Some clients not updating, reporting 8007000E error in WindowsUpdate.log

At customer location workstations doesn't install any updates anymore. This because of the following error in windowsupdate.log: COMAPI WARNING: ISusInternal::GetUpdateMetadata2 failed, hr=8007000E. For it seems this we be only the case on Windows 7 x86 systems. Installing a new hotfix must do the trick. Let's have a look at that one.
 

The issue is discussed on Microsoft TechNet too:
Some Clients Not Updating. Reporting "Compliant." hr=8007000E Error in WindowsUpdate.log
 
For it seems there is an issue in which the Windows Update Client displays an out-of-memory error during the scan operation (0x8007000E) on systems that have small amounts of physical RAM. Therefore a hotfix is needed.
 
The hotfix (KB3050265) can be download here:
New Windows Update Client for Microsoft Windows 7 Available

After installation (and a required reboot) there was still an error however. Therefore we started the following commands (in an elevated command prompt) to make it functional again:
Net stop wuauserv
Sc config wuauserv type= own
Net start wuauserv

After that everything started to work again! :)

Just FYI, KB3050265 has been superseded by several updates. The latest WU client is http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3102810 and fixes the same plus additional issues :)
