    SQL 2008 Cluster - The current SKU is invalid.

    After creating new SQL Server failover cluster node, trying to add the 2nd
    node to the SQL failover cluster, after entering the product key (same key
    used for 1st node installation), hit next, I'm getting an error:

    SQL Server Setup encountered the following error:

    The current SKU is invalid.


    I dont know what to do.... im 100% sure that the prod key i the right one.

    For the complete code on how to bypass this error go to this link:

    First time I solved this error using this hotfix

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/957459

    but my config - two nodes active/active cluster.
    And when I add second node to second SQL instance I get this error again.

    Re-apply does not help.

    Resolution - I copy the key from DefaultSetup.ini and delete file. Then I retry to install 2nd node and enter the key manualy.

    "DefaultSetup.ini" is located in E:\x64\DefaultSetup.ini
    My workaround is change the key to be an invalid key and click back to enter the correct key. It works...

    Error - never mind
