Re: WSUS SelfUpdate Issue

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi Eric,

Thanks for your update.

This issue may occur if you have the default web site bound to a specific
IP address in your IIS configuration since the SelfUpdate service accesses
the WSUS server on 127.0.0.1:80

Note: If the installation or configuration of the WSUS is not performed
properly, the reinstalling of the IIS may be needed.

However, I still want to provide the following action plan for workaround
this issue, please perform the following steps:

The workaround is either to set your IIS Configuration to respond to "All
unassigned" addresses or add 127.0.0.1 to the list of IP addresses used for
Selfupdate.

Option 2: Verify that the SelfUpdate virtual folder in IIS includes
anonymous access rights for IUSR account.

For your information:
