2010 to 2013 Migration - So Close

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

So close to finishing my 2013 migration but getting hung up when I launch GP after running GP utilities. I receive the error: "An error has occurred while loading or initializing an addin. Ask your administrator to check the Windows event log for more details. Dynamics will now close.

From the event log:

The description for Event ID 0 from source Microsoft Dexterity cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

The following information was included with the event:

An exception occurred while trying to load or initialize the addin located at HRDocAttach.

Exception Details:

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Dynamics.GP.HRDocAttach, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.

To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.

Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.

To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

the message resource is present but the message is not found in the string/message table

If I go look in the GP folder, there are no HR or Doc attach dlls. If I go to the GP install, do add/change components, and add in the two HR modules there, then run GP Utilities, I receive the following message:

I previously received help on this forum where I was having an issue even starting the upgrade. It involved removing an old HR version from the databases. I've done test migrations last year (dropping the tables from that link) and everything worked fine. Not sure what changed now.

    Dropped the tables/modules from the HR stuff but I think it was just a problem with how they were reinstalled. Like I said, got past this issue after starting from scratch.This issue can be closed. Thanks for checking in through Jonathan, I believe I'll be reaching out again shortly as I'm ticking off the small remaining issues with my migration. Thanks!

    Well it looks like you didn't upgrade all the modules that were back on GP 10. So really we need to know which issue you want to fix. If the DLL is not there and the module is not installed I guess I don't understand how that error would be happening.

    Should have included that with my original message, I reinstalled that component several times to no avail. Ended up having to rebuild the machine from scratch to get past the above error.

    Try to re-install Dexterity Shared Component and run GP utilities.

    Hope this helps!!!
