Error: Cannot transfer an MS Shipped object when consolidate PWA databases

I've tried to upgrade my project server 2010 to 2013. But when I consolidate the databases, I always get error message: Cannot transfer an MS Shipped object.

Here is my command: PS C:\Users\gita_p> Convertto-SPProjectDatabase -WebApplication -Db server bedugul -ArchiveDbname ProjectServer_Archive_New_2013 -DraftDbname Projec tServer_Draft_New_2013 -PublishedDbname ProjectServer_Published_new_2013 -Report ingDbname ProjectServer_Reporting_New_2013 -ProjectServiceDbname ProjectServer_S erviceDB_2013 WARNING: Converting the reporting, published, archive, and draft databases into a single Project Database will make it so they can no longer be attached to Project Server 2010. Before continuing make sure you have a backup copy of these databases.

Confirm Are you sure you want to perform this action? Performing the operation "ConvertTo-SPProjectDatabase" on target "ProjectServer_ServiceDB_2013". [Y] Yes [A] Yes to All [N] No [L] No to All [S] Suspend [?] Help (default is "Y"):

Christoph Mülder On BEST ANSWER

the question is a bit older, but as it seems to be the only documented occurence of this error I try to answer it here in case someone else might get this problem. The reason is probably that there exists a table "dtproperties" in the system tables of at least one of the 4 Project Server 2010 databases. This is treated unproperly by the upgrade procedure. The table is related to database diagrams and not needed. Just delete this table and it will work. To be on the safe side, delete the table only from the copied databases that you use for the migration. Kind regards Christoph Muelder
