SQL Server 2008 continually asking you to reboot even after you just rebooted

  • Article

There have been reports that SQL Server 2008 will ask you to reboot after just rebooting.  This problem is happening because several applications are marking files in such a way that SQL Server 2008 Setup interprets as a reboot is needed.

 

If you experiencing this issue, you can add the following command line to the Setup:

/SKIPRULES=RebootRequiredCheck

You also need to add the Setup scenario to run to the command like. You need to add /Action=Install or /Action=Upgrade to the command line.

 

You should only use this command line if you are experiencing the issue describe above.

 

This issue is also documented in Knowledge based article: https://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=2008982
