I'm getting this error when trying to apply a patch on a Windows Server 2003 
box:

MSI (s) (D8:EC) [15:46:34:054]: Transforming table Error.

DEBUG: Error 2920:  Source directory not specified for file <file ID>.

Now it seems that this error only occurs on W2k3 and when I'm applying another 
patch on top of a previous patch (that happened to update the same file).

I read up some more and thought it might be because I wasn't setting the 
SequenceStart on the patch family. I looked at the patch with Orca and found 
that the first one (that preceded the failure) was setting the new file with a 
Sequence of 2, which was the same as a different file in the original install. 
Now my new patch has SequenceStart set properly (at 1020 right now), but the 
install still fails with the same error. Did the previous patch (with no 
SequenceStart set) make the file unpatchable on W2k3?
