Window 2003 Servers error 0x8ddd0004


Recommended Posts

Posted

This month my windows 2003 servers would not update. When trying it prompts

to to install activex control Microsoft Windows Component then stalls

eventually I get the the 0x8ddd0004 error. I have followed the link and

confirmed that the ActiveX wu control is enabled in add ins. I have posted

this previously but the reply could not be displayed. I manually applied

the updates to the servers. I have not applied SP2 to Window 2003 servers.

But they do have SP1

Thank you for your help

Try this ... open Internet Options in the Control Panel.

Click the Programs tab, then the Manage Add-ons button

Locate the WUWebControl add-on and click once on it to highlight it

Now click the Update ActiveX button

Did that get it updated ?

Check in %windir%\system32 to see if wuweb.dll is now at Version

7.0.6000.381

I have the same problem but I can not apply your solution because of I can

not find out the "Update ActiveX" button. Besides, I found that my wuweb.dll

are not the same version as yours. But I don't how to get update for this

file (wuweb.dll). U know, I tried rename the file with the hope that I can

update the new version online. but when I rename or delete it, the orther

wuweb.dll replace imediately.

What i should do?. Thanks
