SCCM 2012 won't perform initial sync, and Java update from SCUP not showing.
I have a brand new install of System Center 2012 and System Center Updates Publisher 2011. I am setting this up so that product updates from 3rd parties such Java, Acrobat Reader etc., can be pushed out to client PCs without user intervention.
I have successfully created a package in SCUP for Java (under a new vendor called Oracle), and I have successfully published this.
However, this update is not appearing in SCCM 2012 - but then again, SCCM 2012 is not showing ANY available updates - including from Microsoft.
The sync settings are set to Microsoft Update. I have followed suggestions to clear the product categories then re-select some in order to start the initial synchronisation, but I can't seem to get it working.

The first sync isn't taking place though. I do have products and classifications selected.
Under the Monitoring section, if you select "Software Update Point Synchronization Status", what does it show on the right?
Also under monitoring, look under "System Status", "Component Status". What is the status of the "SMS_WSUS_SYNC_MANAGER", "SMS_WSUS_CONFIGURATION_MA
If any of those are showing a status other than OK, right click on them and select "Show Messages", "All". What errors are in the logs?

Steve, under the Monitoring section - the "Software Update Point Synchronization Status" shows an icon of a software box with a blue icon. Site Code, Software Update Point and Synchronization Source are the only populated fields (Sync Source shows as Microsoft Update).
SMS_WSUS_SYNC_MANAGER is at Critical - error messages (id 6703) reads:-
SMS_WSUS_CONFIGURATION_MAN
SMS_WSUS_CONTROL_MANAGER is showing as OK.
WSUS was installed through the Server Manager on Server 2012 and I assume is version 4.0.

WSUS Configuration Manager failed to configure upstream server settings on WSUS Server "SRV-AD-01.tuc.local". Possible cause: WSUS Server version 3.0 SP2 or above is not installed or cannot be contacted.

WCM.log
If you open the WSUS console, does it load OK, or display an error?

WSUS console opens just fine. I have just looked at that article, but it refers to a 503 error in the WCM log file. I don't have a 503 error in mine.

Sorry, I didn't see the WCM.log file when I replied earlier. That does make a difference. It sounds like you've likely found the issue with the incorrect port setting, hopefully everything will go smoothly for you from here.

Found the problem myself.
One tricky little thing - the Products tab will update and list new products after you publish 3rd party updates from SCUP for the first time. For example, if you have updates from Oracle for Java listed in SCUP, the first time you publish one for that company and application, you'll need to wait until after a software updates synchronization has completed in configmgr, THEN go in to the Software update Point Component Properties screen and select the new checkboxes for Oracle and/or Java.
