I am trying to test the latest build, but there are troubles when it try to convert my test db. The db is version 6.3.4.0->6.8.0.0. I get the following error:

"ContextSwitchDeadlock was detected"

anyone else with this problem? Solutions? Thoughts?

No. That's a new one for me. I'm going to guess the problem is with 6.8 rather than 6.7 or earlier, because we have so many users already on 6.7 with no complaints.

Never mind...if i just hit continue it eventually converted.

Oh, maybe I have seen that. If running it in debug, Visual Studio thinks it's been waiting too long.

Hi,
I tried to convert database from 6.7 to 6.8 but it gave me error Filed 'NewerDays' doesn't have a default value. Conversion unsuccessful.
Any idea? whats the problem?

Thanks

That's an easy one

I would be interested in having you post your existing ini file so that we can see and test it. It should be possible for us to add a meaningful error message instead of having it crash like that. But we would need to see the ini file in order to do so. Thank you.

Thanks for immediate response. I emailed you my ini file.

Thank you. We made a few changes, and in the future nobody else should run into this problem.
