WSUS 2 SP1 and WSS 3.0 problems running both on same server

TheMSsForum.com: The Microsoft Software Forum

Hi,
Can anyone point me to any information regarding the subject. I've
attempted to install WSUS 2 sp1 on a server that is already running
Sharepoint services 3.0. When I installed it to a custom website I kept
getting an error in the management console about the SelfUpdate service
couldn't be detected. So I found an kBase article (don't remember the
number) and ran through it's workarounds. Still get the same message on the
admin console.

So I thought maybe uninstalling it, and renistalling it to the default web
site would help it along. Nope! Because of the WSS 3.0 installation the
Default web site won't start (both sites use the same port (port 80)). Okay
so I try move the two services (ClientWebService and SelfUpdate) service to
the WSS 3.0 site, since they must run on port 80, instead of the customized
port of 8530. Still doesn't work.

How can I get these two services to play nicely in the same sandbox?

TIA,
Art Billings

There are known co-existence configuration modifications that must be made
for WSUS v2 and WSS 2.0 to run on the same system, and I have no indications
that these issues are not affected by WSS 3.0. See this article for details:

How do I make WSUS work on my Sharepoint server?

Note also that WSUS will =not= run on a MOSS2007 or SPS2003 server; only on
the core WSS installation.

Lawrence I appreciate your response, but would you do me a favor and break
out the acronyms "MOSS2007" and "SPS2003". Do you mean SBS2003 server
(Small Business Server 2003)?

Thanks,
Art

MOSS 2007 = Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007

SPS 2003 = SharePoint Portal Server 2003

MOSS 2007 is the third version of SharePoint Portal Server (but renamed) -
the earlier two were SPS 2001 and SPS 2003.

SBS 2003 is Small Business Server 2003 .... but then you knew that.
