Sharepoint Configuration Failed. RRS feed

  • Question

  • Greetings,

    I was following old old version (V1) of Ramblings of a Home Server User's guide for installing Sharepoint Services 3.0 on a WHS and then realized that there was an updated version that was generated after Power Pack 1.  I uninstalled Sharepoint 3.0 from my machine to start fresh, rebooted it, then started to follow the updated guide (V2).  I run into trouble when Sharepoint Services Configuration Fails.  This is what I get...

    Failed to register SharePoint services.

    An exception of type System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException was thrown.  Additional exception information: Could not find the stored procedure "dbo.proc_MSS_GetConfigurationProperty".

     

    I have the log generated, but unless someone needs it I'll refrain from posting it because it's quite lengthy.  Any assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.

    Edit: Spellchecked.

  • Jon,

    I'm no expert on Sharepoint and my suggestion would be to do a server re-install if you can't get it fixed.
    However, there is a dedicated Sharepoint forum, so while you wait, it might be worthwhile posting on there as well.

    Good luck,

    Colin

  • Jon,

    In the log file, it should show at what step it failed. If you could post that relevant section, it might help diagnose the problem.

  • Okay, I'll cross-post there.

  • You will probably not get a lot of assistance on this, other than the document you downloaded. Unfortunately, running Sharepoint on Windows Home Server is a completely unsupported operation, and if someone chooses to do so they are doing it at their own risk. As such, there will not be a lot of assistance in these forums.

    Probably your best bet is going to be to step back to square one with a server reinstallation, as Colin has suggested, then see if you can get Sharepoint configured on a clean server. Just be aware that the only supported method of recovery for a WHS computer which has suffered a severe failure such as a failed system drive, or a corrupted OS installation, is a server reinstallation. This will require you to reconfigure anything you've added to your server, including Sharepoint.

    I'm not on the WHS team, I just post a lot. :)

  • if I can avoid doing that, I will.  I don't want to risk losing what data I have on the server for a superfluous feature.  Thanks though.
