MigrateSPUsers: Sharepoint 2003 user account migration tool

January 30, 2008   9:10

At my current Sharepoint 2003 to 2007 migration project, we have to migrate Sharepoint 2003 users to a different domain server. On my world wide web search I bumped into an utility called “SPUserUtil” that was part of the “SharePoint Utility Suite”, but unfortunately the author decided to take the project offline and it is no longer available.

This blog post from Alexander Windel provided enough information about the process of migrating Sharepoint users. For WSS sites you can use the “stsadm -o migrateuser” command, but this is not enough for a Sharepoint 2003 Portal Server. The problem is that you’ll also need to use code to call the function PortalAccountMigrationManager.MigrateAccount() in the object model.

Last evening I created a small Sharepoint user migration utility, to make our life a bit easier. It will run both commands for you and it will allow you to migrate a larger batch of Sharepoint users at once.

This product requires ASP.NET v2.0 to be set to ‘Allow’ in the list of Internet Information Services (IIS) Web Server Extensions

I’m currently performing a migration process and during the Moss installation the following error message is presented:

“This product requires ASP.NET v2.0 to be set to ‘Allow’ in the list of Internet Information Services (IIS) Web Server Extensions. If it is not available in the list, re-install ASP.NET v2.0.”

But on my machine Visual Studio 2005 and .NET2 are installed, so that’s a bit strange. Checking out the IIS extensions panel is indeed not showing the v2.0 version.

To solve the issue open your command prompt en navigate to:
%drive%\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.nnnnn
where nnnnn is the least significant version number of ASP.NET 2.0.

Now run the following command at the command prompt:
“aspnet_regiis.exe -iru -enable”
and the issue should be fixed.
