Today after installing patches to the WSUS server, it stopped working after the restart.
What I should have done, is take a nice backup of the System state before installing the patches!
In any case, upon restart the machine came up, but the following types of errors came up:
I had to set the Web Publishing service to NOT allow desktop interaction
ASP.NET 2.0.50727.0 EventId 1314 appeared in the event log with the following error:
Even code: 4011
Event message: An unhandled access exception has occurred.
..... etc.
I got to the point where I had no authentiation mechanism, eventhough all services were running. No users in the WSUS local groups... strange...
So, rather than removing the patches, I have uninstalled WSUS and reinstalled (leaving all the information in-tact, db, log and one other option I can't remember). The problem with this is that I will still most likely have the same underlying issue and need to manually uninstall the updates I have applied before the installation.
Upon second attempt at reinstallation... it worked.
