I am attempting to upgrade GP 10.0 to GP 2013. I have installed GP 2013 and restored my GP 10.0 databases according to the
Article ID 878449 - "How to transfer an existing GP install to new server.." When I try to run utilities I receive multiple errors in my "duinstall" log file listing most of my products not supporting the upgrade from version 10.0.1579. I notice in the 2013 upgrade info that it only supports upgrades from GP 10.00.1779. I assume that is the reason why it won't continue with the upgrade? My question is if anyone knows if I HAVE to run the 1779 service pack on my GP 10.0 databases or if I can just bypass that routine and just run the SQL scripts to change the db_verBuild and db_verOldBuild values to 1579? As far as I recall the 1779 version is just related to payroll updates and we don't use payroll in GP. If I can't run the script I would love to know other steps I can perform to help me proceed. I don't want to have to run the service pack on my 10.0 install due to the fact I have 30 company databases and it will take forever to upgrade them and transfer the db's back to my test 2013 upgrade server.
