New Post: Some OUs stopped making status reports

Hello everyone,

first of all I'm not sure if that is in the right topic.

I've started using the Wsus Package Publisher around the 6th of July. The configuration and deployment of self created packages worked fine. I tested this with a special OU, where my and some other test PCs are members of.

Sadly, every PC from 3 different OUs stopped transmitting status reports. The last submitted reports are from the 6th of July (where the WPP was firstly configured and used).

We are using the WSUS Build 6.3.9600.18228, OS is Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard.

Here is an interesting part of a problematic client's Windows Update log:

And here from the SoftwareDistribution log from the server:

I have declined all self created updates from WPP in WSUS and deleted the updates and products in the WSUS Package Publisher.

I also did not publish the updates to any OUs other than my Test one.

Is it maybe a certificate issue? We distributed the certs via group policy.
All clients also download updates from the Internet, not from the replicate server itself.

Does anyone have an idea what's causing that and how to resolve it?

Thanks in advance!
