How to revoke this...

I downloaded the files from msdn...

I suspect the browser might asked me to run insted saving while i downloded the package..

I havent realize up on downloading..

Is there any way to revoke this process..

i have tried un istalling in the Control panel..
it is not allowing me to do such..

Is there any way that i can resolve this issue...

Please suggest..



I havent got any kind of error message.

I was asked to make an update of my current sql server (RTM 2012) to Sp1 with cu4.

I am aware of the process of installation..

I need to upgrade it first to Sp1 then i need to apply cu4..

But, while i download those files. I got an regular permission to download multiple files.

I keep saying yes to download for all the files i need.

But i realized later that i might have said YES to RUN instead of saving it locally in my system..

Before i figured it out. i started my regular process i supposed to do...

But that was too late. i found that was messed up with my server...

Now i tried to revert them back by uninstalling from control pannel..

But my tries go invain..

Not allowing me to uninstall...

What am i supposed to do now..

Is there any other way i can solve this..

and one more thing is... i checked for the version number in sql server it does show the SQL RTM version number...
No update was done to the SQL Server..

If you don't already have SP1 applied, at least from what I read on this page, CU4 should not have been applied. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2833645

Check if CU4 was applied using this:
SELECT @@version
If it was applied, you should see 11.0.3368.0.
If it was not applied it you should see the version number corresponding to RTM, which is 11.00.2100.60

If it was installed that means you have SP1. If you just want to uninstall CU4, that page describes how to do it.

There is nothing to uninstall. SQL wouldn't allow you to install CU4 prior to SP1 being installed.

So what is "messed up"?

Then why am i not able to install the Sp1 on the machine.

I could not see any kind of files saved after extracting the downloaded file.

I also tried by downloading a new file and do the same.. but could not perform the upgrade.

I also used CMD to install the SP1, turns invain...

Thanks,
Raj

I have checked the Version numbers james, but i could see only the RTM, 11.00.21...60 but not SP1, 11.0.3000.0 or not CU4 11.0.3368.0


I also tried to uninstall it through the ADD/REMOVE programs in control pannel, but io couldnot able to uninstall those 2 files which are SP1 and CU4....

They doesnt show what the sizes of the files..

I couldnot uninstall even by using CMD.

That means you have RTM installed. You don't have SP1 installed and you don't have CU4 installed. Do you see SP1 and CU4 in control panel? Do you have more than one instance of SQL Server installed on the box?

You are going to need to go into further detail, but it sounds like you have the wrong download.

Here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35575

Scroll down through the downloads and select one of the last two files to download. If your system is 64-bit, then grab the 64-bit file.

Could you reply with a little more information? We can't see your computer, so you need to go into detail. "No Luck" isn't helping us help you.

Sorry Tara,

I have tried the way u suggested.
As it is developer machine we are planning to make a new VM for it.

But what if i might had done the same on the production box.

What is the reason i am not able to uninstall a single file.

With out SP1 installed a cummulative cannot be installed even attempted, but why it was shown at the Uninstall program in Control panel.

I was confused, some time we face weirsd issues which can be solved easily, the obly thing i am lacking is an speck of idea.

I would see when my mind would have a spark in this case...
i am not an expert to think in all ways

:(

You don't have SP1 or CU4 installed, so there is nothing to uninstall. You don't seem to be downloading a good SP1 file, and I suspect there is something wrong with the computer you are using.
