Next: vista update error code 80070057 and 80070002
From: SuperGumby [SBS MVP] on 9 May 2010 22:49 SO, I have a Windows Server 2008 x86 machine that is dedicated to WSUS, no AV, no Office, basically, minimum Windows Server to support WSUS. KB980248 is failing to install. Original error code 80073712 but on a later attempt I have 80246007. This _was_ the only update waiting to install but suddenly I got the April 'Update readiness tool' offered and installed it, 980248 then installed fine. Only other thing I did was to restart in safe mode, rename windowsupdate.log to .old, restart normally. funny is all.

The purpose of the update readiness tool is to fix certain problems that can prevent updates from installing ... so it sounds as if it worked!

The System Update Readiness Tool (CheckSUR) creates 2 logs when it runs that can be located at: %windir%\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log %windir%\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.persist.log Check one or the other to see what CheckSUR did that resolved the below error - 0x80073712 ERROR_SXS_COMPONENT_STORE_CORRUPT The component store is in an inconsistent state. This one is self explanatory and possibly refers to the download of CheckSUR as it apparently was the next 'update' downloaded - 0x80246007 WU_E_DM_NOTDOWNLOADED The update has not been downloaded.
