The Windows Installer Cache are located at c:windowsinstaller folder which stores important files for applications installed using the Windows Installer technology and should not be deleted.

After doing SQL Patching changes continuously for so many servers without any Issue yesterday when Implementing SQL Patching on one of the Critical Server finally the day has arrived and faced Missing of MSI & MSP error issue
When I run SQL Server 2008R2 ServicePack 3 Initial Setup wizard itself not getting opened and throwing below error :
As per the Error I have fixed the Issue of Missing File by Copying the file .MSI which was mentioned in above to INSTALLER Folder from SQL Media and started running Service Pack 3 again , still having issue and got other error as below :
I have fixed this error as well in the same way which I did as above and Initiated Service Pack 3 again now this time the Initial setup wizard was opened and the setup was started

After clicking the Update button in few minutes an error was popped up saying another MSI file was missing as it is not the best way to fix these MSI and MSP errors also not sure how many files are Missing.
So, I have Cancelled the Setup and checked for Missing Files using FindSQLInstalls.vbs script
which helped me to find missing of MSI & MSP files before we start the ServicePack 3 Setup.
Script was found in MICROSOFT site https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/969052/how-to-restore-the-missing-windows-installer-cache-files-and-resolve-p#%2Fen-gb%2Fkb%2F969052
Copied the script to Server ‘ XXX ‘and saved at Location E:MSIFindSQLInstalls.vbs ..Ran the script from Command Prompt by redirecting the directory from Drive C to E:MSI
FindSQLInstalls.vbs E:MSIoutput.txt
Note : This script needs Elevated Administrative Privileges , Open the Command Prompt with Run As Administrator
The output file contains all the Missing Files of MSI & MSP which needs to fix before staring the SP setup
Open the output.txt file and search with key word ” DOES NOT “
Below Screenshot for finding out of MSP file
Below Screenshot for finding out MSI File
Copied the Location( COPY “Path”) from the txt file and kept in a side which is Highlighted in above screen shots
Now opened the Media file and copied the MSI file to C:WindowsInstaller Folder and Renamed the MSI File to Cached name which is shown in Error
Again searched with key word ” DOES NOT ” till the end of the txt file and found total 25 Missing Files
Fixed all Missing files and ran the Script again in Command Prompt FindSQLInstalls.vbs E:MSIoutput.txt to check that no files are missing before starting the SP installation.
Opened the Output file and searched for key word ” DOES NOT ” this time I didn’t find any Missing File which Needs to take Action
So started running SP3 but after Fixing the MSI and MSP files it asked for Server RESTART
I requested windows team to reboot,once server is came UP Initiated SP3 , this time patch was completed successfully.
After SP completion it was asked for RESTART of Server again and once the Server is Up I started Installing Security Update and this time again some new Issue I faced which is shown below :
The location which is showing in above error was not exist on Drive H …So, I have clicked browse button and given the correct path of the File sqlncli.msi and clicked OK
But popped up with error not a valid one
So, Clicked ok and Cancel but the setup was Running and Finally the Security Update was Successfully Applied
The Security Update KB article is Reflecting KB4057113 and all looks Good .
NOTE :
1. The SQL MediaService Pack Security Update Cumulative Update any patch or ISO file we need to EXTRACT Manually first to a Specific location or folder and then run the installation by clicking on “SETUP.exe” file which is Best Practice for Installation
