- MOSS 2007 Service Pack 1
- Februray Cummulative Update 2010 on MOSS 2007 SP2 or (!) KB979445

After the installation completed , SharePoint Products and Technology Configuration Wizard get stuck at task 9 of 10. When tried to access any site, encountered the following error:
Server error: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=96177

Event Viewer Error -
"The schema version (3.x.x.x) of the database on is not consistent with the expected database schema version (3.x.x.x) on . Connections to this database from this server have been blocked to avoid data loss. Upgrade the web front end or the content database to ensure that these versions match.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp."

Resolution:
=>either remove or detach the content database from the web application which are having the error.
=> in case this doesn’t work. run following stsadm command
-for specific site
stsadm –o upgrade –inplace –url –forceupgrade

-for all site at one go
stsadm –o upgrade –inplace –forceupgrade

=> if stsadm encounter any error - view log file (12/log/upgrade.log).and fix the issue ,and re-run same command.
