Cannot log in to WSUS console. ASP.NET errors in event log. HELP!
Posted on 2009-07-14
I attempted a fresh new installation of WSUS 3.0 SP1 on a windows 2003 server. The server is a domain controller and it also runs SQL 2005 and backup exec 12.5.
I used the windows internal database for wsus. At the end of the wsus install I saw the following error:
At the end of install, got an error saying "an
unexpected error occurred, and this wizard must be closed. You may restart
the wsus server configuration wizard from the options page in the WSUS 3.0
console. Then Microsoft.UpdateServices.U
problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
I've tried removing and reinstalling WSUS. I've checked the permissions on everything and it all looks ok. I verified network service account had the correct permissions to the temp folders in windows and that the path variables are correct. I've tried a repair install of .net framework using aspnet_regiis.exe -i
I'm at a loss here. I still cannot log in to the mmc console and connect to this server's instance of WSUS and those asp.net errors appear in the event log since the wsus install.

you might have missed some additional permissions
http://www.eggheadcafe.com/conversation.aspx?messageid=33111934&threadid=33073671
The most likely cause here is that you have incorrect permissions on theTemporary ASP.NET Files folder.Make sure that the NTAUTHORITY\Network Service account has WRITE permissionson "Temporary ASP.NET Files", and that those permissions are inherited toall files and subfolders.

If that doesnt work I would uninstall WSUS, uninstall IIS. Reinstall IIS with ASP.NET, Reinstall WSUS.
I have uninstalled wsus, iis, asp.net and .net framework 2 3 and 3.5
I reinstalled all of the starting in the order listed above except wsus was last.
I am still having issues. I verified the temp asp.net directory for all of the .net framework versions has the correct permissions for network service account.
This is a production windows 2003 server and we really need to get this working. This server is also a domain controller and running SQL 2005 although wsus is set to use the windows internal database. We have 2 other servers in remote locations that are working and have a very similar configuration. Any other suggestions?
Here is examples of what I am seeing in the application event log.
