SPS2003 Upgrade Error When Upgrading to MOSS 2007: Not detaching landing page

  • [アーティクル]

When trying to do the upgrade from MOSS 2007 from SPS 2003 you may receive an error in the event log that resembles the following:

This may be due to the fact that the site being upgraded uses a specific site template that doesn't have a mapping to a MOSS template.  Thus, the upgrade for this site fails.

For those sites with a custom site template, there has to be some development work done in order to migrate those.  The following URL leads to an upgrade article for sites with custom site templates that will require you to use some steps in the WSS 3.0 upgrade solution accelerator to move them.  Basically, you have to prep an upgrade definition prior to the upgrade.  This will have to be done for all custom site templates.

Basically, once you build the upgrade definition file you place it in the \upgrade directory where the upgrade process looks at it and processes it during the upgrade.

    We are getting the same error in the upgrade log and have created the new upgrade definition file for the ciustom templates. Still it is giving this error. Any suggestion.
