Forum Post: RE: Solution patching doesn't work, "Cannot update patched solution 'Test' directly. Use the holding pattern to upgrade."

You should be getting the dialog to 'Stage for Upgrade' in Import Option. Only when you select that checkbox will you get the solution imported. Can you provide screenshot of step : Deployed "Test v. 1.1.0.0" to CRM B -> no dialog for selecting holding mode -> error Thanks, Prateek
