Non-negative number required

Melvin Xuereb — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 08:06:52 GMT

I've created a method in C# which is using the DatabaseMigrator class to update a database from a StrataFrame generated package.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is a code snippet:

try

{

DatabaseMigrator _dbMigrator = null;
_dbMigrator = InitializeDatabaseMigrator(new Isync(), _dbMigrator);
DatabaseTargetName dbToUpdate = new DatabaseTargetName("XXXX");
dbToUpdate.NameOnServer = "YYYY";
_dbMigrator.DeployMetaData("C:\Packages\Database.pkg","", new DatabaseTargetName[] { dbToUpdate });

}

catch(Exception ex)

{

throw ex;

}

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've debugged the method and in the last line, when the DeployMetaData method is begin called, an exception is being given with the following message:

Exception Message: Non-negative number required.

Parameter name: value

Can you please help and suggest why this is exception is being thrown?

Hi Melvin.

Can you post the stack trace?
Also, have you tried deploying this same package using the DDT and then having a look where it breaks and what the log file says?
My first guess without any more information would be a change made to a table that is part of a Data Deployment Package.
