When updating our Office Communication Phone edition phones to the latest release, I was running into the “Thread was being aborted” error message.

Jens’ article helped me solve it in no time.  My problem was actually memory.  I added another 256mb and it worked.

I did the web.config and IIS modifications anyway for good measure.

Within 15 minutes, my phone at home updated itself and I was a happy camper

Thanks Jens!
