SBS 2008 Sharepoint Site Unavailable – The Database ShareWebDB is not accessible

On a 2008 SBS Server if you find users cant access the company sharepoint site on http://companyweb/default.aspx then it could be caused by a windows update.

If you see errors in the event log with the details below :

EVENT ID : 6800
Source : Windows Sharepoint Service

Message :

The database ShareWebDb on SERVERNAME\Microsoft##SSEE is not accessible to missing Windows Internal Database signatures.

To resolve this go to the directory below in a elevated command prompt session

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\BIN

Then restart the “Windows Internal Database Microsoft #SSEE” Service

Then run the command in your command prompt:

psconfig -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait -force

It will then proceed to update the sharepoint site.

Once complete it should be all working.
