Hello and thanks for help in advance.

I had an install of WSUS 3.0 on a Server 2012 VM.  It was working for a few months and then the console started showing an error and nothing could be accessed.  One of our techs uninstalled IIS and WSUS and tried to re-install them both and started running into another error that I have been left to fix.  The error happens after the IIS and WSUS roles are installed and the post-install tasks are started.  I have searched the forums for my specific error and have come up with several results that are not the same error as I am encountering.  Here is the error from the failure log.

FixSubscriptionCategories failed. Exception: System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. ---> System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'Microsoft.UpdateServices.Internal.ApiRemoting' threw an exception. ---> System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'Update Services' is denied.

I'm burnt out on ideas on where to go next so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I am having trouble installing the WSUS Role on Server 2012.

I have checked all topics I could find relevant to the topic but have been unable to find a similar log file posted.  

Installer was launched using powershell 

install-windowsfeature -name UpdateServices, UpdateServicesUI -IncludeManagementTools

Install state = True after completion.

I then use wsusutil.exe to set the content directory.

.\wsusutil.exe postinstall CONTENT_DIR=D:\WSUS

The post install task fails with 

Fatal Error: Failed to start and configure WSUS service

If I try to manually start the service in powershell, I get the following error:

2013-08-02 20:25:20  Microsoft.UpdateServices.Administration.CommandException: Failed to start and configure the WSUS service
   at Microsoft.UpdateServices.Administration.PostInstall.Run()
   at Microsoft.UpdateServices.Administration.PostInstall.Execute(String[] arguments)

My setup --> Windows 2008R2 with IIS7

I have installed WSUS 3.0 and i get error "Self-update is not working Event ID 13042".
the clients can get update and can connect to server...

here is how it looks like


here is how it looks in IIS 7

Lawrence, I have been following this topic with great interest.

I have a client I have only just begun managing with a server running SBS2008 SP2, and WSUS 3.0, also reporting Event ID 13042.  WSUS is set up on 8530.  While Sharepoint is installed, it is not located under the Default website.

I have checked to make sure SSL is off for the Default Website, and that anonymous authentication is enabled per all of the KBs.  The SelfUpdate virtual directory is present on the Default Website, points to the appropriate location, and has all of the appropriate security permissions.

The server can update clients just fine, but it cannot update itself, and I have no idea what could be going wrong.  Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Everyone gets everything he wants. Me, I wanted to be a sysadmin. And for my sins --they made me one.

That´s my problem. Help.

I have a group to test the updates. (win 7 x64/ win xp)

Last week I approved some updates: 

This two updates are one of them:

kb2845187 - win 7 x64 . This update wasn´t superseded yet.

kb2845690 - win 7 x64. This update wasn´t superseded yet.

When I generated a report the result::

Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2845187)

Security Updates

Install

Not Applicable

Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2845690)

Not Applicable

The computer details:

All the updates I approved last week are with this status (Not Applicable)

Comments ?

Lyra

We have users who sporadically use laptops at different times during the day so the laptops may be either powered off or hibernating when not being actively used.

There is no specific time of the day on any day of the week that we can count on every or even the majority of the laptops being powered up.

So, if we have automatic installation set for 3AM and the laptops keep missing this scheduled installation time because they are never running and connected to the network at 3AM, will these laptops ever download and install l the updates without an installation deadline?  

I am running a Windows Server 2012 with WSUS. How can I deploy updates for my Windows 8.1 Preview client. Is there an update for WSUS, which I can install? Or what do I have to do? Thanks for any help.

Need to patch around 500+ servers those are not been patched over 3 to 5yrs. looking for an advise on how to implement this activity and what are the best practises/pre-requisites to be followed. kindly share any similar project related documents if any.

Hi everyone,

I have a issue 3 days ago, after I tried to install the KB 2720211. The MMC of WSUS is impossible to open.

This is the report of the issue.

The WSUS server is not using a proxy server or any type of SSL setting.. I cannot sycn to Microsoft update, I have been trying to resolve this error all weekend:

TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSyncWebServices.ServerSync.ServerSyncProxy' threw an exception. ---> System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send.
at Microsoft.UpdateServices.Internal.ClassFactory.CreateInstance(Type type, Object[] args)
   at Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSync.ServerSyncLib.GetWebServiceProxyInternal(UpdateServerConfiguration serverConfig, WebServiceCommunicationHelper webServiceHelper, Boolean useCompressionProxy)

   at Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSync.CatalogSyncAgentCore.RetrieveSubscriptionData()
   at Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSync.CatalogSyncAgentCore.ExecuteSyncProtocol(Boolean allowRedirect)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.. could the WSUS application or the actual database file be corrupted?

Ive been searching everywhere and I cannot find the answer.  I have a disconnected network running Server 2008 R2.  I have everything configured just fine with WSUS.  I recently just approved and exported 500 updates, then imported, approved, and installed those 500.  The company decided they wanted to put MSE on a few machines and want me to push the updates through WSUS. I never approved any MSE definitions. I need to go back and add the latest definitions to my archive. What is the easiest way to do this?  Can I just inject those 3-4 updates into the archive and create a new .cab and .log or do I have to re-export ALL 500 approvals Ive already done and add these 3-4 to it?  Do I overwrite the existing metadata folders on the import server? I cannot find any information on this.

