Windows Update 0x800C0005 Error SBS2003

Hi,

Any one come up with a solution for the "0x800C0005" error when attempting
to run windows update on a SBS2003 premium server?

I have tried re-registering 3 dll files:
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=843499)

regsvr32 Softpub.dll
regsvr32 Wintrust.dll
regsvr32 Initpki.dll

and rebooted the server... but no success.

I have tried a few suggestions after "googling" for answers, but no help so
far :-(

There really doesn't seem to be a lot on this update error, but thought I
would ask on this forum and see if anyone has solved the issue. Any
support/feedback is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Trevor.

Have you checked this site:

Yep... thanks for that.

Had seen the document before, but it now seems amended. Even before, there
was a couple of items I was hesitant to try, but will make time for a reboot
or two of the server outside of working hours.

Thanks for your response.

Cheers,
Trevor.

Update...

I have tried almost every suggestion except...

I registered the following dlls : (ie. "regsvr32 softpub.dll" from a command
prompt)
softpub.dll
wintrust.dll
initpki.dll
dssenh.dll
rsaenh.dll
gpkcsp.dll
sccbase.dll
slbcsp.dll
cryptdlg.dll

I unchecked "Check for server certificate revocation" from I.E. internet
options and rebooted the server remotely from home before coming to work
this morning, but unfortunately - I get the same windows update error.

The only option on the list to try now is to create another admin account on
the server and try logging in and running the windows update again. I still
have my fingers crossed :-)

Cheers,
Trevor.

Thanks for posting Trevor, let's know how you go with creating another admin
account on the server and if you can run WU from that account. I'm sure
others are also interested to know your progress.

Hi,

Thanks for your help and feedback so far Kaylene. Even with logging is
as another admin account on the 2003 Small Business Server, it still will
not allow windows updates to work and still produces the "0x800C0005" error.
I think I am close to exhausting my options and will now wait until someone
has another fix.

Cheers,
Trevor.

Does your symptom change at all if you use an https: protocol
prefix for the URL instead?

Notice the second part of the cause in that article you cite.
<quote>
or if there is a firewall between the computer and the Internet
that does not allow HTTPS (SSL) connections.
</quote>

You seem to have been focussing so far on the first part mostly.
E.g. assuming that the problem can be fixed by re-registering
some .dlls without really knowing anything more about your
symptom(s) than that error code.

You really haven't disclosed any details about your symptoms
or your setup so that makes it hard for people to give you suggestions
apart from general guesses.

Hi,

It makes no difference when using https, instead of http in the URL.
I do get to the "Scan for Updates" link, but then it will just sit on 0%
until the error appears, maybe 2 minutes later.

This server was working fine with windows updates a few weeks ago, until
some recent patches were applied. SBS2003 premium, with ISA server and
Exchange running. It is using symantec client security with groupware
protection, veritas backup, lots of accounting software... accounting
business.

Hardware : Asus server Dual 3.2GHz CPUs, 2GB Ram, Raid1 (O/S), 36GB 10K SCSI
and Raid5 (Data), 73GB 10K SCSI drives, redundant 3x 300W power supplies.

I have really come to a stop :-) The server runs fine, I just can't run
windows updates anymore :-(

Cheers,
Trevor.
