Hi....
I' v been doing this too and the VPN wouldn' t work, maybe you should configure it from the scratch....by the way i also got problem with protection profiles and they don' t work too. I think it always problem if we upgraded from v2.8 MR11 to v3.0. I do not know why? Maybe others can give an answer?

Just a question. Have you tried MR3 patch 6 on the 100A? Im curious if it is an MR4 thing, or a non MR2 issue. Fortinet rewrote the IPSec section of their firmware between 2.8 and 3.0.

Hi Sabuthomas,
I had the same problem when I upgraded a 50A to version 3 firmware from 2.8.
The problem I had was caused by the 50A sending out IPSEC packets using the source IP of a secondary IP address and not the primary IP of the main interface.
I verified this by using debug commands in the cli.
diagnose debug application ike 3
diagnose debug enable
You can see the IPSEC Phase1 initial request coming into the firewall from the remote end and the source IP was different to the one it was supposed to use.
This might not be your problem however and I would agree with ATA and delete the entire vpn config and start again which will most likely work.
Cheers
Paul

A very strange thing which I found is that, as per my following scenario
Main Office FGT100A NAT Mode
Branch office FGT50A Tranparent Mode Ver 3.00 build 400
My VPN will work fine if I downgrade my main office to 2.8 MR11 without changing any configuration in VPN in both end
But when I upgrade my main office to 3.0 MR4 then my VPN failed and I received error massage “Negotiate SA Error: No matching gateway for new phase 1 request.†In my main office FGT and no error message in my branch office FGT
