WSUS Uninstall - System Still Searching for Directory Path

Hello,
I recently uninstalled WSUS from a Server 2012 server core machine and installed it on a different Server 2012 server core machine.  Everything is operational on the new server with no problems.  However, on the old server, I am getting an error
(this is mainly an issue because SCOM generates an error because of this).  Either way, I want to get to the root of the problem on the server so I am curious if anyone else has encountered an issue such as this below (now, I can understand the error
because the WebServices\Root folder has been removed since it isn't a WSUS server no longer):
"Could not find directory path 'C:\Program Files\Update Services\WebServices\Root\' for WebSite with Name :'WSUS Administration' and ID :'1014308378'. This website will be discovered with some properties missing. Operation will be retried.
Error: 0x80070003
Details: The system cannot find the path specified.
Workflow name: Microsoft.Windows.InternetInformationServices.6.2.Discover96to100WebSites
Instance name: IIS Web Server
Instance ID: {D1E371F2-DD70-9261-7B48-25D6D868F1E3}
Management group: <domain>"

this is mainly an issue because SCOM generates an error because of this
Then you probably ought to ask in the Operations Manager forum.
"Could not find directory path 'C:\Program Files\Update Services\WebServices\Root\' for WebSite with Name :'WSUS Administration'
and ID :'1014308378'.
Or not... :-)
This is actually an IIS 101 issue.
SCOM is looking for a resource on SiteID 1014308378. But SiteIDs in IIS are randomly assigned during site creation, so even though the machine name may be the same, almost certainly the SiteID changed when you moved the WSUS server to a
new machine.
Remove the SCOM references to the old server and add NEW references to the new WSUS server.

  • Oracle Apex Regular Expression for Directory Path (e.g. C:/New/Test)

    Hi,
    I am searching for Apex validation for directory path. exaples string should allow following strings:
    (1) C:/Data/NewFile
    (2) C:\Data\NewFile
    Alphabet, Numbers, Colon (only at second location), Any slash (forward or backward).
    However it should filter out multiple slashes, special characters, etc.

  • FTPs connection error:When using Variable substitution for Directory path

    Hi
    I am transferring data from BI to xml file via PI: Here a Client proxy from BI sends the data to PI and the PI FTPs the XML file to a remote location. For FTP I am using FTPs SSL connection.
    It was working fine untill I used Variable susbstitution to determine Directory path dynamically. I am using this because different xml files are intended to goto the different locations.
    I did the variable substitution like this:
    Target Message Structure:
    ---> Target Directory: %var1%
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    <MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE>
      <Header>
         <Directory>/Customer</Directory>
    </Header>
    <Detail>
    </Detail>
       </MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE>
    And in the variable substitution I am doing it this way
    payload:MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE,1,Header,1,Directory,1
    And the error I am getting is:
    Attempt to process file failed with Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool: com.sap.aii.af.service.util.concurrent.ResourcePoolException: Unable to create new pooled resource: iaik.security.ssl.SSLException: Peer sent alert: Alert Fatal: handshake failure

    Does anybody have some Idea of this ??
    Regards
    Naina

    Hi,
    I guess the problem is not with Variable Substitution..
    Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool:
    So its a connection problem..
    Also check the option Disable Security check and try again...
    Try to check again if the interface is executing properly without Variable substitution and let us know..

  • Unix shell: Environment variable works for file system but not for ASM path

    We would like to switch from file system to ASM for data files of Oracle tablespaces. For the path of the data files, we have so far used environment variables, e.g.,
    CREATE TABLESPACE BMA DATAFILE '${ORACLE_DB_DATA}/bma.dbf' SIZE 2M AUTOEXTEND ON;
    This works just fine (from shell scripts, PL/SQL packages, etc.) if ORACLE_DB_DATA denotes a file system path, such as "/home/oracle", but doesn’t work if the environment variable denotes an ASM path like "\+DATA/rac/datafile". I assume that it has something to do with "+" being a special character in the shell. However, escaping "\+" didn’t work. I tried with both bash and ksh.
    Oracle managed files (e.g., set DB_CREATE_FILE_DEST to +DATA/rac/datafile) would be an option. However, this would require changing quite a few scripts and programs. Therefore, I am looking for a solution with the environment variable. Any suggestions?
    The example below is on a RAC Attack system (http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/RAC_Attack_-OracleCluster_Database_at_Home). I get the same issues on Solaris/AIX/HP-UX on 11.2.0.3 also.
    Thanks,

