Default Upgrade from business to ultimate

Detailing the steps you performed in attempting to upgrade would be
helpful - from the statement "...After30 minutes of doing stuff (which is
supposed to only "unlock features")...." - exactly to what does "stuff"
refer? Are you using an "Anytime Upgrade" key or the key from an Ultimate
installation?

Why does it have to be so painful...

I am trying to upgrade form business to ultimate. After30 minutes of doing
stuff (which is supposed to only "unlock features"). I get the following
in
the setuplog:
