Import wizard did not bring everything over

We have Edge 3.1 on an older machine and that runs Windows Server 2003. We just bought a new server that has Windows Server 2008 installed on it and I installed Edge 3.1 on that server. From a previous resolved thread I was told to use the Import Wizard to bring over everything from the old server to this new server. It didn't work like I expected.

None of the users that I had created on the old server were brought over to the new server. Here is an excerpt from the Wizard log file for one of my users. It was the same error for all of them.

ID: 6064

Title: selead

Details - Error: Committing the export object to the destination CMS failed. Reason: Failed to commit objects to server :

Create operation failed.

Of course since the user was not imported I also got errors on each of the users personal folders and personal categories because the user was not found.

My universes were brought over to a point. I can see them in the CMC and they are in the FRS but when I log into Designer there are no universes anywhere. In the log file the only errors that I could find had to do with security import errors because the users that had access rights to them could not be found.

Am I going to have to recreate all of my users? How can I get to the universes within designer?

Any help would be appreciated!!

You may also want to open a case with the deployment team and have an engineer verify your workflow. IW should work if the right options are selected.

Anil, I am not sure what you are saying about changing the repository connection. Are you saying to point it to the repository on the older Edge installation? If you are I do not hink I know how to do that. Also our license is for one server only so as soon as I get everything going on this new server I am going to have to uninstall Edge from the older server so I can't point to it anyway.

I have been able to save a CR 2008 report to the new installation that worked on the older installation but I can't get it to run. I keep getting the database logon info is not correct error message on this new server even though I have everything set up exactly the same for that report.

I don't know exactly whether BO EDGE series will have the publishing wizard. If you have publishing wizard try to publish the report through wizard. don't save the report by opening a crystal report.

Some times when you publish the reports it will not commits due to the FRS issues. So check also ports...whether any ports are blocked.

1) Instead of importing everything why don't you change the repository connection. OR make copy of schema and just re point it.

2) Check whether you are able to publish reports locally.
