WSUS Client - Windows could not search for new updates.

My WSUS server has been broken for a while. I currently have it configured through group policy.

On client computers, windows update tells me "Windows could not search for new updates" Code 80072F8F

Every computer on my domain runs into this issue. I installed a diagnostic tool and it told me this:
