Hi guys, 

Yesterday we attempted to upgrade our VBR server from V12.3.2.4465 to V13.0.2.29 but were met with the below error during the installation process - 

 


The upgrade failed and did not allow us to retry at all. Certain options were greyed out -

 


Checking Apps and Features, Veeam reported that it was upgraded but the app was inaccessible. - 
 


 
In the end, we were forced to back out of out upgrade.

Has anyone seen this before? 

ShaunB.

Hi ​@ShaunB - Welcome to the Community!

From the looks of the error - “VmaNetExtensionCaller”, it would appear (maybe?) you have outdated or incompatible version of .NET? Installation & upgrade logs are located: %ProgramData%\Veeam\Setup\Temp. Have you looked at the Log here to see what it tells you? Here lists the requirments for Windows:

https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbr/userguide/system_requirements_backup_server.html?ver=13#windows-based-backup-server

Aside from those things, unless someone else has suggestions, I advise reaching out to Veeam Support to get you sorted.

According to the KB page with upgrade paths your good there - https://www.veeam.com/kb2053

I would suggest checking the requirements as per Shane then open a ticket otherwise.
