Overview

This article describes the issue and its resolution, which occurs when upgrading the schema of an old Firebird based Archive Store and the schema upgrade fails with the exact logging as shown below (versions, steps and error are all important here).

Note: Not all Firebird Archive Stores are affected. If an Archive Store was created with MailArchiver 6.4 build 20100702 the issue seems not to occur, but if an Archive Store was created with MailArchiver 4 build 20070616 the issue does occur. Therefore the issue occurs only with Firebird databases which were created with versions between 4 and (max.) 6.3.
