    Hi all,

    I found a solution to my particular 'hue' of this problem.

    You can read about it at:

    Best regards,

    Ian.

    I am also getting this error on GP V10 after I install SP5. I run utilities to update the company databases...all companies update bar one. I get the same message as above.

    Any ideas?

    Hi there,

    Did you try to run the Dynamics Utilities with Run as Administrator?

    Hi Richard

    Thanks for the response.

     I am upgrading from V9.0 to V10.0.

    Agreed. dbo.GPS_CHAR is required and should not be dropped but two of my companies are giving me this error during my upgrade. Here is an extract of my DEXSQL.log file


    /*  Date: 12/19/2009  Time: 10:48:35
    stmt(18469120):*/
     if exists (select * from sysobjects where id = object_id('dbo.GPS_CHAR') and sysstat & 0xf = 6)  drop default dbo.GPS_CHAR  
    /*
    /*  Date: 12/19/2009  Time: 10:48:35
    SQLSTATE:(37000) Native Err:(3716) stmt(18469120):*/
    [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]The default 'dbo.GPS_CHAR' cannot be dropped because it is bound to one or more column.*/

     Any ideas ?

    Regards,

    The default dbo.GPS_CHAR cannot be dropped because it is bound to every character field in the database.  It ensures that the fields are blank filled.  This is a normal default and should not interfere with upgrades.

    thank u for quick reply to my mail. what i did is to go back to 7.5 and try to upgrade to 9 before receiving your mail. migrating to 7.5 was successful but when i installed the version 9 and trying to run the dynamics utilities the error occur in trying to load post conversion objects as below: The following SQL statement produced an error. if exists (select*from sysobjects where id=object_id('dbo.GPS_CHAR') and sysstat & oxf=6 drop default db0.GPS_CHAR.when i click ok it display (error [Microsoft][odbc sql server driver. the default 'db0.GPS_CHAR' cannot be dropped because it is bound to one or more column. the next time i re run the Dynamics utilities it brought another error. The following SQL statement produced an error delete from DU000010 where PRODID=258 when loading Additional Required Data. Duinstall.log: C:\ Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics\GP\SQL\Install\258\System\Data\Preload.sys

    Have you tried enabling a DEXSQL.LOG before running Utilities? This will typically allow you to see the exact error in reference to synchronizetabledata. Also, have you checked that DYNSA is the owner of all your GP company databases and more so the Dynamics database?

    Can you also post the output for the following T-SQL query?

    use DYNAMICS;
    SELECT * FROM DU000010
