Dear,
 
 
I am trying to upgrade GP8 SPa to GP9. After running utilities it successfully upgraded Dynamics but while its going to upgrade the company and at the step of "Convert Company Data" it suddenly stops. the attached is the installation log file. and on SQL Profiler the last statement was 
 
eclare @cStatement varchar(255) declare T_cursor CURSOR for select 'alter table IV10403 drop constraint ' +  name from sysindexes where name like 'PK%IV10403' set nocount on OPEN T_cursor FETCH NEXT FROM T_cursor INTO @cStatement WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS <> -1) begin EXEC (@cStatement) FETCH NEXT FROM T_cursor INTO @cStatement end DEALLOCATE T_cursor 
 
 
I also tried with GP8 SP5 but didn't worked. and on SQL Profiler the last statement was 
 
eclare @cStatement varchar(255) declare T_cursor CURSOR for select 'alter table GL40000 drop constraint ' + name from sysindexes where name like 'PK%GL40000' set nocount on OPEN T_cursor FETCH NEXT FROM T_cursor INTO @cStatement WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS <> -1) begin EXEC (@cStatement) FETCH NEXT FROM T_cursor INTO @cStatement end DEALLOCATE T_cursor 


 
 
Best Regards

    You will want to remove the product from the Dynutils.set file.

    With it gone, utilites will not try and upgrade the product.

    (However, if you are actually using HR - then you have a small problem).

    Look in the DB_Upgrade table on the DYNAMICS database - this lists every product by company database and what version its at.

    It seems that there was a failed upgrade attempt of the Human Resources module back on version 7.50 to version 8.0.  It is also possible that HR was installed on 7.5 but when running the GP 8.0 upgrade the individual did not include HR in the upgrade path.  If the upgrade module is not being used you can remove the selection from the client installation or references in the Dynamics.set.   Also, you may want to consider upgrading from GP 8.0 SP5 to GP10, if your goal is to get to a newer version.  This is a direct upgrade path.
