    I've got a Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 machine with all updates.
    I've configured WSUS 3.0 SP2 server role as of official MS detailed guide; IIS role has been added as part of WSUS Server Manager wizard role; I've used a remote SQL Server 2005 instead of Windows Internal Database.
    In Configuration Wizard, I choose using Microsoft Update in the step "Upstream Server"; I've got no proxy, so I skip following step.
    When time to "Start Connecting" to the upstream server (that is, to Microsoft Update), I've got a Web Exception saying "Object moved to".
    Full error trace available on request.

    This issue has been observed by a number of people installing new WSUS servers over the past 24 hours.

    It was also discussed in this thread.

    One indication is that the issue was transient and is now resolved.

    In another case we were able to successfully work around the issue by applying KB2734608 and then running the setup wizard.

    Thanks Lawrence. KB2734608 sorted the issue for me on a new WSUS SP2 install on a Server 2008 R2 SP2 DC.

    As an FYI, it must be a very long transient, because a new install I just performed also required the KB update. It worked great after that. Thanks!

    Yeah, it isn't a transient error. A back-end change in the catalog now requires KB2734608 in order to initially sync the products/classifications list.