Hello Eveyone,

I dont know exactly what I did, but WSUS and SBS Console Crash.

When I start WSUS and click on UPDATES, under overview it says loading...then after about 5 min I get an "Error: Connection Error" and the whole reset node message.

Under SBS Console, I go to the Security/Updates page, it queries, and after a few minuts that crashes too..

I have tried many fixes, and I am at a complete halt without knowing further what to do.

If i Unistall WSUS (with intention to reinstall WSUS from scratch and new database), and select to remove all three options

-WSUS 3.0 SP2 Database
-Log Files
-Downloaded Update File

What else will be affected on My SBS2008 Server? Will this take down my Remote Web Workplace, and OWA etc? or does it have nothing to do with those areas?

I read horrifying reports that the SBS Console stops working altogether when tampering with Uninstalling/reinstalling WSUS, this is something i do not want to have, i use the Console quite often...(adding user, pop connector etc)

Please some insight..

btw, I have tried repairing the SBS Console...removing orphaned objects etc... 

Our WSUS Working fine whenever i approve any update it sends to all domain Computers.

But, For 2008 Server it hardly send any updates, my questions are:

- How can i get the latest Updates Only for 2008 Server and then deploy these updates to Specific list of Servers?

- How can i know that which update should be approved for server 2008?

Hi,

Why are exchange 2013 updates not included in WSUS?

---

With kind regards, Bas van den Dikkenberg

We have just re-installed the windows update services pack and it doesn't work. We have to install new updates manually.

If we go to configuration, we cannot change anything.

SBS 2011 works fine in all other services, like exchange, etc.

Please, help.

I started getting a connection error when opening the admin console of wsus. looking through the blogs everything suggested it to be better to uninstall than to trouble shoot. I have uninstalled wsus and cannot re-install it.

When I try to install wsus using the server add role feature I get an error that IIS is not installed. I added IIS role and now get an error message "The update could not be found. There maybe a network connection issue"

When I use wsussetup.exe (KB972445) I get the error message IIS is not installed

I have no idea where to go from here as I am new to wsus

Hey there,

i got install sce 2010 about one year ago. Update works fine, also some updates from the partner catalog. For example, Adobe Flash and Adobe Reader. 

No i have some problem with the new clients which come to SCE 2010, they got near all updates. Not all, because Adobe Flash und Adobe Reader (which is included with SCUP) cannot be installed on the clients or let me say it otherwise. The didnt find the path to the client. In the SCE 2010 console when i click on this update they are shown in the section "not applicable". Where can i look why these apps are not applicable? 

fyi: the updates are for x64 and x86 so thats not the problem and the problem only exits on new clients, on existing clients all works fine.

Thanks for your help!

Hi All,

Please be patient with me as I'm not yet WSUS expert

I'm getting frustrated that all computers not talking to the Wsus server. 

I have research about the error that I'm getting but still could not find a proper solution. 

Need your advice please. Thank you

We have an existing WSUS 3.0 SP2 server running on Server 2008 R2. It stores updates locally and services over 4,000 client machines which are Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Server 2008 R2. We have begun introducing Windows 8 and Server 2012 clients over the past few weeks, and most of those are updating as expected from our WSUS server. Update KB2734608 was installed on the WSUS server prior to deployment of any Windows 8 or Server 2012 clients.

Last week we deployed the first Server 2012 machine in our environment that is intended to be isolated from the internet but still has network access to our WSUS server, and it is having problems checking for updates. When an admin clicks the Check for Updates link, Windows Update freezes for approximately 12 minutes and remains unresponsive. Also the WindowsUpdate.log file does not update during this time.

After the long ~12 minute delay, Windows Update completes successfully and obtains any needed updates.

I have run the following commands in a batch file but doing so does not appear to have any effect on the behavior.

net stop bits
net stop wuauserv
ipconfig /flushdns
cd C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Network\Downloader
del qmgr0.dat
del qmgr1.dat
cd C:\
rd C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution -Recurse
net start bits
net start wuauserv

The WindowsUpdate.log file shows attempts to obtain wuredir.cab from ds.download.windowsupdate.com and fe1.update.microsoft.com multiple times each with a long delay each time, after which the client finally tries our WSUS server and succeeds very quickly. Automatic updates throughout the day do not appear to suffer from the failed attempts to access the internet.

Hello everyone. 

I have a W2012 server with WSUS and SCCM2012 and around 90 client computers and 15 server in our environment. 

Clients and servers are updating correctly using the WSUS Server via GPO. However both clients and servers seem to not report their status to the WSUS Server. Some computers report once and no more but other have the status of "Not yet reported"

Many of our computers have the same SID because their setup without sysprep. I am in the process of changing the SID's on those machines (i read in an article this could be problematic for WSUS). All of my machines show up in Update Services console and i manually assign them to computer groups. 

I've tried many, many different things that I've read in different forums and posts<- Including:

* Using the WSUS Client Diagnostic Tool. 

* Triple checking the Firewall settings and disabling it for a bit. 

* Reading and trying to understand the Windowsupdate.log on few client machines and the WSUS Server. 

* Using  wuauclt /detectnow and /reportnow to see if clients report. 

Any answer regarding this issue is greatly appreciated. Please also comment if further explanation is required.
