When you restore Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server data to a computer that is running Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2001 or Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003, you experience unexpected behaviors. For example, certain services that are required by SharePoint Portal Server do not start correctly. Additionally, you experience the following symptoms.
Note The specific symptoms depend on the version of SharePoint Portal Server that is installed on the computer.

- If you are running SharePoint Portal Server 2003, an error message that is similar to the following is logged to the SPS_SiteCreation_PortalName.log file:
Time Portal creation failed Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: The database schema is too
old to perform this operation in this SharePoint cluster. Please upgrade the
database and try again. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
(0x81070571): The database schema is too old to perform this operation in this
SharePoint cluster. Please upgrade the database and try again.
This issue may occur if the version of SharePoint Portal Server that is installed on the server where you performed the backup operation is different from the version of SharePoint Portal Server that is installed on the server where you restore the backup to.
To resolve this issue, make sure that the server where you perform the backup operation and the server where you restore the backup are running the same version of SharePoint Portal Server and the same SharePoint Portal Server service pack. For example, if you backed up the portal site on a computer that is running SharePoint Portal Server 2001 Service Pack 3 (SP3), make sure that the computer where you restore the backup is also running SharePoint Portal Server 2001 SP3.
