I know this isn't directly a JAMF issue, but I haven't found any help out there on this.
Basically I updated my SUS to Mountain Lion so I can support serving updates to Mt Lion CLients...pretty simple.
However, one of the updates has been stuck on the 'downloading' status for a few days now and I can't seem to cancel it. Because of this anything else I want to enable never gets past 'waiting' and eventually stops waiting and goes back to 'available'; i.e.: not downloaded.
Anybody have experience with this and maybe some tips on how to get this thing going again?

+26Open Terminal:
sudo serveradmin fullstatus swupdateLook for this path:
swupdate:updatesDocRoot = "/var/db/swupd/"Stop the software update service
sudo serveradmin stop swupdatedelete your cache (in this case if it /var/db/swupd/) then
rm -rf /var/db/swupd/re-enable your service and it will download everything again
sudo serveradmin start swupdateMight want to do this at night before you go home...
+6Thanks, I was with you until 'rm -rf /var/db/swupd/'
That directory is for Lion and before- Mountain Lion doesn't have that directory.
It uses /Volumes/Library/Server/Software Update.
+26Sorry that I wasn't clear but yes it might be different, you want to
rm -rf the path that you get from swupdate:updatesDocRoot = "[your path here]"
so in your case it would be /Volumes/Library/Server/Software Update/
The reason is you want to delete what you have and just redownload the whole shabang once more
