While setting up a new SBS 2008, i ran into a problem with installing KB954960 - a WSUS Update. It immediately said “Abgebrochen” when trying to install it through Windows Update. Trying to install the update manually instantly showed the reason why it didn work, though.
The reason for this failure is that it expects the WSUS groups to have English names - until this is fixed, there is an easy workaround to install the update:
Rename the group “WSUS-Administratoren” to “WSUS Administrators”Rename the group “WSUS-Berichterstatter” to “WSUS Reporters”
This will allow the update to install. It might make sense to rename the groups back to their original names, in case some other script depends on their names.
Another reason why running non-US versions of Windows is a bad idea in production environments - you just get additional trouble with zero advantages - but that’s for another post.
