You run the upgrade scenario to Dynamics SL 2018 and it is unsuccessful. You check the dbbuild.log and notice messages similar to the following:


Database Name: <DB NAME>
Error Code: -2
Error Text: Execution Timeout Expired.  The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding
.

To resolve this error, follow these steps:

1. Browse the Dynamics SL program files directory to …SL\Applications\Db
2. Open the DBBuild.ini file using Notepad
3. Modify the [Settings] section to resemble the following:
ConnectTimeout=3600
StatementTimeout=3600

4. Then, run the upgrade scenario again.


Note: You do not have the restore the previous version database before doing step 4.
