I have followed the directions for KB3159706 exactly. I never had 3148812 but saw problems when my WSUS installed 3159706 to itself. Once I followed these instructions https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3159706 my WSUS now starts fine, but on all clients
pointing at the WSUS I get "Windows could not search for new updates" code 80244008.
YES, I have run postinstall / servicing.
YES, I have added HTTP activation feature
YES, I have edited web.config even though I'm not using SSL for WSUS.
All of these changes now let my WSUS run (I can get to the GUI), but no clients can receive updates. Should I just uninstall 3159706 and wait for MS for fix this junk properly?
