I just got completed installing MS03-031 on one of my machines. The installation was OK, up until the very last part.
MS03-031 starts SQL Server at the end of its installation. Appearantly, it does not detect that the SQL Server has started sucessfully, and the installation program eventually errors out.
My fear was that I have the files for MS03-031 installed, but the master database itself may or may not be updated.
I then went to another machine and first shut down SQL Server and installed the patch. Everything was sucessful. I checked the log and noticed that there were no additional steps after the SQL Server restart.
It may be that you have to have SQL Server shut down prior to installing ms03-031. I'm still looking into it, but what's been everyone else's experience with this install?

I have done this one 4 machine specifically and none have seen this issue. All were live when started.

Correction. The patch does run some SQL Scripts. One of which is replmerg.sql.
So I guess I have a little more work to do.