    My revised understanding is that it is not a shell issue with replacing +, but an Oracle problem. It appears that Oracle first checks whether the path starts with a "+" or not. If it does not (file system), it performs the normal environment variable resolution. If it does start with a "+" (ASM case), Oracle does not perform environment variable resolution. Escaping, such as "\+" instead of "+" doesn't work either.
    To be more specific regarding my use case: I need the substitution to work from SQL*Plus scripts started with @script, PL/SQL packages with execute immediate, and optionally entered interactively in SQL*Plus.
    Thanks,
    Martin

  • Still searching for GPS

    HTC Droid Eris Navigator - When I first got this phone almost two years ago, the navigation worked great.  This past summer it quit working and always said "searching for GPS".  The list of directions part of the program worked okay, and it knew where I was because the eta/miles left kept changing, but the voice assistance did not work.  I called VW and they helped me reset the phone to original factory settings.  This temporarily fixed the nav program as it worked great for about one week,  but then the same problem re-occurred.  I did NOT install any apps after the reset, so you cannot blame the problem on an app.  VW thought it might be a hardware failure, in case the reset didn't work.  Since it worked fine for a while, it seems more like a software problem.  I've been in the same car for the entire two years, so a different vehicle cannot explain it.  I found using this forum frustrating, and the silly "solved" posting about moving away from a building was not too helpful.  I suspect there are engineers at Verizon or HTC that know what is wrong, but their knowledge is not reaching this forum.

    Ann 154,
    thanks for your help.  I just ran GPS Test, the free version, and it was really cool.  Used 6 out of 8 satellites and I am INSIDE my house.  I then went to Nav and it worked fine.  I turned off the "Use wireless networks" in Settings/Location and only have Use GPS satellites checked.  I also turned off some things in Settings/Applications/Running Services. 
     I always turn off Navigation by doing "Menu/Exit Navigation" when not using it, to save the battery. 
    Regarding other questions by other replys, I do not have insurance on the phone because after my son's insured phone was stolen at the Boat House at Central Park, I learned there was a $50 deductible and and was able to replace his old LG phone for about that amount, so the insurance was worthless in this case.
    thanks to all who responded, i appreciate your help!!

  • My Bluetooth was working a week ago but it doesn't show up or connect in my bluetooth list it just says still searching for devices, why won't my bluetooth connect or pair again?

    The bluetooth showed up in the bluetooth list last week & now it won't even connect to the phone when i turn the bluetooth on to start pairing it just says Searching.

    Hey there Kaitlyn Turner,
    It sounds like your bluetooth is not functioning correctly on the iPhone. I recommend the troubleshooting in this article for the issue you are seeing named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Bluetooth connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4562
    Check that you are in range of the Bluetooth accessory with which you are trying to pair your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Most Bluetooth accessories have a range of approximately 30 feet.
    On your iOS device, tap Settings > Bluetooth and find your device in the list. If your device says Not Connected, tap the name of your accessory to attempt to connect it.
    Tap Settings > Bluetooth and turn Bluetooth off and then on again.
    Make sure that your Bluetooth accessory is turned on and fully charged or connected to power.
    Make sure that your Bluetooth accessory is in pairing mode.1
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Bluetooth and locate the Bluetooth accessory you are currently connected to or attempting to connect to. Then tap and Forget this Device. Try to pair your Bluetooth accessory again.
    Note: You may need to re-enter your Bluetooth accessory PIN if your accessory requires one. Some common PINs are 0000, 1111, and 1234.
    Restart your Bluetooth accessory by turning it off and then on again1.
    Update your device to the latest version of software. See how to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    If your Bluetooth accessory has upgradable firmware, check to see that you have the latest version1, 2.
    And this troublehsooting from down the bottom if needed:
    Bluetooth disconnects, intermittent connectivity, or unable to find
    Move your iOS device closer to the Bluetooth accessory.
    Position your iOS device and Bluetooth accessory in direct line of sight of each other. For example, move the Bluetooth accessory and iOS device to the same side of your body.
    Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if performance improves.
    Check for sources of potential interference and move both the iOS device and the Bluetooth accessory away from other electronic devices.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Note: This will reset all network settings including: previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords, recently used Bluetooth accessories, VPN, and APN settings.
    If your device is still experiencing issues
    If the steps above have not resolved the Bluetooth behavior you are experiencing, perform a software restore in iTunes.
    If the issue persists after restoring your iOS device in iTunes, contact Apple for support and service options.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Ele-10... Still searching for photos...

