Upgrade of TFS2005 to 2008 getting: ERROR:Error 32000

Question

Hi,

I'm getting this error during an upgrade:

ERROR:Error 32000.The Commandline '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Team Foundation Server\Tools\TfsDb.exe" upgrade /server:"OFFGLOBETFS1" /property:"TFS_SERVICE_ACCOUNT=EUROPE\osecprin;TFS_REPORTING_ACCOUNT=EUROPE\ogtfsrep;LCID=1033;VSTF_AS_INSTANCE=OFFGLOBETFS1;VSTF_AS_DATABASE=TFSWarehouse;VSTF_AS_ACCOUNT=" /showui:1115554' returned non-zero value: 100.

I've seen reports of similar errors but none for /showui:1115554.

This is on Windows 2003, SQL 2005, single server installation.

Looks like this is the start of a long night...


Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,

Did you try "Retry"? If it failed as many as four times, could you post the VSMsiLog so that we can find  detail error message?

 

The value of option "/showui" is not important, the application only check whether the option is existing.

 

In addition, there is a Troubleshooting steps of this error. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd266793.aspx#EN32000

 

Best Regards.

Answer 2

Hi Ruiz,

I ran the command given in the error from a command prompt and it indicated that a database was being mirrored (which it was). Removed the mirroring on all the databases, clicked Retry and the upgrade worked.

Thanks for your reply.
