SharePoint 2016 – The upgraded database schema doesn’t match the TargetSchema
I have not had much exposure to SharePoint 2016 yet and have only just applied my first cumulative update. Unfortunately it didn’t go well and failed. Here is what I pulled out of the log file:
ERR Failed to upgrade SharePoint Products. An exception of type Microsoft.SharePoint.PostSetupConfiguration.PostSetupConfigurationTaskException was thrown. Additional exception information: The upgrade command is invalid or a failure has been encountered. Upgrade [SPContentDatabase Name=WEBBWORLD_Content_Portal] failed. (EventID:an59t) Exception: The upgraded database schema doesn't match the TargetSchema (EventID:an59t) (EventID:an59t) Upgrade Timer job is exiting due to exception: Microsoft.SharePoint.Upgrade.SPUpgradeException: The upgraded database schema doesn't match the TargetSchema
I tried running the upgrade command again but the same error occurred.
I got around this problem by upgrading the content databases using the Upgrade-SPContentDatabase cmdlet before running the upgrade:
Get-SPContentDatabase | Upgrade-SPContentDatabase
Thanks a lot!
Hi, Have you found any solution for this error? Is there any updated blog post with the solutions for this issue? I mean if this issue was solved then please share “how-to” with me… because I’m facing the same issue on one of my project… Also, can you please share the links to any blog post with topic about SharePoint 2016???
Thanks!!! The PS command worked like a charm 😉
Absolutely spot on. My heart sunk when I saw this error.
Ran the PS command and now all to successfully run PSConfig wizard per updated server. Awesome thanks!
It worked. Thank you.
