I've taken my moss 2007 db backup and used attach method to upgrade on sharepoint 2010. Upgrade went successful and users can see the sites and can navigate also. Interface is same as moss 2007. I am facing two problems on migrated portal.

  1. I can only Visual upgrade HOME site and on other sites when i click on VISUAL UPGRADE i see "File not found" error.

  2. Some of the lists which contains pdf documents, word files and excel files when portal contributor who has rights to upload, edit and delete permissions when user clicks on any document to perform operations it says "List does not exist The page you selected contains a list that does not exist. It may have been deleted by another user." But when I tried creating a new list the user was able to perform upload, delete etc..strange..but not working with existing lists.

How to resolve the above mentioned issues...I am new to moss so kindly guide by giving a hint where to find options to fix it. Would appreciate guidance like for example go to Site Settings-> Visual Upgrade ..etc

  • 1. Rather than doing visual upgrade, I would iterate through the sites and set the master pages individually. Do you have a custom master page? Or are you pointing both System master and custom master page to v4.master? Here is a script that would go over the webs and upgrade to v4.master, change version and make it so that you wont go back to v3 again via url. (vasya10.wordpress.com/2011/03/26/…)

    Well finally i did solve the problems by myself. It was the issue with the incorrect Alternate Access Mapping :) ..I've changed the intranet one and it worked :) Viola !! :)

Reset to default

Check if its still pointing old URL. ULS logs would be much handy to solve this.

MOSS 2007 has a /default.aspx page which now converted in SharePoint 2010 to /pages/default.aspx or /sitepages/default.aspx. You may need to create a new page as default page and put the content back on it or use SharePoint Designer > All Files to locate the old page.

Hope it helps.

As mentioned in the comments, the issue was caused by Alternate Access Mappings misconfiguration.

"File not found" errors in web parts and application page UI are often indication of underlying FileNotFoundExceptions thrown in the case of requesting a non-bound host header from an existing SharePoint web application.
