.net 2.0 mess
 

I have a w2003R2 server 32bits whose .NET 2.0 is messed.

Under CPannel, add/remove/WinComponents, .NET2.0 shows as uninstalled.

I select the item, click OK, it installs but apparently nothing is
installed. Coming back to WindowsComponents it remains unckecked.

Can't also install from dornetfx.exe because it says that it can't find the
path for ...\v2.0.50727\Microsoft.Build.Framework.dll. Al that moment the
file is there, of course.

Thanks for help,
Martins

Hi Alexey,

I've been there already.

msiexec /unregister and msiexec /regserver done

Use the Repair command on the Windows Installer cache file:
there is no installer cache file.

dotnetfx.exe /t:%temp% /c:"msiexec.exe /fvecms %temp%\netfx.msi"
says: To install this product please run Install.exe

Manually remove and then reinstall the .NET Framework 2.0
There is no URTTemp folder
There is no mscoree.dll file

The v2.0.50727 folder is in Framework folder, I deleted it.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v2.0.50727
No v2.0.50727 under NDP

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramewor k\policy\v2.0
No V2.0 under policy

Windows Installer CleanUp Utility (Msizap.exe) does not show any v2.0

Msizap TP {7131646D-CD3C-40F4-97B9-CD9E4E6262EF}
Produces lots or message lines (I can post if needed).

Content of %Temp% was deleted except for 4 files (in use).

Trying to install .net framework 2.0
... it says validating install, stopping services, Copying new files,
building executables, binding executables, writing registry values,
Installing assemblers, then: about Microsoft.Build.Framework.dll it says the
system can not find the path specified.

I'm still stuck
Martins

yes, it looks tricky

I suppose you have downloaded correct versions and you have admin
permissions on the server. I could only suggest to check if Windows
Installer is not "corrupted".

Dotnetfx.exe requires Windows Installer 3.0
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Try to download it and install

Windows Installer 3.0
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Maybe this would help to run installation properly after that...

Re: .net 2.0 mess
 

Alexey,

I have admin permissions on the server.

Trying to install Windows Installer, I get:

Setup has detected that the service pack version of the system is newer than
the update you are applying. There is no need to install this update.

Could something somehow be hooked to something related to the .net 2.0 and
prevent it to be installed?

I am entering the twilight zone. This is the 3rd day of trying to solve this
problem. I could reinstall .net1.0 and 1.1 without much problems, but .net
2.0 has been quite difficult.

Thanks
Martins

I found a post referred to a problem similar to your case. Try to
follow steps 3-7 to see if it helps
http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archi...7/8108332.aspx

I would also recommend you to check if Windows Event Log has more
specific error message to point you in the right direction

I've done that. The problem s that .net 2.0 is not shown as installed
anywhere.

Trying step 7, I get this funny answer:

"None of the products that are addressed by this software update are
installed on this computer.
Click Cancel to exit setup."

I tried
NDP20SP2-KB958481-x86.exe, NDP30SP2-KB958483-x86.exe and NDP35SP1-
KB958484-x86.exe and they all say the same!

CPU is Intel Core 2 duo E6750, 2.6Gig, 2GigRAM.

Thanks
Martins

Re: .net 2.0 mess
 

Looking after log files, I found out many many of these messages (they seem
all the same) in Application log:

The description for Event ID ( 10005 ) in Source ( MsiInstaller ) cannot be
found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or
message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able
to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and
Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Product:
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 -- Error 25015.Failed to install assembly
'C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Mic rosoft.Build.Framework.dll'
because of system error: The system cannot find the path specified.

Looking for "error 25015. failed to install assembly" in Google I see
many suggestions to rename or delete v2.0.50727 folder and start
installation again.

Plus I found an interesting topic on Microsoft.com site, take a look
maybe this helps
