Microsoft.SharePoint.Upgrade.SPUpgradeException: Action 12.0.1.0 of Microsoft.Office.Server. Search.Upgrade.SearchServiceInstanceSequence failedFebruary 1, 2008 14:14Migrating your SharePoint environment inside a virtual machine might cause some unexpected behaviour. It can be possible that you bump into this error:
And for Google indexing the detailed error report:
Exception: Microsoft.SharePoint.Upgrade.SPUpgradeException: Action 12.0.1.0 of Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Upgrade.SearchServiceInstanceSequence failed. —> System.InvalidOperationException: This access control list is not in canonical form and therefore cannot be modified.

SPPersistedUpgradableObject.Upgrade(Boolean recursively) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Upgrade.SPManager.Initialize() at Microsoft.SharePoint.PostSetupConfiguration.UpgradeBootstrapTask.Run() at Microsoft.SharePoint.PostSetupConfiguration.TaskThread.ExecuteTask() The solution is hard to find, but easy to fix. The reason that the SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard upgrade sequence fails is that it is not possible for the process to access certain registry keys on the computer. Checking out the permissions on the registry keys with regedit.exe learns that the permissions are incorrectly ordered:
It’s a bit unclear what caused this behaviour, but it seems that changing/updating the SID of a virtual machine is the problem. Now the solution: Browse with regedit.exe to the following 3 registry nodes:
Right click the registry keys and choose the Permissions option from the menu.
Regedit will show you a warning message about the incorrectly ordered permissions. Press OK and also close the permission dialog that is presented afterwards. Once you fixed all 3 keys this way, you can start up the SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard again and finish your migration.

i didn’t find the following:
-HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\12.0
-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AppID\{58F1D482-A132-4297-9B8A-F8E4E600CDF6}
i can only find: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Eventlog\Application\SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard

Hi Jamil. Those keys will only exist after you experience the error. SharePoint will first have to install the keys that belonging to version 2007
