Transport problem.

Posted on Nov 22, 2004 at 03:49 PM 12 Views

Hi ALL.

I've a problem:I transported from test to quality environment some iviews, but folder's and also iview's authorizations are not included in the transport,so I have to set them again manually.

What I have to do to include them in the transportation?

Thank you very much.

Nick.

    Nicola,

    you mean the access permissions that one can set inside the portal content studio?

    Sorry, these ones are not transportable. And, by the way, I think it's better this way, because of the following:

    - You typically don't want to grant users the same permissions in QA as in DEV

    - You typically don't even have the same user IDs / groups in DEV and QA.

    Probably the best approach to your problem is to manually create the folder structure in the target sytem beforehand (using exactly the same folder IDs (incl. namespaces) as in the originating system) and set the permissions manually.

    Now if you transport your folder structure, the iViews will be automatically included into the existing folder structure. The permissions will remain as you have defined the previously (and not overwritten). By doing so, you will have to define your authorization concept one time manually in the target system and you won't be affected of any transports that might change the existing permissions.

    Regards,

    Dominik

      hi,

      we had a similar problem before... make sure that you include the main folder in the transport. name all your objects (folders, iviews, pages, etc) including the main folder with a prefix. and under Export Settings, make sure you specify this prefix.

      i hope this helps.
