While installing SP1 or any other CU, the error pops up saying that an "error occurred while running detection".
There are a lot of articles out there to run the repair on SharePoint, run the configuration, etc. but none of those worked.
Hmmm... so i decided to unpack the SP1 and create a batch file and run the msp files on all the servers, then run the configuration and wooo hooo.
Everything works (installing the CU, or SP no more problems).
Here is the example for SP1: the contents of the batch files that i created with SP1:
