error installing CU6

Today I was installing CU6 and I got this message. Can I roll-back or How to fix?

Try this and see if it helps....

  1. Go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\FIP-FS\Data
  2. Deleted the file "Configuration.xml" and renamed "Configuration.xml.back" to Configuration.xml.
  3. Then try to re-install Exchange Mailbox Server.

Perhaps you can go for newer CU as well instead of CU6. CU9 is the latest one...

HI Amit,

I already did without lucky. I've delete configuration.xml and renamed configuration.xml.bak , run again Cu6 and receive the same error, also i  have tried  copy those files from another server with just mailbox rule and updated to there but doesn't work too. at this moment I moving mailboxes to another server for next Monday everybody works normal and I will try to update directly to CU9.

I already knew about cu9 but I thought I needed to install all Cumulative updates one by one until the last version, i didn't know I could update from from cu5 to cu9 directly.
