Broken WSUS (2012 R2) - Downloads stuck


hi all,

i’m struggling wsus server work after moving server 2008 box. suggestions appreciated.

this project have had put on hold last week or two, due feature updates windows 10 push forward , iron out these issues.

what i’ve done

      •        deployed wsus roles on server 2012
      •        configured wsus same our previous system
      •        resolved issue network service permissions within wsus content drive
      •        resolved update file download issue changing port 8530 80
      •        identified client updates fail since port change made
      •        removed wsus server role , reinstalled *(maybe should cleanly install server??)*

i not have permission re-deploy server until supervisor returns.

  1.        re-installed wsus, reconfigured, left on port 8530

installed applicable windows updates manual steps completed:

  1. open elevated command prompt window, , run "c:\program files\update services\tools\wsusutil.exe postinstall /servicing" (case sensitive, assume c: system volume).
  2. select http activation under .net framework 4.5 features in server manager add roles , features wizard.
  3. restart wsus service.

still not working..

here event logs:
