Upload extension to next minor version failed - why?

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4
Hi folks, 
 
I am encountering a very weird issue while uploading and scheduling a customized extension (new version: 1.0.0.38) in our production environment for the next minor update: the upload failed and the error message is /Deploy Operation rejected. Error: The application extension with app id 'xxx' cannot be staged for future deployment because there is no existing deployed version to upgrade from./ 
 
This is weird because a previous version (which is 1.0,0.37) of the extension has been successfully installed in our business central tenant. When we set the version number of the .app package back to 1.0.0.37 and tried to schedule this version to the next minor update, we have got another error message stating: An extension with app Id 'xxx' and version at least '1.0.0.37' is already installed on this environment
 
The newer version of the extension 1.0.0.38 contains the newest symbols of the next minor version (which we have downloaded from our test environment that has been updated recently to the newest minor version 22.3).
 
The production environment is currently at 22.2 and should be upgraded to 22.3 soon. 
 
I have also inquired our business central partners but unfortunately, they couldn't help us with this issue. 
 
Could someone please give me a hint why the scheduling fails? (without deleting the extension manually shortly before the next scheduled update window).
 
Thanks!!

    Hi Deman:
     
    when you say you replaced your current app with a higher version, what do you mean?
     
    I have a version 22.0.3.0 installed. I'm trying to install 22.3.3.3. Going from BC 22.2 to 22.3. I get the exact same thing. the app id they say isn't deployed is in fact deployed.
     
    Thx.

    Hi ZHU,  
     
    thanks a lot for your quick response. 
     
    I have solved this issue by replacing our current app with a higher version. Then the scheduling works with the app that contains changes for the next minor release. 
    So the installation of our app with version 1.0.0.37 seems to be somehow faulty, just like you have suggested. 
     
    And I appreciated your advice by testing it out with a sandbox. :)   
     
    Btw, I have been reading your blog posts and they have helped me a lot to get first technical insights regarding business central. 
    Thanks a lot for your contribution and willingness to share your knowledge! 
     
    Best regards, 
    Deman

    This is kind of weird, did the app id change?
    You can copy the production environment and test it in Sandbox to see if there is any problem with the current version installation.
    And if this issue has not been resolved, it is recommended to submit a Service Request to Microsoft for their assistance in investigating.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.
