Hi everyone,
When installing .NET Framework 3.5, I get the following error message:
Has anyone had the same error?

.NET 3.5 is different from other features. Its files are not included with a normal installation. There, you have to specify a location for the installation files or have the machine connected to the internet so it can reach Microsoft and download the files. The files are located in the \sources\sxs folder on the distribution media. There is an option when selecting to add this feature to include an alternate destination from which to obtain the files.
Hi dude -d,
You need to manually install it because its not automatically installed during Windows Server 2012 installation. Use the following command:
$path
=
"H:\sources\sxs"
Add
-WindowsFeature
NET
-Framework
-Core
-Source
$path
Note: The DVD source of Windows Server 2012 has to be mapped. In my case, H (yours may be D by default) is the name of the DVD volume and the
folder sources\sxs includes many components and packages. One of them is .NET Framework 3.5.
If you need to build many servers this might come in handy. The post describes how to integrate .net 3.5 into a OSD task sequence

I tried every suggestion here
and elsewhere. I found the solution on someone's blog. Check to see if
you have the either or both of the following windows updates installed
and uninstall them. Once I uninstalled them, I was able to install .Net
Framework
3.5 on server 2012 using the server manager, power shell, or the
command line.
Remove KB2769166 & KB2966827
Ding ding! We have a winner! After trying all the suggestions here, DISM, the Powershell command, and multiple installation media, razorbakill has a working solution. Uninstalled KB2966827 and ran the install through Powershell using...
Install-WindowsFeature name NET-Framework-Core source <drive>:\sources\sxs\
Installation was a success! However, Powershell did not immediately report that it had succeeded. But if you run Get-WindowsFeature you will see it is installed.
Happy hunting for bonked updates! Once again, Microsoft: Stop breaking your own OS's functionality with updates.
Razorbakill!
Thank you, been scratching my head for a couple of hours.
The Oscar goes to razorbakill!
Removed KB2966827, put the DVD in, ran the Server Manager Feature Installer, set the source to <DVD:>/sources/sxs -> installs flawlessly.
Thx!
I've been beating on this problem myself for several days. I have an identical server that I've installed at a customer's location that seems to be working fine, the one in my office that I purchased and installed at the same time isn't working!
The alternate source wouldn't work. The "go to windows update" in group policy to disable WSUS as a source . . . didn't work. Running DISM from the command line didn't work. It wouldn't even allow me to go to http://www.update.microsoft.com/ without a 404 error. Dim bulb finally started to glow faintly . . . I had my server set up to update itself from WSUS via group policy setting. I disabled that GP link and voila! I could install features.
Just checked on customer Group Policies on identical server that has been working fine . . . their server is has a GPO linked to the server that sets up WSUS for their server. So why does that one work and not mine? Something different, but somehow related to WSUS and updates (at least in my "testing").
See http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2734782 for those procedures that didn't work for me but did for others.
Thanks razorbakill, for me the offending update was KB2966828. I also had to install .Net 3.5 via Powershell instead of Server Manager like G.Clayton did.
i had the problem too, after uninstall KB2966828 the install of the DotNet Feature via powershell is succesfull.
My problem was also KB2966828.
Ran from command line;
dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFX3 /all /Source:<Drive Letter>:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
Installed fine.
Hello,
I would like to share my experience in this.
Just kick off security updates 2966827 and 2966828. Do the uninstall the things and reboot server.
Then go ahead and run the elevated cmd prompt, type below cmd and hit enter.
DISM /Online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:NetFx3 /All
Just make sure that you have connected to internet.
I have tried all the possibilities but finally i picked up this one. it works for me in windows server 2012.
I have extracted the above info from sources https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3002547 and https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn482069.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
