STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Site Server version 3.0.

MORE INFORMATION

Site Server 3.0 SP1 needs to be installed prior to this hotfix.

The service pack will overwrite hotfixes #980807a and #980813a. Installation of this hotfix will reapply both overwritten hotfixes.

For future reference, this file will be installed to <rootdrive>:\980827a_readme.htm

Additional setup required:

This fix requires additional database configuration. A SQL Server script Mcis2upd.sql has been provided to assist in this step. You must run this script against every existing SQL Server database supporting an updated hotfix Site Server Personalization and Membership Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Service instance. You must run this script before updating the LDAP servers with the hotfix. This script is a superset of the one that shipped with Microsoft Commercial Internet System 2.0 and subsequent service packs.

To run this script, perform the following steps:

Copy Mcis2upd.sql from the <siteserver>\bin\p&m directory to a location accessible from your SQL Server computer.
On the Start menu of the SQL Server computer, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 6.5, and then click SQL Enterprise Manager.
Click the plus sign (+) next to the name of the SQL Server computer that is hosting the Membership Directory, click the plus sign (+) next to Databases, and then click the Membership Directory database.
On the Tools menu, click SQL Query Tool.
In the Query window, click the Load SQL Query icon. In the Open File dialog box, open Mcis2upd.sql from the location where it was copied to in step 1. The Mcis2upd.sql script is loaded into the Query window.
Click the Execute Query icon.

NOTE: The script may display a warning on your partitioned databases. You can safely ignore the following warning:

   Invalid object name 'DsTimestamp'
