.NET SP1 Installation

Dated: September 02, 2004

We plan to install SP1 for .NET framework 1.1 on all our Windows servers in order to resolve some of the stability issues we have been facing with ASP.NET

The scheduled install will take place at exactly 5AM EDT (60 minutes from now). This installation is expected to cause a maximum of 5 minutes of outage of each of our servers

Although we endeavor to give at least a 1 day notification of any such scheduled outages to our customers, installing this update is especially urgent for us and we are not willing to delay its install given the nature of some of the ASP.NET issues our servers have been facing

The installation was completely smoothly on all servers but Win5

The installation on Win5 had an issue midway and failed. Win5 was put back online almost immediately after the start of the installation and our technical team is currently working on the issue. We know what happened, we are working on how to prevent it from happening during a second install attempt that will be performed shortly

We have started the installation on Win5 once again. This should take a few minutes

Completed smoothly…
