Recently, we came across a need to migrate an existing (SharePoint 2007) RTM content database to a new farm, which had SP1 pre-installed. After taking a full backup of the existing database (through SQL Server), the backup was restored in the new farm.
Note: I should also mention that the database was migrating from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005.
After resetting the SharePoint servers, browsing to the site in question brought the following error:
Server error: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=96177
At this point, we detached the content database in question (Central Administration » Application Management » Content databases). Once the database was successfully detached from the farm, it was reattached using the following STSADM command:
stsadm -o addcontentdb -url ‹URL› -databasename ‹DBNAME›
Reattaching the content database with the above command completely successfully, and as an added benefit performed an inplace upgrade, bringing the database schema up to SP1. This might prove to be a helping hand when it comes to migrating to MOSS 2007 SP1 if your wish is to start with a new farm, but retain your original content.
