I have been trying to apply CU2 to my MS SQL 08 which is SP1, version 10.0.
2531.0

1) I got the hotfix (SQLServer2008-KB958186-x64.exe) from Microsoft and
extract it to my C: drive.

2) I double click to open SQLServer2008-KB958186-x64.exe and it does extracts
a folder to my e drive.

3) Program entitled "Install a SQL Server Patch" opens up.

4) I click oK

5) I accept the license terms

6) On the select features page, I can't select/unselect any features, so I
click ok.

7) Then I get a error window that tells me to check to see what are the
validation error.

8) The error I get is "There are no SQL Server instances of shared features
that can be updated on this computer.".

I'm stuck. WHat do I do now?

Just to make things more interesting, when I ran
SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'),
SERVERPROPERTY ('edition')
SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'),
SERVERPROPERTY ('edition')


I got the following results:
10.0.2531.0 SP1 Standard Edition (64-bit)

But when I opened C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\
Log\Summary.txt file, the version for the Database Engine Services is 10.1.
2531.0.

OMG! I have been trying to install the first one when I should try to install
the first one.

Thanks Kevin for asking that question because obvisouly I took a wrong turn
right when I should have gone left!
