Never mind that last email... just noticed in the settings that the user
account wasn't right.

That just means it is a WSUS issue.  Go back and check within IIS that
the virtual directory has the correct permissions and that it is not
shutdown for some reason.  I did find references to some WSUS client and
server diagnosictics on the Microsoft site but would never would have
even looked if Event ID had not told me they existed.  They did help me
find and fix my issue.

Was able to get Vista and W7 to update once I moved those computers out
of the OU used by WSUS.

Sorry forgot to add look at the permissions on the Virtual directory I
were messed up.  Fixing those and restarting the server fixed most if
not all of the issues.

Just checked the WSUS server and didn't find any errors.  When you went
to your selfupdate site, did you do this in IE?  When I type in the site
name into IE I receive the following:

 

HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found.
Internet Information Services (IIS)

I just fixed that issue yesterday myself.  I got a clue to the issue
from looking up the error codes I found on my WSUS server.  Seems the
selfupdate site was shutdown.

Is anyone else out there, with Vista , having problems trying to get to
the Windows Updates?  When we do we receive Error Code 80072EFD.  When
looking into that error, it mentions that the update.microsoft.com
<http://update.microsoft.com/>  (and others) needs to be placed into the
firewall... which they have been.  Disabled VIPRE and the Windows
Firewall, restarted the wuauserv and renamed the softwaredistribution
folder and still can't get Vista to update.  All our XP machines are
able to get to the update site without any problems.

 

Any ideas?
