When I try to upgrade from ver. 4.11.4 to ver. 6. My content dashboard wont load.
The error message is something like:
Additional information: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
Which as far as I know is related to MSSQL? Does ver. 6 have issues being installed on a MySQL database?
Does the frontend of the website display? Or do you see the same error? I've seen this error message when trying to access my local environment when being on a VPN for instance.
Hmm... I don't really know... cause I just tried to test it and the DB upgrade crashed:
The database configuration failed with the following message: Unknown column 'masterContentType' in 'field list' Please check log file for addtional information (can be found in '/App_Data/Logs/UmbracoTraceLog.txt')
MSSQL Error on content dashboard - with MySQL database?

Both website and DB server is on localhost
...Hmm and you're not connected to any kind of VPN?
No I'm not connected to a vpn. but when a saw the first error it was on a virtual machine. But nothing at this point
Have you tried rebooting afterwards? Sometimes I've had to do that after disconnecting from a VPN connection in order to access anything local again.
Hope this helps.
