OK, this is driving me a little nuts!!
We have an installation of WSS 3.0 with PS2007 installed all working fine. I need to move the databases and the actual farm (so the web app stuff etc.) to a new server too. Currently the DB & Sites etc, are on one machine.
I've taken a full farm backup of the environment and am trying to again restore the full farm backup on the new WSS3 3.0 & PS2007 dedicated server.
I've installed both the above and run the config wizard so the basic are working fine. So I go to restore the my backup from the other server and select Farm type restore this runs through fine with the odd warning about some DB's being in restore state at points, but I don't think this is an issue.
All seems to look fine until I start the Project Application Service and it tries to provision the new site. Then it all seems to fall over. I get 4 errors in the event log 7072, 6993, 7009, 6422.
7072:
rovisioning 'PWA': One or more of the databases already contains schema. When editing or creating a Project Server instance, you may specify:
* Four databases that do not exist
* Four existing, blank databases
* Four existing Project Server databases of the same version from the same installation.
Combinations of blank, new, and existing databases are not allowed.
6993:
Provisioning 'PWA': Failed to provision databases. An exception occurred: Provisioning failed because the databases specified did not match..
7009:
Provisioning 'PWA': Failed to update site.
6422:
Provisioning 'PWA': Error provisioning site or databases.
I can access the PWA site without issue and things *look* ok (although I've not tried doing anything). I've been trying to resolve this for days! But no luck. Any advice would be massively appreciated.
