Guest Kurtas B Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 I'm on Windows XP, the machine has SP 2. I've been trying to get recent updates in the past year for this machine, but I keep getting the error listed in the topic. Googling the question gives few results. In the results, one MVP suggests to register 5 DLLs. I did register them successfully but that did not solve my problem. Can anyone help me? I badly need to run updates on this machine for some other software to function.

Guest Engel Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Hello Kurtas, Since you are with XP, Doesn't hurt to try the recommendation here: http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?&lang=en&cr=US&guid=&sloc=en-us&dg=microsoft.public.windows.vista.security&p=1&tid=fb171ac4-a746-45ae-b6e1-35f68f2ad7fc&mid=fb171ac4-a746-45ae-b6e1-35f68f2ad7fc I hope this post is helpful. Let us know how it works ºut. -- "Kurtas B" wrote: > I'm on Windows XP, the machine has SP 2.

Guest Kurtas B Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 I will try that - I should note how I get this error: I open IE, Tools -> Updates. IE takes 2-3 minutes of checking if I'm using the latest update software, then I get the error. So I don't get as far as selecting Express or Custom updates. Also here is something interesting. When I get the error it gives me the option to search for solutions - and I am directed here: http://www.update.microsoft.com/windowsupdate/v6/showarticle.aspx?articleid=36&ln=en&IsMu=False The final question asked to check out the Add-On called WUWebControl Class. This is not listed in the list of Addons that have been used by IE. Further googling leads me to belive that this computer is or was configured to use WSUS.. I then found C:\Windows\Windows Update.log (note the space in the file name). This log has entries like this: 2007-07-30 13:24:16 17:24:16 Success IUENGINE Starting 2007-07-30 13:24:17 17:24:17 Success IUENGINE Determining machine configuration 2007-07-30 13:24:17 17:24:17 Success IUENGINE Querying software update catalog from http://edgeeng/autoupdate/getmanifest.asp 2007-07-30 13:24:17 17:24:17 Success IUENGINE Determining machine configuration 2007-07-30 13:24:17 17:24:17 Success IUENGINE Querying software update catalog from http://edgeeng/autoupdate/getmanifest.asp 2007-07-30 13:24:17 17:24:17 Success IUENGINE Determining machine configuration 2007-07-30 13:24:18 17:24:18 Success IUENGINE Querying software update catalog from http://edgeeng/autoupdate/getmanifest.asp 2007-07-30 13:24:18 17:24:18 Success IUENGINE Determining machine configuration 2007-07-30 13:24:18 17:24:18 Error IUENGINE Querying software update catalog from http://edgeeng/autoupdatedrivers/getmanifest.asp (Error 0x801901F4) 2007-07-30 13:24:18 17:24:18 Success IUENGINE Shutting down edgeeng was an old domain controller.

Guest Kurtas B Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 MowGreen- In gpedit, the 'Specify intranet MS update servers location' was set to "Not Configured" How can that be? Are there some registry keys I can check?

After applying those KBs - I got past the error, and the computer is now catching up on missed updates. THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest MowGreen [MVP] Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 You're mowst welcome. The Windows Update.log, the one with http://edgeeng as the update server, is actually not the WindowsUpdate.log. The former is for logging the updating done via the Windows/Microsoft Update Catalog, the latter has to do with updating done via Automatic Updates or updates done at the Windows/Microsoft Update sites. Anyway ... the most important thing is ... it's working. <w> MowGreen [MVP 2003-2007] =============== *-343-* FDNY Never Forgotten =============== Kurtas B wrote: > Ignore my last post - I went one to the next steps anyways. > > After applying those KBs - I got past the error, and the computer is now > catching up on missed updates. > > THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!! > > "MowGreen [MVP]" wrote: > > >>Kurtas, >> >>The system is seeking updates from the intranet server plus the latest >>Windows Update Agent is not installed yet. >> >>NOTE: *** IF WSUS is being used to update the Client systems then you >>should *NOT* change/delete the intranet server.
