WSUS unable to synchronise updates after updates applied to server


hi all,

i've landed myself in hot water breaking our wsus server, unfortunately i'm @ loss go here , hoping has more knowledge of wsus workings might able point me in right direction.

i have wsus 3.0 (3.2.7600.226) running on server 2008 r2. server hosts our sccm environment. rolling out fep 2010 updated server sp1 , the other critical / security updates available after doing (bunch of .net 3.5 fixes). since update however, wsus server unable synchronise updates. receive following message:

webexception: unable connect remote server ---> system.net.sockets.socketexception: no connection made because target machine actively refused 65.54.51.180:443
at system.net.httpwebrequest.getrequeststream(transportcontext& context)
   @ system.net.httpwebrequest.getrequeststream()
   @ system.web.services.protocols.soaphttpclientprotocol.invoke(string methodname, object[] parameters)
   @ microsoft.updateservices.serversyncwebservices.serversync.serversyncproxy.getauthconfig()
   @ microsoft.updateservices.serversync.serversynclib.internetgetserverauthconfig(serversyncproxy proxy, webservicecommunicationhelper webservicehelper)
   @ microsoft.updateservices.serversync.serversynclib.authenticate(authorizationmanager authorizationmanager, boolean checkexpiration, serversyncproxy proxy, cookie cookie, webservicecommunicationhelper webservicehelper)
   @ microsoft.updateservices.serversync.catalogsyncagentcore.syncconfigupdatesfromuss()
   @ microsoft.updateservices.serversync.catalogsyncagentcore.executesyncprotocol(boolean allowredirect)

unfortunately i'm unable find on message out on web (regarding no connection made part). had synchronisations errors in past ended being proxy error, unfortunately not control proxy cannot check if it's getting stuck there - have logged request team however. clarify - wsus not configured use proxy, set sync directly ms updates, direct exception made on proxy server.

i have tried uninstalling .net updates server, haven't gone far remove sp1 installation yet. did notice there wsus update available (kb2720211), applied, installation failed , broke console altogether, fixed issue , reinstalled wsus on box, still no love however.

can out there offer suggestions? many thanks.

under iis, have checked these applications under default website:

  • apiremoting30
  • serversyncwebservice

and neither require ssl.

what wsus website requires, regarding client , downstream server inbound connectivity totally unrelated outbound connections being made wsus server microsoft. errors in softwaredistribution.log cited in thread outbound sync failures using ssl.

typically such failures occur 1 of couple of reasons:

  • something blocking ssl connectivity
  • the certificates being used connection invalid.

since using proxy server, there's high probability ssl certificate being used proxy may no longer correct certificate -- since changed.
