Re: ARS v7.0.1P2 upgrade to ARS v7.5 P4 Failure

2010-03-04 Thread Rodriguez, Rafael J x23718
Susan we had the same issue when we upgraded from ARS 7.0.1P6 to 7.5 P2. The issue is with the control table not being upgraded properly. You MUST upgrade to 7.0.1P7 first, this will fix the control table and allow the 7.5 upgrade. This was a bug that was fixed in patch7 of the 7.0.1 version.
