Getting error as part of trying to upgrade Service Fabric Application using Start-ServiceFabricApplicationUpgrade

We got a Service Fabric cluster in our development environment using 2 VMs. I was trying to upgrade the Application deployed in SF using the following command:

Start-ServiceFabricApplicationUpgrade -ApplicationName "fabric:/ApplicationName" -ApplicationTypeVersion "3.7.2625.0" -UnMonitoredAuto

I get the following error as a result:

Start-ServiceFabricApplicationUpgrade : Application type and version not found At line:1 char:1 + Start-ServiceFabricApplicationUpgrade -ApplicationName "fabric:/ApplicationName" ... + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (Microsoft.Servi...usterConnection:ClusterConnection) [Start-ServiceFabricApplicationUpgrade], FabricElementNotFoundException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : UpgradeApplicationErrorId,Microsoft.ServiceFabric.Powershell.StartApplicationUpgrade

I would like to know whether there are any configurations I need to change at the ClusterConfiguration level. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

There are 3 simple steps to upgrade an application:

1. Copy-ServiceFabricApplicationPackage

2. Register-ServiceFabricApplicationType

3. Start-ServiceFabricApplicationUpgrade

By the message you posted, the error is likely because you missed the step 2.

If you have executed the step 1, 2 and 3, certify that:

• The application package has been registered correctly
• The application version you registered is correct, both match, the package and the Upgrade command
• The existing application and the registered one are from same type
