Prerequisites fail when upgrading from 10.4.0 to 10.5.0 CU3, 10.5.6, or 10.5.7

Affected versions

Upgrade path from DataMiner 10.4.0 to 10.5.0 CU3, 10.5.6, or 10.5.7

Cause

Some prerequisite checks included in the upgrade to 10.5.0 [CU3], 10.5.6, and 10.5.7 rely on a version of the System.Text.Json library that is not present in 10.4.0. This causes specific prerequisites to fail during the upgrade process.

In addition, although the VerifyNATSMigrationPrerequisites.dll check was reverted in code in 10.5.0 [CU3], the corresponding file still remains in the installation packages, which may result in the check being executed anyway. In DataMiner 10.5.6/10.5.7 installation packages, this file has been removed.

Fix

No fix is available yet.

Workaround

  1. Upgrade from DataMiner 10.4.0 to any of the following versions first:

    • 10.5.0 [CU0]

    • 10.5.0 [CU1]

    • 10.5.0 [CU2]

  2. Proceed with the upgrade to DataMiner 10.5.0 CU3, 10.5.6, or 10.5.7.

Description

When upgrading directly from DataMiner 10.4.0 to 10.5.0 CU3, 10.5.6, or 10.5.7, the upgrade process fails, with the following lines in the logging:
