Sophos Server Protection cache status : error

Hello,
I recently installed a SUM server on VM windows server 2008R2, the installation finished without error, the server appears in the server devices under Sophos central, I give it the role of cache update but after a few hours I found that it displays an error of the cache status, on the server a message appears every 3 minuts indicates that the sophos cache update has stopped and then restarted without there being a download of the updates.
in the CU.log I got the following error message:

  • Hi Zeid Ben Salem,

    The reported error seems to be a result of usage of Windows Server 2008 R2 without the below mentioned patch. Kindly please find below the resolution to this issue.

    Update Cache does not work in Vanilla versions of Windows Server 2008 R2 Core.

    The following error will be logged in the file "C:\ProgramData\Sophos\UpdateCache\Logs\uc.txt":

    Error: [InstallCertificateStateHandler::NewCertInstallation:71] Caught exception installing certificate. Error - CX509Enrollment::InstallResponse failed: [0x800b010a] A certificate chain could not be built to a trusted root authority.

    The CertEnroll control does not work on unpatched Windows 2008 R2 servers. To solve this issue, install the hotfix from Microsoft.
