Import-NAVData Error : Cannot Import because the file does not include microsoft extensions

Posted on by Sebastian Deharbe

Hi to everyone!
These days I was trying to import a company (or a set of companies using -AllCompanies option) from a production enviroment to test enviroment on different servers (production in azure, test in local server) with the cmdlet Import-NAVData but this ps command fails with the following error for microsoft extensions:
Import-NAVData : Cannot import the data because the specified file does not include the extension: name= [....], publisher=Microsoft, version=14.18.45015.0

* Both servers (where export navdata and where import navdata) have the same version of Business Central (14.18.45015.0 W1) and the same version of the database.
* When Export-NAVData, I try include and not include options (and the possible combinations of these): -IncludeApplicationData -IncludeApplication -IncludeGlobalData.

In this screenshot you can see the error (I crossed out the name of company (with paint ) because it is confidential information) :

Can anyone help me with this issue?
Thanks.

Hi NorthW

In configuration and installed apps, both environments are the same and the error apps were installed by default in the bc installation (in test environment, the installation is new).

The only difference I suspect is the version of sql. In the production enviroment (on azure) i cannot get the version of sqlserver being used.

Thanks for reply :)

Hi yzhums

Thanks for reply.

I think there should be no problem in the database schema. In configuration and installed apps, both environments are the same and the error apps were installed by default in the bc installation (in test environment, the installation is new).

It looks like you do not have the same extensions installed in both your environments. And that needs to be exactly the same from the environment you copy from to the destination environment.

Hi, As far as I know, both databases need to have the same schem, and the same extensions must be installed.

Hope the link below can give you some hints.
