When upgrading from 16.4 to 16.8 I'm stuck at the Start-NAVAppDataUpgrade step.

Start-NAVAppDataUpgrade -Name "System Application" -Version 16.8.19389.0 -ServerInstance DEV -Tenant DEV -Verbose

Note: this is a multitenant instance.

Anyone an idea of what I'm doing wrong or how I can solve this?

    Changing the license back to the Cronus Demo license helped me through this.

    Unfortunately I'm now stuck with another problem, will open a new thread for this.
