Hi Folks,

Can you help with the following please, I have run out of ideas other than migrating the server and its roles over to a new server.

System: Windows Server 2019 Standard 1809 - 17763.1577
Domain controller also running several other services


Issue:

I have started a new job and upon auditing the servers, I have identified a server where the Installation of Windows updates have been failing for over a year!


Tested with the September and October Cumulative Update

Updating via windows update, the update installs to 100% and then errors with: 2022-10 Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2019 (1809) for x64-based Systems (KB5018419) - Error 0x8007371b


Event Log - Setup Log: Some events:

Event 3: Windows update "Security Update for Windows (KB5018419)" could not be installed because of error 2147956507 "One or more required members of the transaction are not present." (Command line: ""C:\Windows\system32\wusa.exe" "C:\Temp\UP Oct 2019 Server\02 October 2022 Update windows10.0-kb5018419-x64_08f6e9eb4e8cb9f7af2b152e6dea624490a60b2d.msu"

Event 3: Package KB5017400 failed to be changed to the Installed state. Status: 0x8007371b.

Event 1015: 0 of 33 instances of system store corruption have been repaired.


Fix attempts:

* Downloaded latest Cumulative update from windows update catalogue
* Cleared Windows Update Cache
* Disabled / uninstalled Antivirus
* SFC /SCANNOW
* Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
* Dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /AnalyzeComponetStore OK
* Dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup OK
* DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth The Component Store is REpairable

* DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Tested using the following as /source: ..........

- Another server as source (Same OS version Later Build Version)

- ISO SW_DVD9_Win_Server_STD_CORE_2019_1809.18_64Bit_English_DC_STD_MLF_X22-74330

- ISO SW_DVD9_Win_Server_STD_CORE_2019_1809.7_64Bit_English_DC_STD_MLF_X22-38323

Using index 2 for Windows standard with GUI


* Noticed the error in the Setup event log relating to KB5017400 that is not available on the Windows update Catalogue

- Bit of digging this seems to be .net 3.5 related - KB5017400 (22/09 Servicing Stack Update 1~17763.3460.1.0)

- Removed .net from Roles / Feature

- Fails to re-install as missing components

- Installed using another 2019 server winSXS folder (Later Build than this server) seems to have installed .net again

- Updates still failing


Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks
