    Site Collection Template will not add to central admin

    If you are trying to upload a Custom Site Template on your central administration site using the commands:

    stsadm -o addtemplate -filename "devcowcustomv1.stp" -title "custom site template"

    or

    stsadm -o enumtemplates

    You might get the error message "This web service does not support custom web templates." if the user you are running the command with does not have permissions to write to the database.  This can happen if you have a machine for the central administration and a machine for the database.

    I would hope that the individual running this particular command does in fact have those rights.  It's good to see however that if you don't the command fails, although the error message could be better.
