9.2 upgrade running TC’s and getting error on F98950 conversion

 

The first conversion is always the hardest to get going.

I’ve done this 100 times before, perhaps add another 0

I’m running all TC’s locally, because there are hardly any proper ones in the 9.2 upgrade (from 9.1).  I’m also avoiding the production AS/400.

I’m getting the old System – 910 password entry dialog, and I have the following in the logs: (jde.log)

ODB0000164 - DBC:00 [28000][8002][1]

Okay, so on a hunch I start looking around and have seen https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocContentDisplay?_afrLoop=193155969433737&id=653867.1&_afrWindowMode=0&_adf.ctrl-state=171cvx1f3w_201 which looks really similar, they suggest whacking your current user (in my case JDEUPG) into the [DSPWD] section of the JDE.INI

So I do this (I’m AS/400 and not using security server), and all of my problems go away!

Nice little fix to what could have been a big problem.
