WSUS: Windows Update Server. Most common Problems. FAQ

Posted by admin on 10.04.2014

Connect to SQL Internal WSUS Datbase on diffrrent OS:

Auf 2003:    \\.\pipe\MSSQL$MICROSOFT##SSEE\sql\query
Auf 2012R2: \\.\pipe\microsoft##WID\tsql\query

Missing “SelfUpdate” in Default Website when running WSUS under 8530

  

To make sure that the self-update tree is working correctly, first make sure that there is a Web site set up on port 80 of the WSUS server. You must have a Web site that is running on port 80, even if you put the WSUS Web site on a custom port. The Web site that is running on port 80 does not have to be dedicated to WSUS. WSUS uses the site on port 80 only to host the self-update tree. After verifying the Web site on port 80, you should run the WSUS script to guarantee a correct configuration of self-update on port 80. Open a Command prompt on the WSUS server and type the following:

cscript  WSUSInstallDirectory \setup\installselfupdateonport80.vbs (WSUSInstallDirectory is the directory in which WSUS is installed).

For more information about SelfUpdate, see Issues with Client Self-Update on Microsoft TechNet or download the Windows Server Update Services 3.0 SP2 Operations Guide from the Microsoft Download Center.

 

Sample from WSUS Server running under Server 2008R2 on Port 8530

Wrong WSUS:

Missing Virtual Directories under the “Default Web Site”

 

Correct:

Fix the self-update virtual directory on port 80:

C:\>cd “Program Files”

C:\Program Files>cd “Update Services”

C:\Program Files\Update Services>cd setup

C:\Program Files\Update Services\setup>cscript installselfupdateonport80.vbs

Command Line Options fuer WSUS Client

The following are the command line for wuauclt.exe

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc708617(ws.10).aspx

Most used:

wuauclt.exe /reportnow

wuauclt.exe /reportnow /detectnow

wuauclt.exe /UpdateNow

wuauclt.exe /resetauthorization /detectnow

 Option

Description

/a /ResetAuthorization

Initiates an asynchronous background search for applicable updates. If Automatic Updates is disabled, this option has no effect.

/r /ReportNow

Sends all queued reporting events to the server asynchronously.

/? /h /help

Shows this help information.

Client Version XP/W7:


/AutomaticUpdates
/DemoUI
/IdleShutdownNow
/ShowOptions
/ShowWUAutoScan
/UpdateNow
/SelfUpdateUnmanaged
/SelfUpdateManaged
/CloseWindowsUpdate
/ShowWindowsUpdate
/ShowWU
/ResetEulas
/ResetAuthorization
/ShowSettingsDialog
/RunHandlerComServer
/ReportNow
/DetectNow

2003R2 Server version:

/DetectNow
/ReportNow
/RunHandlerComServer
/RunStoreAsComServer
/ShowSettingsDialog
/ResetAuthorization
/ResetEulas
/ShowWU
/ShowWindowsUpdate
/SelfUpdateManaged
/SelfUpdateUnmanaged
/UpdateNow
/ShowWUAutoScan
/ShowFeaturedUpdates
/ShowOptions
/ShowFeaturedOptInDialog
/DemoUI

Most of these options don’t give any noticable response, but that may be because of the state of the service. The command ‘wuauclt /ResetAuthorization /DetectNow’ worked for me right away.
