Big Trouble while publishing extensions in VS Code on BC13 Migrated Database from NAV 2017

Hi everybody,
I'm Raymond and we faced with issues after data upgrade from NAV 2017. My migrated DB on Business Central 13 works (I can access NAV Client and Web Client), but I can't publish a new AL extension.
VS Code gives this error: "Could not publish the package to the server. See Visual Studio Code debug console for more details.", and I've noticed that it cannot download symbols. I've tried to restart BC Server Instance, but it does not change.

With a new BC Demo Database, I have no problems on the same Server Instance.

Anyone with a suggestion?
Thank you in advance

    It looks like you didn't deploy the system and the application packages. Can you check the NavApp table in the SQL management studio and tell me which records do you see there?

    Hi ArturV,

    yes, DeveloperServicesEnabled is correctly set. This is VS Code message:

    [2020-06-11 16:10:51.79] Sending request to localhost:7049/.../packages

    [2020-06-11 16:10:51.79] Sending request to localhost:7049/.../packages

    [2020-06-11 16:10:51.81] The request for path /BC130/dev/packages?publisher=Microsoft&appName=System&versionText=13.0.0.0 failed with code NotFound. Reason: No published package matches the provided arguments.

    [2020-06-11 16:10:51.82] The request for path /BC130/dev/packages?publisher=Microsoft&appName=Application&versionText=13.0.0.0 failed with code NotFound. Reason: No published package matches the provided arguments.

    [2020-06-11 16:10:51.82] Could not download reference symbols. Please ensure that:

    1. The correct server name and instance are specified in the launch.json file.

    2. The correct application version is specified in the app.json file.

    3. The dependencies are correctly specified in the app.json file.

    When I connect a Demo Database 13-0 to the same BC Server Instance, everything works....

    Hello Raymond,

    Can you please send the exact error messages you see in the console?

    In the meanwhile, check that you have an option DeveloperServicesEnabled enabled in your NST setting. Read more about this option here: docs.microsoft.com/.../configure-server-instance
