Broken WSUS
|
From: Bob on 5 Jun 2008 22:14 Hi All, I had to replace the hard drive that the WSUS database and files were on. I stopped all the SQL services, copied the WSUS folder to another drive, and replaced the drive. I moved the WSUS folders back onto the replacement drive, restarted all the SQL services, but now WSUS is broken. I tried reinstalling, but the install fails when trying to remove the old version. How can I uninstall and start again? Is there anyway to keep the 20 gigs or so of patches I have downloaded already?
From: Shawn Skonberg on 5 Jun 2008 22:41 I think that if you replace the drive and keep the letter of the drive the same and the location of the folder the same. You should just have to restart, and then you should be fine. I would not uninstall. Just ensure the drive letter is the same.
