GP 2015 R2 Install database issue

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

Hello All,

I am in the process of upgrading from GP 2010 to GP 2012 R2. I installed the program and had almost everything running. However, when I did the install I forgot to install Human Resources and Payroll a product we have licensed. Now I am getting an erro attempting to configure older version for 4 products. 1911, 4522, 4933 and 4955.  Is there an easy fix? or do I need to bring back in the old databases and convert? I found a company script file, but it is only for versions 2013 and before. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    I ended up with creating a technical support request. They renamed my old directory and did a repair. I also found that I needed to install Human Resources module. So everything, in this case, is working for now

    I will look into it. Sounds like it might work for me. I have 4 product id's where I am having problems.

    Maybe take a look at the responses in the following thread.  That might point you in the right direction.

    Yes I am. Let me backtrack a little. I did an install, got great plains up and running. Was getting an error about a missing .dic file. I realized that I did not install Human Resources and Payroll Suite.  I did that this morning and now I am getting the errors when attempting to run GP utilities. I have a full copy of the client before I did any changes, I also backed up the sql databases. I am hoping to find a way to fix this without restoring old copies of the GP 2010 database as I added users for Web Client. Is there a way to export users? Thanks

    It almost seems like you already upgraded them since the db_verMajor is at 14 which is GP 2015.  Are you running the utilities on the original box you ran the upgrade on?

    That is the exact message I am getting.  I ran a sql query on one of the bad modules

    Can you give a little more info on the exact error message you are getting?  Has the upgrade process run at all or are you getting the "Failed to obtain product version information" shortly after logging in to Utilities?

    I tried that and no luck. Should I remove, reboot and try to reinstall?

    Actually, you can also add them from the Modify area in Add/Remove programs.  It's the Human Resources and Payroll Suite.

    I think you need to install those from the install media.  It's the HR & Payroll Suite if I remember correctly.
