Windows – Client hits 80072EE2 error while downloading update from WSUS server

windowswsus

So, the WSUS server is configured to download latest updates from Microsoft and then the other servers would download the update from the WSUS server.

There's no issue for the WSUS server to download updates from Microsoft.

Local servers and computers are able to get the notification of new update, but then the problem occur when they're trying to download from WSUS.

For example, the file server would get notified of 1 new update (100KB) and it starts the download. But then, the download progress would stay at 0% until windows update pops up the error message.

Any idea?

I've done some research on the internet, most of them are about the issue of getting update from Microsoft instead of Local WSUS.

i had this problem but now it has been solved.there is some setting that you have to check.

  1. windows firewall,it should allow connections for private network and domain
  2. you should configure automatic update in group policy ( without enabling this option updating with wsus will not work)
  3. in IIS expand wsus website and select selfupdate and enable directory browsing and do the same job for clientwebservice
  4. in client pc open cmd and type " gpupdate /force " and check for updates

note: in group policy dont forget to set port for specify intranet microsoft update service location like "http://servername:8530" the default port for wsus is 8530
