There is absolutely no need to install WSS 3.0 before installing MOSS 2007. That's the first. The second is that it looks as if you installed WSS 3.0 with either the Basic Installation or the Advanced Installation + single-server. If so it can not be updated to anything other than the same installation type of MOSS 2007. Even if you have installed SQL Server 2008, if you chose the wrong installation option, the fact that you have SQL Server 2008 installed will be ignored when deciding which db system to use.FAQ sites: (SP 2010) http://wssv4faq.mindsharp.com; (v3) http://wssv3faq.mindsharp.com and (WSS 2.0) http://wssv2faq.mindsharp.com Complete Book Lists (incl. foreign language) on each site.
