Stolen from here are the steps to upgrade WSS2.0 to WSS3.0 when upgrading TFS 2005 to TFS 2008. Worked well for me!
Run Orcas TFS installer to upgrade your VS2005 TFS server. At end of this process you should have Orcas server with WSS2.0 configured.
Next Run WSS prescan.exe tool to verify if you can upgrade WSS from 2.0 to 3.0
Run WSS3.0 Installer and select the upgrade option
The installer will ask you for new Administration Port. You cannot use the old port(17012). You need to select new port number.
Complete all the installation and upgrade steps for WSS3.0
Now you should have Orcas server with WSS3.0. You still cannot use the system as you still need to tell TFS about the new URLs for WSS and also upload the new site templates for WSS3.0
Run Share Point Extensions for TFS setup. This should be located at InstallMedia\WssExt directory. This will upload the new site templates for WSS3.0.
The upgrade changes the WSS admin site URL. To make this change in TFS you can use TFSAdminUtil . Following is the command you can use.
TFSAdminUtil configureconnections /SharepointAdminUri:http://wssserver:adminport
Note: You can use TFSAdminUtil to update all the different URL's for WSS. Following is the syntax for updating all WSS related attributes in TFS.
TFSAdminUtil configureconnections
/SharepointURI:http://wssserver:80
/SharepointSitesUri:http://wssserver:80/sites
/SharepointAdminUri:http://wssserver:adminport
/SharepointUnc:\\wssserver\sites
Finally - make sure you change the shortcut to SharePoint Central Administration in the Administration Tools to point to the new port !!
I had a problem with the Central Administration reporting Service Unavailable.
This was due to an incorrect login in the application pool (IIS - Sharepoint Central Administration v3), which was fairly easy to find.
