Issues like these are why I never recommend in-place upgrades. Sorry that is no help to you now.
Thanks Webster From: Rene de Haas [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, February 10, 2013 5:17 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: upgrading W2K3 to W2K8 both 32 bit, uninstalling Powershell breaks things. Hi, At the beginning of the upgrade it does a compatibility check and tells me to remove powershell. I check and it's version 1.0. When starting the uninstall it lists a whole bunch of stuff that will break if I uninstall it. Amongst other things the dot net framework, which breaks other programs. Also the programs they desperately need were mentioned. The program is using SQL server 2008 btw. I googled but didn't see anything indicating a way I can do this without uninstalling it. I uninstalled powershell. upgrade to W2K8 went fine. Program errored. Unfortunately, allmost nothing about the program is on the internet. Only on the manufacturers website. And that information leaves something to be desired. Added powershell 1.0 through features. Didn't fix the error. Repair dot net. Didn't fix it. In IIS I keep getting "The configuration section 'protocolMapping' cannot be read because it is missing a section declaration. The web.config file hasn't changed though. Maybe I could start over, change the powershell registry key a bit and after the upgrade restore it?
