Hmm, no obvious error messages are visible. When I compare with my log, I see your Update engine version is 3.0.0.0, whereas mine is 3.7.0.0. Also your folder is on Drive 'I', whereas mine is on Drive 'C'.

There is a thread on the main part of the forum that may help.

Try to restore the update.dat file from backup, that fixed it for me.
