2010 R3 Service Pack 2

After installing SP2 for BuE 2010 R3 (downloaded from http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH178798), SP2 still shows up for download and install through LiveUpdate.  Help -> About -> Installed Updates shows Service Pack 2 so I assume it installed correctly.  This isn't really a problem, just wanted to bring it to your attention.  If there is any more information I can provide let me know.  Thank you.

There was a repack of SP2.  It could be that the SP2 that you installed is the original SP2 which needs to be replaced by the repack.  Install the SP2 from LU and see whether SP2 appears again.

Thanks for the info. Installing SP2 through LU resolves the issue. Should have mentioned that in the OP. So the problem then is that the 'old' SP2 is the one offered for download http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH178798 which is linked from http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH66724 Is there any way to dl a stand-alone repacked SP2 installer, or retrieve it from the filesystem after running LU? I need a solution so I don't waste bandwidth re-downloading for each install. Thank you.

Hi,


Check the link below for the manual download page. You'd filter for your version of BE...

The only link I found for SP2 directs me to the page I linked in the OP.  I redownloaded and the 32-bit installer has a different checksum from the one I have.  But the 64-bit one is identical, and I had the issue with both architectures.


Edit: The 32-bit file was corrupt, hence the different checksum.  So, it seems that the standalone SP2 installers are still the 'old' version.

Hi,

I am experiencing the same scenario since I also installed the SP2 that was downloaded from Symantec site. If you are saying that the downloaded file was the original installer and the one that we see in Live Update was the re-pack, then what are the major changes between these installers? Is there a link that will show the difference between the two SP2 installers (original vs. re-pack)

Thank You!
