My Update Services updated themselves from 2.0 to 3.0 in March. I've worked
through a number of problems with that install and the clients seem to be
updating themselves ok. The SBS console is not reporting any problems with
any client or server, and clients do seem to get updates.

However... I have not seen an update on the server itself in quite a bit,
and the update services console is saying that the server has not been
checking in.

Any idea why all the clients would be ok and not the server?

The servers WindowsUpdate log looks ok.

Hello John,

Thank you for your post.
My name is Gary Wang, and it is my pleasure to work with you on this issue!
Please allow me to confirm that my understandings are correct. As I
understand it, the issue is:

Yours SBS server didn't get updates anymore after upgrade to WSUS 3.0.

If I have misunderstood your concerns please feel free to let me know.

Suggestion :
==============
I would like to suggest that you check the following:

1. Run the following commands on SBS server:

Wuauclt /detectnow
Wuauclt /report

Wait for about 10 minutes then check again.

2. If you are using ISA 2004, please go to ISA management console. Check
the Firewall Policy "SBS Microsoft Update Sites Access Rule" is enabled.

3. Go to
http://www.update.microsoft.com/windowsupdate/v6/default.aspx?ln=en-us
directly on SBS server and check whether your server is fully updated.

4. Pleas ensure you install the WSUS 3.0 thru the following recommended
steps:

Installing Windows Server Update Services 3.0 on Windows Small Business
Server 2003
http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsServerSolutions/SBS/en/library/de2e9436
-f23f-47f0-b840-e8b3e72182751033.mspx?mfr=true

If we cannot resolve the issue after we perform the above steps, please
help me collect some information for further investigation:

Information Need
==============
1. Please help to capture a screenshot of the exact symptom when the error
occurs, save it to *.jpg files and send to me.
2. Gather WSUS MPS Report and send to me.

a. Please download the MPSRPT_SUS.EXE from the following link and then run
this tool to gather some information from the problematic server:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/b/b/1/bb139fcb-4aac-4fe5-a579-30b0bd9
15706/MPSRPT_SUS.EXE

b. Double-click on the MPSRPT_SUS.EXE file.
[Note] This process may take some time; however, it will not have a
negative effect on the performance.

c. A CAB file will be generated in the
%SystemRoot%\MPSReports\MSUS\Bin\Reports\Cab directory called
%COMPUTERNAME%_MPSRPT_SUS.CAB. The CAB file will contain the reports
generated by the MPS Reporting Tool.

My email address is v-gzwang@microsoft.com

I appreciate your time and cooperation. If anything is unclear, please feel
free to let me know. I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Gary Wang(MSFT)

I didn't have time to check for a reply yesterday, I just saw this and went
to do the first step. When I logged in and there was an update waiting to be
installed! However, I checked the Update Services console and the server is
still showing as not having checked in.

I'm going to wait till I install the update and then I will do these steps
and email you the requested info over the weekend. Thanks for your help on
this.

Hi John,

Thank you for your information.

First, I am sorry for the delayed response. Please understand the partner
managed newsgroups are staffed weekdays by Microsoft Support professionals.
Our goal is to provide a one business day response to all posts.

For time critical issues (not business down), we encourage you to contact
CSS directly for more immediate assistance:

International Support (non-US/Canada):
http://support.microsoft.com/common/international.aspx

US and Canada:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;EN-US;OfferProPhone

And after review your log, I would like to suggest that you check the
following steps to reset the approvals to a consistent state on the WSUS
server:

Note: Follow these steps from the WSUS Administration Console

1. Find the "Office 2003 Service Pack 1" update in the updates list. This
may involve changing the Approval and Status filters in the update UI (set
the Status to "Any" and the Approval to "Declined" - if you don't see it
then set the Approval to "Any except Declined"

2. Perform the following steps:

a. First make sure the update is declined. If the update is not yet
declined, right click on the update and decline it.

b. Next, approve the update.

i. Right click on the update and select the "Approve..." option in the
context menu.
ii. In the 'Approve Updates' dialog that opens, just click "OK". Dismiss
the "Approval Progress" dialog that appears.

c. Next, decline the update.

i. Right click on the update and select the "Approve" option in the context
menu.
ii. In the "Approve Updates" dialog that opens, just click "OK". Dismiss
the "Approval Progress" dialog that appears.

For more information, please refer to the following link:

>>First, I am sorry for the delayed response.

Not a problem. It was not a rush item.

Glad you included the link because it would not let me "approve" the
service pack. But I saw a comment about marking it "Not Approved" in the
responses on that page. I think it worked. I forced an update and the log
looked clean, WSUS is showing that the server did report it's status and
SBS is showing a green shield.

So hopefully all is good now.

Thanks so much for your help.

Hi John,

Thanks for your update.

I am glad to know your issue had been resolved.

In order to sharing our experience with the other users and help them to
search/find specific answers more efficiently in the future, I would like
to make a summary here:

Problem description: Yours SBS server didn't get updates anymore after
upgrade to WSUS 3.0. And in windowsupdate.log, we found the error
0x8024400E.

Cause: A recent revision to the "Office 2003 Service Pack 1" update has
resulted in some WSUS 3.0 servers syncing the revised update to enter an
inconsistent state with respect to the update's approvals. When computers
with products related to Office 2003 communicate with such a server, the
Web service is unable to process the approvals resulting in the detection
failure.


Resolution:

1. Find the "Office 2003 Service Pack 1" update in the updates list. This
may involve changing the Approval and Status filters in the update UI (set
the Status to "Any" and the Approval to "Declined" - if you don't see it
then set the Approval to "Any except Declined"

2. Perform the following steps:

a. First make sure the update is declined. If the update is not yet
declined, right click on the update and decline it.

b. Next, approve the update.

i. Right click on the update and select the "Approve..." option in the
context menu.
ii. In the 'Approve Updates' dialog that opens, just click "OK". Dismiss
the "Approval Progress" dialog that appears.

c. Next, decline the update.

i. Right click on the update and select the "Decline" option in the context
menu.
ii. In the "Approve Updates" dialog that opens, just click "OK". Dismiss
the "Approval Progress" dialog that appears.

Also if there are any update, please feel free to let me know.

Have a nice day :

Best regards,

Gary Wang(MSFT)
