Additional Information

The SUPPORTINGSUBNETWORKNAME field applied to all applicable domain classes has properties that do not match those expected by the system (on creating a Utility Network or upgrading a dataset). When the SUPPORTINGSUBNETWORKNAME field is created, isRequired must be -1 which means True, and isEditable must be 0, which means False. In this data, isRequired is 0 and isEditable is -1, which caused the failure. The SUPPORTINGSUBNETWORKNAME field is not created until Utility Network Version 5. Removing these fields from the various classes allows the upgrade to be run successfully from Utility Network Version 4 to Version 5, or 6 (which then re-adds the fields in a supported manner).

Workaround

  1. Take a full database backup as a safety net.
  2. Export Asset Package (with data included).
  3. Delete all data from the database.
  4. Stage Utility Network.
  5. Apply the asset package created in Step 2.
