SYMPTOMS

Synchronization of the WSUS server fails with the error message "There was an error adding updates to the database. Please try to synchronize again, or check your database configuration."

CAUSE

This is due to a bug in the RC release that prevented certain content from flowing down to a WSUS server.

WORKAROUND

The workaround for now is as follows:

1. Un-check the Office product from the synchronization options
2. Synchronize your WSUS Server
3. Recheck Office from synchronization options
   
4. Synchronize again.
