Are you sure you have the same service pack level? Any hotfixes that may have changed store.exe?

I hope I haven't overlooked some major info resource. My search on the knowledgebase only resulted in articles on corrupted databases, which frankly, I don't think is my problem. :-) Please bear with me. we're trying to restore an exchange server (5.5sp3) with NT Backup. AFAIK the same sitename/domain are used in the installation. Only, the old one ran as user exchsrv and this one runs as administrator. We install exchange, run the service pack, reboot, and use nt backup to restore the exchange stores. Then when trying to start the information store we get errors like: 1105 1005 Database too new. Database too new to be upgraded. I think the problem is somewhere in the last... Why would it try to upgrade a store that's already the same version/format? Anyway around it?
