- Does this wsus server has already works ? or it never works ?
- Can you check that update file have been downloading ? In the Wsus Console, select one of the updates view, right click on the header and click 'File status'
- How computers report for updates (Installed, not installed, not applicable or unknow) ?
- On a client computer, trigger a detection and then open the file C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log

There services must be running :
- Update service
- Windows Internal Database (if you are not using SQL)
- SQL (if you are not usine WID)
- IIS must be running.
When you said "wsus is still not working", can you be more specifique on what happen ?

None of the clients can get updates from wsus. I think it is wsus is not getting the updates to send out. Because when I run update on the clients it says that it has all of the updates. If I do it from Windows update there are updates to installWednesday, September 24, 2014 3:18 PM

How your clients are knowing from WSUS? Via GPO? Did you control if
your clients get the correct settings from your GPO?Have a look at the Startpage from your WSUS, will WSUS download many
updates? http://www.wsus.de/images/wsus-version.png Pls post a
Screenshot from your WSUS.