    Thanks 99jon!     I backed up my A-E10 program and files to an EXTERNAL HD before re-installing my xp-os. No, I did not have the "internal BACK-UP" system on.. Now that I have (re)installed my A-E10 back on my HD, I'm praying that there's a way to bring back the adobe photo files I believe are stored on the external drive, hidden in the A-E10 program files, I originally backed up to this ext hd...
    ...After trying the "catalog" search and "convert" action, I have found nothing. Is there an ".EXT" or file name where the photos in A-E10 are saved to, that I can use to search the extenal hd?

  • STILL searching for a way to put DVDs on my iPod!

    I downloaded the "Videora" movie converter, but apparantly you need the "DVD Decrypter" program, which cannot be found to download on it's site. Is there any other programs (prefereably free) that I can use?

    Videora and DVD Decrypter are both Windows products.
    You can't use them on your Powerbook.
    As previously suggested... you are looking for Handbrake.
    It's very simple to use, and its free.
    There's even a Handbrake Lite if you want a more simplified solution for DVD conversion.

  • Single User Mode: Searching for root...

    My 2 year old unplugged my PowerMac iMac G5 (single) and now it won't start up.
    I was finally able to boot up off of Disk Warrior and replace the directory, but it won't start up past the gray Apple screen. The fan comes on after about 45 seconds and blows hard. Then, I get the circle with a line through it, in gray. I've never seen that on a mac.. the international "no" sign.
    When trying to start up in Single User Mode, I get a long list of stuff either disabled, not found, missing etc and then it starts writing to the screen every 30 seconds a line like:
    Still searching for root.
    I've tried pulling the back off, resetting the SMU, starting up in Safe Mode, etc.
    This has happened with storms before and I can usually get it back.
    I don't have original install discs.

    When you say you have "OSX" but not the "original install disks" do you mean the mac originally came with an earlier version and you don't have those disks, but you have a retail copy of Tiger?
    The circle with the slash means that Open Firmware cannot find BootX. Basically, I think this means that Open Firmware recognises the startup volume as such but cannot hand control to the operating system at all. BootX is what it uses to get the operating system going. Without this, as you've seen, you cannot make even single-user mode.
    What is SMU?
    *Is your data backed up? If not, prioritise that unless you can afford to loose it.*
    Does DiskWarrior repair permissions? If not and you have the Tiger retail version, try running Disk Utility to do that. I don't think this will help, but it won't hurt.
    Do you have another Mac? If so and you have the retail Tiger, you might be able to use Pacifist to replace BootX (in /System/Library/CoreServices). Alternatively, if the other Mac is running the same version of the OS and is also a PPC Mac, you could try copying the file from that machine.
    Before you do any of this (with the exception of the permissions repair), try to backup any data you need if that's at all possible.

  • My intel iMac keeps searching for a drive that doesn't exist.

    My intel iMac opens a window saying it cannot find a drive with the IP address of 10.0.1.196 which, ot the best of my knowledge doesn't exist. The address is always the same, even after reprovisioning our entire system from modem to all the computers we have. The window will come up after a restart but before I have our server selected, but it will also pop up at almost any time. When it does, after clicking OK, it will reappear every few seconds for 5-10 times then stop. Very aggrevating because the window puts whatever I am doing in the background and I must click the OK and close the window before proceding with my work. Any way to stop this?

    I am not sure that I got the wireless instructions correct. I opened the window to connect to a wireless network and instead of typing in a name I just typed in a dash. This caused my Airport icon to be grayed out. I then rejoined our office network by turning off and then restarting Airport.
    For the ethernet connection, I did as instructed and then tested by turning off the Airport on the computer so I was only connected using ethernet.
    Neither of these worked and the computer still searches for the same IP address.

  • Nokia Software Updater N70...still searchung for a...

    ... i need help....the updater is going to step 2/3 and is still searching for a connected phone....
    and it is connetec..cause...nokia pc suite is working!!
    with regards from berlin
    angelo

    This seems to be a problem not with the phone (Nokia N70) but with Windows.
    You should make sure that Windows Firewall or Anti Virus Applications such as Norton Antivirus permit the Nokia Software Updater application to connect to the Internet.
    You need to configure exclusions, for example enable the application in Windows Firewall or in Norton AntiVirus go to 'Internet Worm Protection' and go to 'Program Control' then add the Updater application which resides at the following path:
    "C:\Program Files\Nokia\Nokia Software Updater\nsu_ui_client.exe"
    After that run the application again (you may possibly have to restart). The application will then connect to the Internet and detect your phone.
    You'll probably find (like me) however that the phone already has the most current firmware.
    Take care running firmware updates though, sometimes they can be more costly than any benefits, especially if something goes wrong.
    Best of luck.
