I have a fresh install of MS SQL 2005 Developer Edition on my local box. I have just tried to install SP2 and the status reads "failure" for the product "Database Services", instance "MSSQLSERVER".

What could cause this? Do I need to turn of the service before applying the service pack? I supplied it the proper credentials which tested ok during the beginning of install...

Should I just try to install the patch again? How can I verify that the patch has been successfully applied?

Thanks for any help.

When you install this initially, it will ask you to confirm which services that need to be stop.

Run SELECT @@VERSION. If it's 9.00.3042, it means SP2.

Check the SQL log file and see any error on SQL logs as well as windows log file.

In the meantime you may also need to check in SQL server as well.

Use Master
go
select @@version
go

If it gives you 9.00.3042 it means SQL SP2 is installed in your system.
