SL 2015 upgrade from 7

Posted on by 4,757

I am in the testing phase of a 2015 upgrade for a customer using SL Access rather than AD access.

After the update scenario is run, none of the existing users can login. I get one of those CLR20r3 errors. When I delete all the passwords, all logins work.

Has anyone else seen this. I'd like to avoid deploying with no passwords if possible.

    I talked with our env team.

    They are finding that you pretty much always have to reset the passwords.  This appears to possibly occur because a different encryption is used in the different versions.

    We wrote bug 34667 for this issue.  It looks to be corrected in the next release.  Notes says this.

    When a SL 7x database set for SQL authentication with existing user passwords is upgraded to SL2015, the users cannot get into SL. In the Login screen they can enter their SL User ID do a PV and select a company and then enter a password. Click OK and get: Microsoft Dynamics SL has stopped working.

    The  workaround we have is this.

    Clear  the existing user passwords:

    Run this against the SL system database:

    Update userrec set password=''

    The users can then log in with blank password and go to the Tools menu and set their passwords
    or  the Sysadmin can go into User Maintenance and set the user passwords.

    Well thanks for your comments, the only thing that works is to delete the passwords and reset them using the Set Password screen or the User Maint screen.

    Go into the Database Maintenance utility and check the Authentication type.  And you may also want to run the Synchronize All Ownership & Security.

    Well, the system is using the same old SL Authentication. It's just that the passwords don't seem to survive the upgrade. I even had to reset the SYSADMIN pw to get into it.

    I believe you are using Window Authentication mode now, so you are not deploying without passwords.  If the domain account is disabled, their access to SL should be terminated as well.
