setting... check your date and time setting. error # 0x800c0008

My time and date settings are correct. Please advise.

I had the same problem. It turned out that for some unknown reason, after
reformatting, my computer was set on something like year 2021. Changing the
date fixed the problem.

Thanks for the help.. however, I haven't found a resolution.
I've tried logging onto the network as the administrator instead of the
local machine. Windows update failed again.
Date, time, timezone are all correct but I've tried changing them to see if
that would work.
I've also restarted the server.

Again, I'm running Windows Server 2003 (new installation) on top of a RAID
server. Thanks again everyone for any help.

Joseph

The link that you gave me gave the solution:

19. Uncheck "Check for server certificate revocation"
a. Open Internet Explorer
b. Click on Tools
c. Click on Internet Option from the drop down menu
d. Click on the Advanced tab
e. Scroll down to the Security Section
f. Unselect "Check for server certificate revocation"
g. Reboot the machine

I APPRECIATE THE HELP! THANK YOU.

You mean the last step that refers to the Windows Update Checklist.
Did you miss that step at first?
I only ask because it seems some skip that step after trying the rest
assuming nothing there will help as well.

In any case, I am glad you found the solution.

I tried a few easy ones on that checklist, number 19 being one of them
(http://www3.telus.net/dandemar/updtcl.htm)

it did the trick. Thanks for that link.

Thanks for the resolution. It worked.
I have a difficult time understanding how an error message indicating one's
time settings has anything to do with server certificate revocation??? As
well, the solution come from a non-Microsoft site. Make me think that MS do
not have any idea as to what they are doing!!
