WSUS broken after failed attempt to repair WSUS 3.0 SP2

hi

we have tried fix our sbs2008 server had "not configured" and ('the software update configuration has been modified , no longer meets recommended configuration.') in sbs console status.

we did research , tried follow these articles:

http://msmvps.com/blogs/bradley/archive/2009/08/27/repairing-wsus-3-on-sbs-2008.aspx

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd443475%28ws.10%29.aspx

we ran command nothing seemes happen , cmd went flashing cmd prompt. left time , tried run cmd 2 times. after twenty minutes decided rollback replacing original wsus folder onto c drive.

after server updates console not connect , full error was:

the wsus administration console unable connect wsus server via remote api. 

 

verify update services service, iis , sql running on server. if problem persists, try restarting iis, sql, , update services service.

 

the wsus administration console has encountered unexpected error. may transient error; try restarting administration console. if error persists, 

 

try removing persisted preferences console deleting wsus file under %appdata%\microsoft\mmc\.

the update services service termintating unexpectedly after few minutes

 

the sbs console says updates:

"cannot contact update services database. verify windows internal database service running"

 

we can tell wsussetup.log no actual changes made wsus other moving replacing wsus folder

as wsus broken anyway safe un-install add/remove programs. if procedure should use

please help

alan

can assist issue? have found can suggest if safe , appropriate follow:

this irrelevant on sbs2008. microsoft .net framework v1.1 should not installed.

the post applies win2003/iis6 (and sbs2003/iis6) systems .net v1.1 installed default.

for best results resolving issue, suggest opening thread in sbs2008 forum. wsus heavily customized in sbs2008 , general documentation exists native wsus product may, or may not, applicable in sbs2008 environment.
