WSUS not downloading updates, and 287 downloads are pending (some are superseded)

Hello,

I have read in several locations some troubleshooting steps to take to make sure that a WSUS server instance can download files, including firewall problems, and even this interesting thread where an expired thread cause a downstream server to not properly reconcile it's files to it's DB.

I have several updates that I have approved, but have not downloaded.

I have attempted to perform a reconcile of downloaded files against the DB using `wsusutil.exe reset` and have had no luck.  I am using bitsadmin.exe to monitor the download queue, and nothing is populating.

A good example of this is KB943729; it is approved, not superseded, and I can verify that the file is not located on the drive.

I have also retried downloads of all updates that aren't superseded through the UI ("cancel download"> "retry download").

I see the following error in bitsadmin output, but have concluded that it is irrelevant:

I will perform a server cleanup now (cleanup: unneeded update files, expired updates, superseded updates), then reattempt `wsusutil.exe reset` again.

What else could be the problem?  What else can I look into?


Thanks,

Matt

[update]

declined expired updates: 0
Declined superseded updates: 102

[update 2]

After allowing WSUS to hang out by itself for the night, it appears to have downloaded any updates that are not superseded.  I verified this by right-clicking on the example target update KB943729> file information> located the filename and patch in the file URI, and located it on the local disk  ..\wsuscontent\WsusContent\e0\E174C41CE3DCBD5C8922D6D1C39DF1BE425A70E0.exe.

I think we're good here.
