Re: Update Installations Fail. HELLLLP !

TAURIAN:

SOMEBODY HELP (or SHOOT) ME!
* Everytime I try to update/install the WINDOWS downloads they FAIL...then I
get an error msg. "Please try again later". OK, so I try again about 6 hrs.
later...it FAILS again. Obviously, I've disabled my Virus software for 20
min. while this process is going on and it STILL FAILS!

* I've tried to download Windows Media Player 10 and it tells me it can't
verify MicroSoft's Digital Signature or "Signature cannot be identified" so
the download is rejected. I got this DIRECT from the MS website and it still
fails!

I have 19 Updates that have ALL FAILED because of something and I'd like to
FIX this problem. Does anyone have a direct email address where I can email
the report log of my updates that failed?

My Office 2003 (SP2) won't update either. What/Where is the problem and HOW
can I fix this?

I look forward hearing from you soon!
Bill H. :)

I know this subject is a few months old but I'm running into the same issue
and I have a slightly different situation. I installed Office 2003 from a
software distribution point thru a Group Policy. Then I put an image of that
computer on a lot of other computers. (ran sysprep, etc.) I have WSUS
installed and it's been doing updates just fine for a while, EXCEPT with
Office 2003 SP2.

I looked in the WindowsUpdates.log file and it was showing the error that's
been talked about in the article (http://support.microsoft.com/?id=903772).
I replaced the OSE.exe file just like the article said on about 6 computers.
I'll have to wait and see when the computer checks in again with the SUS
server if it re-tries the update again and if it is successful.

On other computers, I've logged in and the update is sitting there waiting
to be installed (yellow shield). I tried to manually install it and it went
through just fine.

I agree though, there's gotta be a better way of handling this, it defeats
the purpose of having WSUS do the updates for office.

The following updates fail to install. I have included the error messages.
Error Code: 0x80070643 [Update for Office 2003 (KB907417)]
&
Error Code: 0x80070643 [Update for Outlook 2003 Junk Email Filter
(KB907492)]

Can anyone assist with a solution? I run PConPoint & this may have deleted
something from my registry (?).
I have tried a number of proposed solutions posted but none will work.
