Can't Run windows update from DC

[Guest ITDUDE27]

Hi.

 

I'm experiencing a problem with my DC, which host Exchange, IIS. When I

manually run the windows update via the browser I get promt to install the

ActiveX for Genuine verifycation. After I select install ActiveX, it check

for updates for maybe 2 seconds than it prompts me for the ActiveX install

all over again. It like it caught in a loop. This only started when I ran the

last Windows update on the 27th of June I believe. Any thoughts?

 

Everything works fine with the exception that I can't get updates. SBS 2003,

Exchange 2003 R2.

Any help on this would much appreciated.

Thanks.

Re: Can't Run windows update from DC

 

After instaslling the ActiveX, do you see it being listed under IE's Add

Ons?

 

You mgiht want to post this question in the Windowsupdate NG too.

Re: Can't Run windows update from DC

 

Thanks Jabez.

 

It Genuine Activex component is installed.

The message I Got was "This site might require the following ActiveX

control: 'Windows Update' from Microsoft Windows Component Publisher'. Click

here to install..."

 

The WuWebcontrol class (wuweb.dll) was not updating via the update. I select

it from the ad-ons list and I selected Update ActiveX and it worked from

there.

Thanks a bunch.

Can you be specific on how you correct the issue... I'm having the same

problem but I'm not able to following what was done to correct it.

 

Thanks

Re: Can't Run windows update from DC

 

Sure Lary.

 

Jabez suggested I made sure the ActiveX in reference was listed under IE's

Add Ons:

Via the browser go to Tools -> Manage Add ons... In the Show drop down: I

chose ' Ad-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer'

I selected the one named (WUWebControl Class) and I Clicked the Update

ActiveX button. Once the update was complete, I was able to run the windows

update.

 

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Re: Can't Run windows update from DC

 

Thanks for getting back,

 

I don’t have the “Uupdate ActiveX” button option or the WUWebControl Class

file.

 

When I go to the Manage On-Add window, I only have the option to disable,

enable or delete the ActiveX. The closest file that I have to WUWebControl

Class is MUWebControl Class.

 

Thanks again.

Found my solution

 

Found my solution

 

I found that if the ActiveX control is not displayed in the Add/Remove

program list, you can delete it from Windows\Downloaded Program folder (ie >

4.0). http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=154850

 

 

When I went to that folder I found the wuweb.dll file and with the right

mouse, updated the control. Then I went into IE and the Windows Update

worked as expected.

 

Thanks for all you help.
