Hi everyone,
This morning I applied KB2720211 to my WSUS Server (WSUS 3.0 SP2 on Windows 2008R2) and rebooted it. Since then, it's consistently failing to sync to Microsoft Update. Here's the exact error I get when trying to sync:
TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSyncWebServices.ServerSync.ServerSyncProxy' threw an exception. ---> System.Net.WebException: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized.
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.ServerSyncLib.GetWebServiceCompressionProxy(UpdateServerConfiguration serverConfig, WebServiceCommunicationHelper webServiceHelper)
at Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSync.CatalogSyncAgentCore.RetrieveSubscriptionData()
at Microsoft.UpdateServices.ServerSync.CatalogSyncAgentCore.ExecuteSyncProtocol(Boolean allowRedirect)
The "HTTP status 401: Unauthorized" makes me think that something is wrong on the Microsoft Update side, but I'm not 100% sure about that. Any ideas? I'm not going through a proxy server - my WSUS server is using direct connections and has an
unrestricted internet connection.
Thanks!
