Lucky! As there are custom templates and web parts involved too.
Thanks for the tip!

Also reinstalling any templates (that stumped me for a bit, I thought I had
corrupted the database)
Cheers

Having done it many times (while testing our 2003 2007 upgrade and in
moving between servers during deployment), have never had any major probs.
Always found it to be a simple process - assuming the hostname doesn't
change. When moving to a different hostname we had a few hiccups but
nothing too complicated. The only thing in that list of tasks I can see
that immediately jumps out as being missing is if you have made any changes
to file system images, layouts, aspx, css etc don't forget about them.

Subject: [OzMOSS] SharePoint_Config Problem
Hi all,
I've recently come across a SharePoint installation which appears to have
stuffed a bit of a botched Service Pack 1 installation.
When running SPSReport everything appears fine, however, this error does
appear:
The specified SPConfigurationDatabase Name=SharePoint_Config
Parent=SPDatabas
eServiceInstance has been upgraded to a newer version of SharePoint. Please
upgr
ade this SharePoint application server before attempting to access this
object.
No backup of the database is available (grr!)
Sounds serious and times are not running at all.
My plan is to just blow away the configuration database and reattach the
content databases then reinstall the WSS MOSS service packs.
However never actually performing this action before, I'm after some
information about the process of recreating the configuration database and
reattaching the content databases.
My understanding of this processes is
. Backup everything (databases and images of web application
servers)
. Remove/Delete existing configuration database
. Run the SharePoint technology wizard, creating a new farm CA
site
. Create a new web application (same settings as previous site, i.e.
host header, port, etc)
. Delete the newly created content database
. Reattach the original content database.
. Everything should work with the new databases as they did with the
old (however, no more errors)
Does anyone have any links to any white papers or sites, which outlines the
process of attaching a existing content database? Or if someone has gone
though this previously and has any advise, it is most welcome! Or is there
any gotcha's with it?
Thanks,
Daniel Brown
