WSUS 3.0 SP1 Admin Console
Using WSUS 3.0 SP1 on a 2003 server and having problems connecting the the
admin console. WSUS has been running on this server for 6 months without any
problems. Then two weeks ago after a power outage, in which the server was
shutdown properly and a disk failed with the RAID array (has since been
replaced), I can no longer connect to the admin console either on the server
or remotely. I'm using the Windows Internal Database for the SQL instance.
The Windows Internal Database service isn't started and I am unable to start
it manually. When I try and start it manually I get the following message:
Windows could not start the Windows Internal Database (MICROSOFT##SSEE) on
Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is
a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to
service-specific error code 1814.
When I look at the System Event Log there are a few error messages. Those
errors are as follows:
Source: MSSQL$MICROSOFT## Event ID: 17207 FCB::Open: Operating system error
5(Access is denied.) occurred while creating or opening file
'C:\WINDOWS\SYSMSI\SSEE\MSSQL.2005\MSSQL\DATA\model.mdf'. Diagnose and
correct the operating system error, and retry the operation.

I am also seeing ASP.NET errors in the server Application Log which appear
to be occuring when clients are checking into the WSUS server. Those error
messages are as follows:

WindowsUpdate.log file, which suggests an issue with the SOAP communication.
I have already installed KB954960 on the server so I am not sure where those
errors are coming from.
I've tried uninstalling WSUS and reinstalling but the uninstall fails. Tried
migrating the SQL database to a SQL Server 2005 instance and the SQL Server
2005 installation failed.
I really don't want to start over on another server and I am sure that I am
just missing something that will fix the problem. Appears to be an issue with
SQL, IIS or a combination of the two.
Please help. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Re: WSUS 3.0 SP1 Admin Console
Lawrence,
Before I uninstalled I changed the login for the Windows Internal Database
Service from NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService to a domain admin account and the
service started fine. I then tried the WSUS Admin Console again and now it
works fine. Don't know why I didn't think of changing that before, but as
long as it's working I'll keep it as is. Thanks for your response

Re: WSUS 3.0 SP1 Admin Console
Lawrence,
I was unable to run the uninstall before because I couldn't start the WID
Service and the uninstall would fail everytime. Now that I am able to start
that service I can now run the uninstall/reinstall of WSUS and return it to
it's original state.
Thanks for your help.
