I noticed the followling line in the stack trace:

Caused by: org.alfresco.repo.search.SearcherException: More than one root node in index: 2

This usually indicates that you have more than one set of index files or they are not in sync with the database.

The best thing to do is point the alf_data directory outside the bundle (rather than the relative path it has by default).

In your repository.properties file you should also have something like:

dir.root=c:\alf_data

See the repository configuration wiki page for more info: http://www.alfresco.org/mediawiki/index.php/Repository_Configuration

Thanks gavinc, that did it! I was working on migrating from mysql to mssql. In fact, I've even got this to work with sql 2005 now. Only with the jDTS driver. The ms jdbc driver for 2005 doesn't work, I think it has to do with hibernate support.

Thanks for the rapid response and a correct response that provided the resolution!!!
