NAV 2018 Problem converting from CU01 to CU04

Hi all, anyone knows how to fix this issue when converting database from version CU01 to CU04 ?

Maybe it is because of the addition of a new field property "Dataclassification" on CU03

It looks like NAV tries to start the data conversion but fails because there is a property that keeps track if a database may be converted or not. I'm not familiar with this functionality.

Maybe you need more rights on the master database.

If the database is on Azure SQL Database, add your user account to the dbmanager database role on the master database.

This membership is only required for converting the database, and can be removed afterwards.

You could also try to do the upgrade from powershell. Hopefully this would return a more detailed error.

Btw, I'm not sure if a database conversion from one CU to another CU is comparable with converting from one NAV platform to another. Just a thought.

Check in SSMS if you have change tracking enabled on the database.

You don’t by any chance have a product called “Object Manger Advanced” installed? I’ve not used it myself but stopping a database from being accidentally upgraded sounds like something they might have implemented and the error message does explicitly mention “OBJECT MANAGER”
