SCCM / WSUS woes (SCCM 2012)

[imunro01]

I've followed the Windows Noob guide to installing and configuring the SCCM 2012. After changin the group policy to tell a test machine to use the SCCM server for updates, rather than our own WSUS server the PC will no longer check for updates, simply returning:

 

I've run the wsus client diagnostic tool, which returns all passes, and have the the SUR tool in KB947821. Since then I've also re-registered the WSUS DLL's on the PC, and reset the WSUS client ID, all with no joy.

 

Updates worked fine right up until I pointed to the new update URL, so I'm now leaning towards it being a server side issue, but not being familiar with the intricacies and foibles of SCCM2012, I've no idea where to look next.

proxy issue maybe?

WSUS should not be configured if running SUP to handle windows updates. Any GPO will override any SCCM configuration.

 

The client should automatically configure pulling updates from the SUP providing there are no firewall issues preventing this.

There's no proxy configured on the client.

 

The GPO simply points the client the the SCCM primary server (as per the Windows-Noob guide). There is no policy applied to the server iteself

When you add the SUP role clients are automatically configured with the Correct WSUS URL for scanning on the next policy retrieval cycle.

 

Configuring a WSUS GP will take precedence away from the SUP resulting in a misconfiguration. I have not read the guide which you refer to so I am unable to comment on their process.
