Cannot Upgrade VSS 4503E Sup8E via ISSU

I've tried to upgrade our 4503 Sup8E VSS Switch via ISSU described here:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst4500/15-1-2/XE_340/configuration/guide/config/vss.html

I've tried the one step and the four step method without success.

There is the following error Message durimng the Upgrade Process:

%C4K_REDUNDANCY-2-IOS_VERSION_CHECK_FAIL: IOS version mismatch. Active supervisor version is 15.2(2)E (cat4500es8-UNIVERSALK9-M). Standby supervisor version is 15.2(2)E5 (cat4500es8-UNIVERSALK9-M). Redundancy feature may not work as expected.

Versions:

So i like to upgrade from 03.06.00 to 03.06.05 (Enterprise)

I've checked the Feature navigator already but i found no advice that there is a incompatibility between these both versions.

What do i wrong?

Best regards!

ISSU sometimes work.  And when it doesn't work you perform the old-fashion method.  

Post the output to the command "sh bootv" and "sh version".  I want to see the boot variable string.  If both are the same, reboot the chassis.
