Hi All,

I'm having problem patching on a RTM + SP1 based master.
I have the file version of the file incremented, higher than that of the previous SP1.

The patch works perfectly on RTM but not on RTM +SP1.
I cannot find the SELMGR error in the log file.
ProductVersion of the upgradedImage is incremented. ProductCode remain.

I did not see the line, Caching "Component" from "location" for baseline 0 in my RTM + SP1 log.

But for RTM log file, Prior to the caching statement, I see that there is this Action start InstallFiles. for successful patching.

Please advice what could be the problem.

Thanks,
angp

Found the problem. It is the Component's GUID that differs.

Had another issue. Not related to my previous issue.
This time round, the situation is, I have additional files to be patched on top of RTM and RTMM + SP1. So my SP2 contains SP1 patched files + its own set of files.I realized that these new files will not be patched.How MSIMSP knows that these files needed patching for SP2? I had these files versioned set to SP2 a higher version than RTM and SP1. But they are not patched.

From MSIMSP log I only see: "Files differ: 'd:\test\SP2\abc.dll', '\\server\RTM\abc.dll'
Patch file created: FTK=abc.dll; temp location=test\08085.HDR."
but

for files that were patched in both SP1 and SP2 I'm able to see:

"Files differ: 'd:\test\SP2\abc.dll', '\\server\RTM\abc.dll'
'\\server\RTM\abc.dll', 'd:\test\SP1\abc.dll'
Patch file created: FTK=abc.dll; temp location=test\08086.HDR."

Anyone encountered such issue???

What should I do to fix this issue?

Thanks,
angp
