So I upgraged the GUI to version 6.2 and then I click on the little icon on my server to upgrade my server (the GUI and the server are not on the same machine).
It then warns me about the 14 day trial (I have a license), and then tells me in the next window that "The current version of the server components is not the same as the version of the graphical user interface."
Current component version: 5.4.0.55
Version to install: 6.2.0.134
So the only thing I can click is finish and when I do, I get to the activity window...where it seems to be attempting to install the server component installation.
Here are the details:

Is there anything special that I need to do to make this successful if I do this manually? Do I need uninstall the existing version first or will the installer do that for me?
If that is the case, see the recommended steps in the above article to address this issue, and also possible workarounds.
Thanks.

I am thinking that there is some issue with me using the RedGate GUI on one machine and trying to upgrade another machine....not sure why, but I am betting that is the reason.
Can I just run the sqbserversetup.exe manually on the SQL Server? If I run the installer, will it take care of the previous version or do I need to remove it first?
BTW, here are my details:
Host GUI: Windows Server 2003 R2
SQL server: Windows Server 2008
SQL Server: SQL Server 2008
Thanks.
