Hi,

I am migrating a board 10 datamodel to a board 12 datamodel on a new server with an on-premise installation, I successfuly copied the database file to the board 12 database folder, I restarted the server, but when trying to upgrade the datamodel I get the following error " Insufficient privileges to manage this database "


Upon checking the diagnostics file I found this log line as well :
Administrator dbaa59c7-f0fe-4dbf-b6f8-75ba4815f118 DTB_OpenByName Inviflam {"ErrorCode":"DatabaseAccessDenied"

Note : I have an admin license with the full rights on my server

How can I solve this issue please ?

Best regards,

    Hi Anis,

    How are you doing? I hope you are having a great day!
    Please, check the Database Security Profile Name.

    Is the new Board 12 installation's Administrator or Developer Security Profile assigned with the proper Database Security Profile Name?

  • Hi @Anis Abed,

    make sure you extracted and cleared all cubes before migrating your data model from B10 to B12

  • Hi Anis,

    It most likely looks like Database Security Issue.

    Did you change any Database security recently.If yes, trying restoring backup with proper security.

    Also, Did you extract all the cubes on B10?

    Thanks,

    Neha

    Hi All,

    Thanks for your answers, fortunately I was able to resolve the issue, indeed it was the default database security profile parameter that was missing, I had to type "ADMIN" to gain access to the database.

    Thanks you very much,

    Anis
