Windows update on Server 2008 R2, error code 80246008

I have a Windows 2008 R2 server (virtuel) that cannot run Windows update for monhts. Getting update error 80246008 (Unknow error).

I have tried many solutions, fx. installing BITS, but no effect.

The server is running as a QlikView server, with its own QlikView buildin webserver. It seems that BITS has been installed before and I am not sure, if it has been removed when installing QlikView. But even if BITS is installed again (service starts correctly), I still get this error.

I have tried to clear temp-files.

I tried to run some FixIt - it says, there are some configuration error, but nothing specific...

When running this FixIt, it says "We detected some problems with your system and are able to successfully apply the fixes. However, our verification shows, that the problem still exists..." and a box saying "Windows Update components must be repaired" --> Not Fixed

This problem occurs if the Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) is not correctly registered on your computer

To resolve this problem, register the Qmgr.dll and Qmgrprxy.dll BITS files. To do this, follow these steps:
1) Click Start, click Run, type regsvr32 qmgr.dll in the Open box, and then click OK.
2)Click OK.
3)Click Start, click Run, type regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll in the Open box, and then click OK.
4)Click OK.

Please let me know if this helps otherwise i need an screenshot of that error message.

On "regsvr32 qmgr.dll", I get error:
The module "qmgr.dll" was loaded but the entry-point DllRegisterServer was not found.
Make sure that "qmgr.dll" is a valid DLL og OCX file and then try again.

"regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll" went OK
Did you try my solution?

I have now tried to install "System Update Readiness Tool". It installed okay.

But still the same errors, when trying to run Windows Update.

In the Windows Logs, Application - 2 errors comes many times (I think for each update)

Do you have a router or firewall that could cause wsus updates to fail their download? I have had that happen. Error code during update download caused by my router/firewall's security services. Some pieces of equipment have intrusion prevention services that can mistakenly cause the problem. It's not ports that get blocked, rather the fuzzy logic that determines if you may be downloading spyware/virus.  Just thought I'd throw that out there.

I used sc create BITS binpath= “c:\windows\system32\svchost.exe -k
 netsvcs” start= delayed-auto

But I also needed to import registry entry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\SERVICES\BITS from another server. And then it worked.

Thanks !
