SQL Monitor 14 update failure

in Redgate Monitor
Hi, I have backed up my database and have ran through the SQL Monitor 14 upgrade process. On completion I try and access the dashboard but receive a dialog box with the following  messages,

Unable to upgrade the Data Repository schema

There is already an object named 'MonitoredEntities' in the database

Then a few boxes to enter my credentials and Retry the Upgrade.

Again this fails

    Hi @easby,

    We'll need to get the log files and have a look at what is going on.  I will reach out to you via a support ticket to get that and some further information and then will update here once we have a resolution.

    Kind regards,

    Hi all,


    After working with @easby in a ticket, the issue is that an old view from v10 remained in the repository that had the same name as a new table being introduced.  Running this before updating (or on the repository database after updating and getting the error above) should allow the schema upgrade to continue:

    DROP VIEW [settings].[MonitoredEntities]
    Kind regards,

    Will a revised setup installer be released to check (and potentially solve) this issue during installation?

    Hi @ThomasBE,

    The view should already have been dropped in Seq284-Seq285 (around v10.0.8-v10.0.13) and this won't affect anyone that started on a version later than 10.0.13. 

    The schema upgrade that included the T-SQL to drop the VIEW shows that it has run so either the view was recreated manually afterwards, or there was a modification of the entries in the data repository to cause it to skip the schema step that dropped it to think it was run when it was not.  

    Kind regards,
