Windows Update fails after upgrading WXP SP1 to WXP SP2.

I'm having a problem with windows update after upgrading my WIndows XP from

SP1 to SP2. When I activate Windows Update ( manual or automaic mode) It

returns the list of component software that must be updated. It download all

files but it fails to execute upgrades. I'd looked at "WindowsUpdate.log"

and discovered 2 errors:

The first is:

"2007-08-04 14:14:08:484 1180 aa4 PT WARNING: SyncUpdates failure, error =

0x8024400D, soap client error = 7, soap error code = 300, HTTP status code =

200

2007-08-04 14:14:08:484 1180 aa4 PT WARNING: SOAP Fault: 0x00012c

"

And the second:

 

"2007-08-04 14:15:37:328 3740 ea4 AUClnt FATAL: Error: 0x80004002. wuauclt

handler: failed to spawn COM server

2007-08-04 14:15:38:531 1180 9dc Handler FATAL: 0x80004002: ERROR:

Remote update handler container process created (PID:

3740),but exited before signaling event

2007-08-04 14:15:38:546 1180 9dc Agent * WARNING: Exit code = 0x80004002

"

 

I found an entry in KB for: 0x8024400D saying: 0x8024400D

WU_E_PT_SOAP_CLIENT Same as SOAP_E_CLIENT - SOAP client found the message

was malformed fix before resending.

Haow can fix the SOAP MESSAGE?? It's the MSFT software that buils it, not me

!

I don't find anything about error 0x80004002 related to windows update. It

looks like that error code is related with authorization but I'm not sure.

Notice: I've any event in the security event log.

Does anybody konw where I can find all Windows Errors Code? Is a such list

available ou side MSFT?

Could you help me to solve my problem or have I to reinstall WXP SP2 ?

Best regards

Some 'thing' is interfering with the installation of the required

components in order for the system to be able to communicate with either

the update Servers [Automatic Update] or the Windows Update site.

 

Was the installed antivirus actively monitoring the system when it was

updated to SP2 ?

 

WHAT is installed in terms of security :

1) Antivirus ?

2) Popup or Cookie blocker [*Especially* ones that are contained in

Toolbars] ?

3) Anti-malware software [AdAware, Spybot, SpySweeper, etc] ?

Communication between the system and the Server is broken. wuauclt.exe

is part of the Windows Update Client components. The system is trying to

install the latest version of it and can not.

Sorry, it's not the MS software causing the issue, rather, it's 3rd

party software that is the culprit.

So, let's give this a try ... show hidden files, folders, and system

files: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial62.html#winxp

 

Now go to Start > Run > type in

 

net stop wuauserv

Click OK or press Enter

 

Back to Start > Run > type in [or copy&paste]

 

%windir%\softwaredistribution

Click OK or press Enter

 

Delete ALL of the subfolders of SoftwareDistribution

Do *NOT* delete the ReportingEvents.log

Close the window

 

Temporarily, TOTALLY disable the installed antivirus software. Either

consult the Help file or visit the manufacturer's web site to find out how.

 

Download and SAVE:

Windows Update Agent [Client] 3.0 [x86-32bit]

http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe

 

KB927891

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=7A81B0CD-A0B9-497E-8A89-404327772E5A&displaylang=en

 

When the downloads complete close the browser and any other open programs.

Install WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe first

Then install WindowsXP-KB927891-v3-x86-ENU.exe

Restart the system.

 

Go back to Start > Run > type in [or copy&paste]

 

wuauclt /detectnow

Click OK or press Enter

 

Did any updates come down ?

If so, then after the updates are detected and installed, *REENABLE* the

installed antivirus.
