I am trying to install the .NET framework over Windows Server 2008 build 6001 (if it helps?). I am able to install .NET 3.5, but when trying to install service pack 1 (from the following link) I get the following error.

Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 has encountered a problem during setup. Setup did not complete correctly. windows server 2008

How can I fix this problem?

We've had problems with this before. Some thoughts:

  • Run the setup as an administrator; on one occasion (isolated?) it only worked as the local "administrator" account; it failed even for a domain administrator.
  • Shut down IIS, COM+, etc. first.

Other than that; you'll want to look at the MSI log file.
