Problem restore WSS_Content to new WSS installation
A week ago our 2008 server has crashed which contained our Sharepoint-Server.
Sharepoint has made a backup every day.
After reinstalling the server, sharepoint, SQL-server, I want to restore the configuration and content.
When restoring through Central Administration I get the error.
"This Content Database has a schema version which is not supported in this farm"
What are the steps to take to restore the WSS_Content-database?
- Version of WSS is 14.0.4763.1000.
- Version of the WSS_content is: 14.0.4762.1000

I've successfully restored the WSS_Content-database in SQL 2008 R2.
When I want to attach it to a Web Application, the error "This Content Database has a schema version which is not supported in this farm" is shown.
The current content database is named: WSS_Content{GUID}.
Is there a possibility the move the content from one database to another?

Hi,
Provide these details:
1. Whether this server was holding your database also?
2. If not then after installing Sharepoint execute psconfig and choose connect to existing farm and select the configuration database you have.
3. If yes then first restore your DB backups and then again execute the wizard.
I hope this will help you out.Thanks, Rahul Rashu

1. This was a stand-alone server and this was the only database.
3. I only have DB backups through SharePoint, I did not make any backups via SQL Server. When restoring the WSS_Content-database I receive this error "This Content Database has a schema version which is not supported in this farm"
@Steven: I've reinstalled the whole server and also MOSS to the latest version 14.0.4763.1000

Alongside Rashu's questions, I'd aslo ask if you've installed MOSS at all?Steven Andrews | SharePoint Professional | http://www.twitter.com/backpackerd00d | https://baron72.wordpress.com/
