Recently I have migrated SharePoint site from 2007 to SP 2010. I was able fix few issues after the migraion, but I am unable to fix the error on specific custom list. I am able to add items to the list, but when I update existing items on the list it's throwing the following exception

SQL

System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131904
 at Microsoft.SharePoint.Library.SPRequestInternalClass.AddOrUpdateItem(String bstrUrl, String bstrListName, Boolean bAdd, Boolean bSystemUpdate, Boolean bPreserveItemVersion, Boolean bUpdateNoVersion, Int32& plID, String& pbstrGuid, Guid pbstrNewDocId, Boolean bHasNewDocId, String bstrVersion, Object& pvarAttachmentNames, Object& pvarAttachmentContents, Object& pvarProperties, Boolean bCheckOut, Boolean bCheckin, Boolean bMigration, Boolean bPublish, String bstrFileName, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pListDataValidationCallback, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pRestrictInsertCallback, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pUniqueFieldCallback)

An item event receiver class is associated to the list and the custom code on ItemUpdating event has been successful when debugging the code. Application throws the above exception after executing custom code on ItemUpdating event.

Did anyone come across this issue during SharePoint migration??

You have debugged the event receiver but was that in the same environment that is producing the exception? Is there anything showing up in the ULS? If not, try adding some trace statements to your code to help identify possible problems.

Basically, I am setting up a dev environment and did debug on the same box. I am sure custom code on ItemUpdating event is not causing any issues. Because I commented out the code which updates some calculated (non-required) fields and encountered the same exception. Here is what I got from ULS logs.

You have given nothing new here.
If you look through the log you should see the events that are occurring and before the exception. This should help you to identify what may be happening.
