Error running Upgrade from unmodified v14.3 to v17.0

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 25

Hi,

I'm trying to do a trial upgrade of a v14.3 on premise database to v17.0 on premise, but getting an error message when performing the technical upgrade of the database. The error occurs when using the Invoke-NAVApplicationDatabaseConversion cmdlet. It returns the following error...

WARNING: UnhandledErrorMessage

Invoke-NAVApplicationDatabaseConversion : Method not found: 'Int64 System.GC.GetAllocatedBytesForCurrentThread()'. At line:1 char:1

...

+ CategoryInfo : Not Specified: (:) [Invoke-NAVApplicationDatabaseCnversion], MissingMethodException

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.MissingMethodException, Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Management.Cmdlets.InvokeNAVApplicationDatabaseConversion

 

The source database is a completely unmodified v14.3 and all extensions have been uninstalled as per the Microsoft upgrade process documentation (Upgrading Unmodified C/AL Application to Version 17 - Business Central | Microsoft Docs)

Has anybody seen this before, and have any ideas what needs to be done to resolve the problem?

TIA

Neil

    Have sorted this... there was an error in the .NET 2.8 install. A reinstall of that and further reboot of the server solved the problem.
