Re: Upgrading SP 2.0 to 3.0 G M A 6/5/2007 6:05:01 PM Peter; Thanks for prompt response. I posted it here cause this is where the sharepoint support links led me. Thing is, I'm talking about the SharePoint services that are included with Windows Server 2003, not the Sharepoint Server product. I will post there nontheless. If there is another place called sharepoint newsgroups as you mention, can u point me there? Thanks again GMA "Peter Foldes" wrote: [Quoted Text] > You might want to repost this to the sharepoint newsgroups for a more accurate answer > > -- > Peter > > Please Reply to Newsgroup for the benefit of others > Requests for assistance by email can not and will not be acknowledged. > > "G M A" <GMA[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:B21E25B4-2708-4BA1-B405-FF158A653527[ at ]microsoft.com... > > Help! - I've 'installed' SP 3.0 over 2.0 but when I run prescan, I get the > > following error: > > "Error: Cannot determine server status for virtual server: ..." > > > > followed immediately by: > > "Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: Unable to get global configuration data. > > ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x81070550): Unable to get > > global configuration data. > > at > > Microsoft.SharePoint.Library.SPRequestInternalClass.GetVirtualServerProperty..."Skipping > > virtual server: ...

Re: Upgrading SP 2.0 to 3.0 G M A 6/5/2007 6:29:02 PM I just noticed that the original post got a little jumbled. Couldnt find an edit optione, so here's the way it should read: Help! - I've 'installed' SP 3.0 over 2.0 but when I run prescan, I get the following error: "Error: Cannot determine server status for virtual server: ..." followed immediately by: "Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: Unable to get global configuration data. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x81070550): Unable to get global configuration data. at Microsoft.SharePoint.Library.SPRequestInternalClass.GetVirtualServerProperty..." on the default web site and our employee portal. So why cant prescan access this virtual server? Any ideas? All other virtual servers return "Skipping virtual server: ... Server state = NeedExtend. Most likely this virtual server is not extended with WSS v2." "G M A" wrote: [Quoted Text] > Peter; > Thanks for prompt response.
