Hi,
I've been having some issues with Windows Update for a couple of weeks now.
Here is my configuration.
Server.
Windows 2008 Server SP2 x86 (version 6.0.6002).
WSUS 3.0 SP2 (Installed from KB972455-x86).
KB2828185 has been installed.
Clients.
Windows 2008 Server SP2 x86 (version 6.0.6002).
Windows Update Agent version 7.6.7600.256.
The issue occured when I updated the WUA to the latest version after installing SP2 on the client machines.
The problem now is that after installing the WSUS patch the versions showing up both in the mmc console and the webservice seem wrong.
Here is what I get when calling the following url: clientwebservice/wusserverversion.xml
<SusServerVersionInfo><Version><Major>3</Major><Minor>1</Minor><Build>7600</Build><QFE>226</QFE></Version><Description>Software Update Services Server</Description></SusServerVersionInfo>
From the mmc console I've got yet another version 3.2.7600.226.
On the client side the WUA is stuck on "Checking Updates". Here is the log when triggering the update manually.
=========== Logging initialized (build: 7.6.7600.256, tz: +0200) ===========

972 cac AU Getting featured update notifications. fIncludeDismissed = true
972 cac AU No featured updates available.Sniffing the traffic shows that the client sends XML requests of different sizes continously but nothing happens on either side. No logs, no reports.
I've deleted the local database (SoftwareDistribution), deleted the machine in WSUS and did a wuauclt.exe /resetauthorization /detectnow on the client. None of this solved the issue.
Changing the configuration of the client to point to Microsoft servers works though. So I assume this has something to do with the web service not being updated on the server.
I ran the KB2828185 path with the /q parameter to generate some logs but it seems to install properly as in the log it returns an error code of 0.
Windows Installer a reconfiguré le produit. Nom du produit : Windows Server Update Services 3.0 SP2. Version du produit : 3.2.7600.226. Langue du produit : 0. Réussite de la reconfiguration ou état d’erreur : 0.
I'd like to know how to make sure that WSUS has been updated correctly but also know what versions I need exactly for this to work. I must say that this whole versionning is way too confusing. 3.1.7600(web service), 3.2.7600 (mmc), 7.6.7600 (client).
Any help will be appreciated.
