I recently install a new instance of Dynamics NAV 2016 and copied the database from the old server to the new server. The servers have different names. I logged on to the SSMS of the new server and updated “[NRANAVDB].[dbo].[Server Instance]” table [Server Computer Name] to that of the new server. After doing that I started getting this error below and the server is no longer starting. Has anyone came across this error, if so what is the solution?
