I have ran a console repair with no success
I have tried installing WSUS 3.0 and 2.0 which errors

I need to access the networking tab to complete the set-up of their self assigned SSL Certificate

Could you be more specific about how you attempted the console repair?
From the SBS Console > Getting Started Tasks > Setup your internet address is what creates the Self Signed Cert.

Is this a new install?

We copied the files from disk 2 of the Windows Server 2008 disk and then from control panel repaired the console.

I have managed to add the certificate I needed using the setup your internet address ok.

This is not a new install.
Hi,

Can you run the Fix My Network Wizard from the C:\Program Files\Windows Small Business Server\Bin folder.

(FNCW.exe).

Confirm any errors / warnings.
Could not configure the router

DHCP is not configured for IPV6

DNS is using a DNS Forwarder

Exchange SMTP connectors are invalid
Ignore the router and DNS entries...the other two should be fixed

Just to confirm (and sorry for coming back late)  you repaired the console using this:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd430086(v=ws.10).aspx

Have you tried starting the console in safe mode?
To run the Windows SBS Console in Safe Mode  
1.Click Start, and then, in Start Search, type Command Prompt.


2.In Programs, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.


3.On the User Account Control page, click Continue.


4.Type cd C:\Program Files\Windows Small Business Server\Bin, and then press ENTER.


5.Type console.exe/safe, and then press ENTER.

Does the network page still crash?
Just tried this as you advised and the network page still crashed.
Have you got any further suggestions on this?

Another thing that you could try.

Stop the Windows SBS Manager service

Rename the console.log to consoleold.log - Located here:
C:\Program Files\Windows Small Business Server\Logs

Start the Windows SBS Manager Service

Now test the console.
If it crashes then upload the new console.log which will have been re-created.

It may give us a further clue.
Can the solution you have provided be done in a production environment without any issues David?
Yes it can. It's basically just renaming a log file that's all.
