Hi All,

I was trying to install the patch MS03-031 on our SQL
cluster and it would fail all the time. The error in the
log files would be to the tune of:

"Setup failed to copy file : replmerg.sql, Error code: 112"

It would fail at this step but would fail with different
files. I tried this using our SQL and Windows
authentication. This happened 4-5 times as I kept on
retrying.

Finally, right before placing a call to MSFT, I tried it
once more and this time it installed successfully!?!? Can
someone explain to me why this failed numerous times
before and all of a sudden, installed fine on the 6th try??

Thanks in advance,
M Sandico
