WSUS UI can't show updates. After some minutes a lost connection occours

Question

Hi

I have again problems with the buggy WSUS in Windows Server 2019.
I I like to show all updates (in UI Updates > All Updates > Not committed / All), but after a time a lost connection occours. I can reconnect, but retry the operation fails again. Less records seems able to show successfully.

Can somebody program this service bugless??

Thanks

Answer 1

Are you performing the proper WSUS maintenance including but not limited to running the Server Cleanup Wizard (SCW), declining superseded updates, running the SQL Indexing script, etc.?

Performing the monthly maintenance helps with being able to view all updates like you're wanting to do.

Hi
Yes, I started the assistant for cleanup after my post yesterday. This was processed during night. The management UI also lost the connection, but today it works again. At least to show all update records.
But nonetheless, the UI keeps losing the connection to the backend. Also while running the cleanup wizard.
