When you perform an upgrade-in-place on a system that contains SAS Anti-Money Laundering 6.3, the upgrade does not work properly because the SAS Anti-Money Laundering release number is the same as the release number for the upgrading release.

When this problem occurs, there is no definitive list of symptoms that can occur. However, you might experience an error or warnings similar to the following:

• You might receive the following error message:
  
  Left Shift operator not allowed on null object
• The upgrade-in-place might run to completion, but you might receive a warning that states that you are attempting either to run a SAS job that does not exist or to create a table in the database that already exists.

This problem occurs when you upgrade some other SAS product and SAS Anti-Money Laundering is included in the upgrade and when the following property is set to true:

This property is set so that customers who are updating from SAS Anti-Money Laundering 6.1 or 6.2 can update their systems. This setting causes the upgrade target to be called even when there is nothing to upgrade.

To work around this issue, perform the following steps after the installation phase in the SAS^® Deployment Wizard but before the update configuration phase:

1. Navigate to the SASHOME/SASDeploymentManager/9.4/product_data directory and open the following files:
   
   • antimnycmnc__94130__prt__xx__sp0__1/configure/antimnycmnc_default.properties
   • antimnylndin__94130__prt__xx__sp0__1/configure/antimnylndin_default.properties
2. In those files, locate the following properties and change their values to false:
   
   antimnycmnc.updateConfigure.target.is_called=true antimnylndin.updateConfigure.target.is_called=true
