I have a system, Server 2012 R2 that will NOT installed the Security Monthly Quality Rollup this month (KB4503276).

I had similar issues last month on a different system but the error code was not the same. My usual tips and tricks are not helping. I have an open ticket with Microsoft but that's going relatively slow. Hoping I can get some traction on here as well.

Error code is 8000FFFF.

I've tried the following so far.

1. Rename SoftwareDistribution folder
2. Install from MSU
3. sfc /scannow
4. dism restorehealth

MS has had me run some things as well but nothing is allow this to install. Attached is the current CBS log I sent to MS as well.

PLEASE HELP!
 
Hi,

I'm concluding other cases and then will take a look to your log.

Please provide the following files:

Retrieve the Components Hive
  1. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Config and locate the COMPONENTS file
  2. Please copy the COMPONENTS file to your desktop
    Note: If you receive an error that this file is in-use, simply reboot your computer and try again
  3. Right-click on this file on your Desktop and select Send To...Compressed (zipped) folder. This will create a file named COMPONENTS.ZIP on your Desktop
  4. If file will is too large to upload to the forum please share the file using a service like Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, or upload to www.sendspace.com and just provide the link for the file here


Export Registry Hive (CBS)
  • download the script ExportCBSRegistry2.cmd and save it to the Desktop
  • right-click the file ExportCBSRegistry2.cmd and select Run as administrator
  • when the script ends a new file called SoftwareCBS.zip will be located on the Desktop
  • If the zip file is too large to upload to the forum please share the file using a service like Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, or upload to www.sendspace.com and just provide the link for the file here


Export Registry keys (SBS)
  • download the script ExportSbSRegistry.cmd and save it to the Desktop
  • right-click the file ExportSbSRegistry.cmd and select Run as administrator
  • when the script ends a new file called SoftwareSBS.zip will be located on the Desktop
  • If zip file is too large to upload to the forum please share the file using a service like Dropbox, Google Drive, etc. or upload to SendSpace and just provide the link for the file here

Here are the results. Side note, there was not an HKLM\COMPONENTS key in the registry prior to running this. Not sure if that's normal or not. Should I try to update now or is this analysis only? Thanks!

MS ended up getting me a solution, I tried the install anyway on a backup of the bad version of the disk, it still failed.

The solution was to correct missing data for a REG_SZ registry value under this key:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\ComponentDetect\amd64_microsoft-windows-p..i-ntprint.resources_31bf3856ad364e35_0.0.0.0_en-us_f2f68292b685eb6d

REG_SZ value was:
Package_1026_for_KB4499151~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.1.9.4499151-1589_neutral_GDR

Missing data was the same as other values in that key:
6.3.9600.18790@4

Looks like a VMware Tools upgrade messed up our system, we did it last month on this system, and that one little registry value was mucking things up.

Thank you so much for your help, I'm sure you would have pinpointed it, that I have no doubt of! This forum is great!
