We found out that we had to do it from a terminal. It Worked!!!!

Thank you!
Hi, is there anyone out there on this fine Saturday morning, that could help
us with a problem we are having doing the schema change for patch 4.00.904?
We installed the patch, restarted the database, and then click on the schema
change, and we get the Choose application to open window. We are waiting
for technical help from Epicor, but thought we would try egroups, in the
meantime.

Thanks,

Did you do exactly like step 9 of the installation guide suggested?

9. Schema changes need to be applied to your database and the database
server needs to be started prior to running the schema changes. Right click
on the start button and select Explore. In the Explorer locate your server
and go into the Epicor folder. From the Epicor folder select Vantage.
Within the Vantage folder locate the Schema Change.vtg file. Double-click
this file.

Another screen will display stating that the programs are at 4.00.904 and
the database is 4.00.xxx. In the password field enter changeschema and
click Continue. This process will tie up your computer while the changes
are applied. Running the schema change should be less than 5 minutes but
could finish in a few seconds. When finished you should receive a message
that says 0 errors. Click OK and exit Explorer. Your schema changes have
now been applied.


That was all I did and it worked fine.

I forgot to ask are you trying to do this at the server or at a terminal?

Not sure exactly what you mean by "Choose application." Is that where
Windows doesn't know what to do with a file type? It comes up "open with"
my PC, but I think it's different in various windoze versions.

If that's the case... you've got bad information in the shortcut, or your
PC doesn't know what to do with a .VTG file. Are you running it from the
server, or a regular machine? Assuming you're on a PC with the 4.0 client
stuff previously installed, try going to the Vantage drive letter; find
the "schema change.vtg" (or whatever - that's close) and run it.

We are doing it from the server. We followed #9 instructions, we are
now getting the error "Startup file not found".
I believe you're supposed to do it from a terminal. bye going through the
mapped drive and finding the file.
