I was able to upgrade our main intranet site's database file using this shell command.. though initially i ran into a missing feature error, reporting related, which i fixed per below:
Vssqlprod01 - 2008 x64 r2, sql 2008 r2 sql box for sharepoint 2010 (with FE installed too)
Vsintranet02 - FE box
Vsintranet01 - Old FE box
Vssql01 - old sql 2005 box with the 2007 sharepoint dbs
For the missing feature ID e018.. this was reporting services related.. I had to install the FE Sharepoint 2010 and join it to the farm on the Sql box as well.
I had to use SQL Reporting Services config tool.. then set the service account to the same account i used to setup sharepoint 2010.. In fact all related account settings had to be set to this same account on the reporting config..
I then had to make sure i browsed the right url.. in my case:
http://vssqlprod01/ReportServer_SHAREPOINT (from a different server, or add this link to the local intranet zone if browsing on the same machine to avoid the creds prompt)
In central admin i then set the reporting services config to this url and set it to "trusted".. i then went back to the Sql box and the reportserver.config file and commented out <RSWindowsNegotiate>
I also set the account there to the same account..
When clicking ok it prompts for creds, i used the same account again to finish it off.
I then re-ran the upgrade command..
This time the main intranet site functions.. however it still complained with the exact same error message:
missing feature Id = 367b94a9-4a15-42ba-b4a2-32420363e018
So for now i ignored it.. the main site is functioning with all the content from 2007..
However, I tried the same steps to upgrade the old mysite database and it fails no matter what.. same error message too.. only difference here is, the upgrade fails completely, unlike for the main site where at least the content worked after the upgrade, despite the error.
Here is the more specific error related to mysite:
The feature with Id 367b94a9-4a15-42ba-b4a2-32420363e018 is referenced in the database [mysite07_content], but is not installed on the current farm. The missing feature may cause upgrade to fail. Please install any solution which contains the feature and restart upgrade if necessary.
MySite07_content is the old 2007 content database which i attached.
Is it not possible to upgrade the old mysite content? I still dont understand why this feature id is missing after i fixed it as well...
Thanks for any thoughts..
