Question:
Why am I getting an Appcrash with dsminfoa.dll when upgrading my MDB ?
Environment:
CA Client Automation - All Versions
Answer:
This problem is caused by a missing entry in the ca_settings table.
The version of the mdb is listed in the ca_settings table in the set_id column under the 903 record (which is missing from this table).

To resolve the issue do a DSMver to find out what version of DSM you are at now:

Then use that version to create the ca_settings record :
Now if you look at the ca_settings table, it will list the ca_settings 903 record:

A similar issue, is when doing an upgrade you get Appcrash msvcr100.dll:

This is caused by the ca_settings, record 903 has a value that is not a correct version

To resolve this change the incorrect version to a "real version" (again, check DSMVER)
