Hi I try to upgrade from 6.0 to 12.0. During the upgrade, the following error occurs.

Compared with normal DATABASE, I made ​​sure that the users & groups - dbo is in uppercase. Probably think this is the cause, I wonder if there is a way to fix this.

Resolved in version 6.0, if the DB rebuild, which takes too much time. Is there any other workaround?

thanks

I have experienced wierd messages during in-place upgrades. They were always caused by previous errors I had made which seemed to be functioning just fine in the old db (such as creating an index without an object name: worked fine in ASA 10 but not in 11).

I discovered the "real" problem by creating an script file with dbunload and then searching for the offending term (public or dbo in your case). Once I discovered the underlying error, I 1) fixed it in the original db and repeated the in-place upgrade, or 2) edited the unload script file and then executed it manually.
