content file download failed. reason:http status 404: requested url not exist on server.

i don't have updates approved files not downloaded.

if connected server  has same number , size of folders , files disconnected server, more detailed amiss in environment.

a file not on disconnected server -- /content/b0/4edb9bd3cb45741f368fa0f1db94a82a39f067b0.exe  -- not on connected server -- connected server reports approved updates "files downloaded", , console reports =0= updates needing downloaded, wsusutil reset not acquire new content. (the only scenario can imagine occuring if update expired (and still approved) on connected server. fact it's expired prevent wsusutil reset being able download missing content. disconnected server can't find file approved update, , tries download it, , reports missing -- is, , perhaps should be.

if that's case, way you're going resolve manually inspecting every single approved update on connected server identify approved update(s) expired, , manually remove approvals (actually, should decline them). run server cleanup wizard delete them database.
