Guest ckpilling Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 Hi, I have installed WSUS 3.0 on a 2003 R2 SP2 server. The WSUS MMC fails to open with the error: MMC failed to create snap in, clsid 8b6499ed... i have seen this before and know if I uninstall SP2 etc... and reinstall etc... it will fix the error. My question here is, does anyone have a tried and tested fix that doesn't involve uninstalling SP2? Thanks Chris
Guest ckpilling Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 RE: MMC 3.0 on 2003 R2 SP2 and WSUS 3.0 Guys, find a file called mmc.exe.config in system32 and rename it to _old. I think this is something to do with Citrix access management console Chris "ckpilling" wrote: > Hi, > > I have installed WSUS 3.0 on a 2003 R2 SP2 server. > > The WSUS MMC fails to open with the error: > > MMC failed to create snap in, clsid 8b6499ed... > > i have seen this before and know if I uninstall SP2 etc... and reinstall > etc... it will fix the error. > > My question here is, does anyone have a tried and tested fix that doesn't > involve uninstalling SP2? > > Thanks > > Chris
