SalesLogix 7.0 Data Conversion ErrorYour last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hi guys

I'm trying to run the upgrade routine on a 6.2.2 database. After entering version etc details and selecting the SLX database to be upgraded, I get the following error message appearing:

Error attempting to determine database version. Please check the connection string.

Does anyone know what this might mean? I've checked the DBVersion field in SYSTEMINFO and it's 6.2.

Cheers.

--Edit--
As I had a blank ADMIN password, I did not check the 'Allow Saving Password' box. But (and after reading the instructions again) it ran fine when I did this.

Phil,
Not to bring out the "ape" in you, but that version 7 conversion routine is very tricky. I too had similiar problems. The answer seems to be that the 6.2 database:
* Must be on a 6.2 server
* That server cannot be a virtual server - it must be an actual physical box
* The lower level ('sysdba') connection must be a version 6.2 definition
* Version 6.2's SlxServer must be running.

Robert, agree it's tricky - but definitely not a requirement to have it on a physical box - I do test upgrades in VM all the time.
