Posted on by Jerome Cader 60

Trying an upgrade from BC Cronus v14 CU18 with a 2 custom tables to BC v19.4 on premise,

using the following guide docs.microsoft.com/.../upgrade-to-microsoft-base-app-v19

On Task 14: Task 14: Synchronize final extensions

Sync-NAVApp -ServerInstance BC19CronusAllObj -Name "bc14baseapptablesonly" -Version 1.1.0.0

gives the error

Sync-NAVApp : Changes to the tenant database could not be applied. Affected tables will not be available.
The first error was:
Cannot delete the O365 Device Setup Instructions table from the Demo Test5 Database NAV (14-0) database because it contains data
for the company.
Retry the operation when the problem has been resolved.

when trying to force the sync

Sync-NAVApp -ServerInstance BC19CronusAllObj -Name "bc14baseapptablesonly" -Version 1.1.0.0 -Mode ForceSync -Force

gets the error :

Sync-NAVApp : The following SQL error occurred after the SQL command was canceled:
Either the parameter @objname is ambiguous or the claimed @objtype (OBJECT) is wrong.
Error: The input parameter 'OldName' is not allowed to be null.

    Hi Creppz,

    Did this solve your issue ? What should be updated in the app.json ?

    Thanks.

    Hello,

    Best probably is to raise this issue to Microsoft.

    Thank you.
