I have a problem where KB2494088 (a SQL Server 2008 R2 patch) continually fails to install when I reboot my system. Downloading the manual patch and trying to apply it says:
The SQL Server patch package is part of a general distribution release (GDR). This package cannot be applied since this SQL Server feature has already been patched. To continue, you must install a higher version of the SQL Server patch.
Most other posts (this, this) suggest it's either a failed (or cancelled) past installation or requires a SQL server repair.
I've looked at registry settings and tried the repair option, but nothing seems to work.
