Client hits 80072EE2 error while downloading update from WSUS server

i had this problem but now it has been solved.there is some setting that you have to check.

  1. windows firewall,it should allow connections for private network and domain
  2. you should configure automatic update in group policy ( without enabling this option updating with wsus will not work)
  3. in IIS expand wsus website and select selfupdate and enable directory browsing and do the same job for clientwebservice
  4. in client pc open cmd and type " gpupdate /force " and check for updates

note: in group policy dont forget to set port for specify intranet microsoft update service location like "http://servername:8530" the default port for wsus is 8530

check this out for more detail information
