SQL 6.5 sp5a install error - ??

[doctorj]

I am trying to install sp5a on my SQL 6.5 installation but am getting this error:<br>
&quot;Setup initialization could not be successfully completed.<br>
cfgchar.exe could not be executed. Please check the relevant<br>
out file&quot;<br>
The readme file in the sp lists this error as being caused by quotation marks in the PATH statement. I checked that, I don't have any quote marks in my path. I do have more than 3 MB in the master db as well. I checked the cfgchar.out file and it lists a bunch of files as being copied and the last line has this error:<br>
isql failed - Exit Code: 1<br>
<br>
Now when I do the select @@version command this is the result:<br>
Microsoft SQL Server 6.50 - 6.50.416 (Intel X86)
Jan 23 1999 14:10:24

<br>
<br>
So this indicates that sp5a is successfully installed correct? Do I need to be concerned about the cfgchar.exe error?

I'm not sure whether your update succesful or not but<br>I'm sure that you shouldnt run update exe from a network drive...<br>I've just overcame that error message running update exe file from local drive...<br>good luck..
