Re: "Database upgrade failed" when trying to upgrade SQL Server CE DB to SS Compact Edition DB

Have a look to the log file (upgrade.log),
You can find it in the same directory where upgrade.exe is located.
You may find a more readable error message

Hi,

I am trying to upgrade a very small SS CE DB to SS a Compact Edition DB
using the following command on my pocket PC:

upgrade.exe /s "test.sdf" /d "testbk.sdf"

I use the upgrade tool copied from "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server
Compact Edition\v3.1\SDK\bin\wce400\armv4\upgrade.exe" directory and the
command line tool from "Windows Mobile Developer Power
Toys\PPC_Command_Shell".

However, I got the following error:
"Database upgrade failed".

I put upgrade.exe, cmd.exe and database file in same directory.

Is there anything wrong?

Thanks for any hints and suggestion.

GD
