iwmigrate Error in TS 6.7.0

markmess

I am trying to run iwmigrate on a Windows 2003 SP1 server with TS 6.7.0

I am running the following command trying to create a new store with all the branches from my current iw-store.

iwmigrate -m Y:/web -o E:\iw-store\new_web -b /web/main -g > migration_log.txt 2>&1

The one error I see is "Unable to set user to adminstrator for server session"

Which version are you migrating from?

Do you have a user called "administrator" on the machine that you are running the iwmigrate from?

markmess

Initially, I was migrating a store created in TS 6.7.0, just to make sure I could get the command working. I do not have a user called administrator on the server. I am logged in using my AD user account, I am a master in teamsite and an administrator on the box.

msrinivas

You might think it is absurd, but can you create a user called "administrator" on the machine and try running the command again.

HTH

markmess

ok, I created a user called Administrator and added him to the administrators group on the server.

I was able to run the script but I was getting permision errors when trying to read the editions. I added the Administrator user to the iwglobal group b/c that had full control on the editions and was then able to access the Editions on the Y drive. I ran the script again but still got the errors below:

There are a bunch of things that you need to do before you run iwmigrate. I am not sure if you have followed them.

Refer to https://support.interwoven.com/kb/kb_show_article2.asp?ArticleID=55358 for more info.

Are you doing a iwmigrate on the same version just for the heck of it or is there something else that you are trying to do. I am not sure I understand your motives.

markmess

I need to migrate branches from a store in TS 6.1 to my TS 6.7.0 server. I was just trying to get the command to work so I can understand how to run it before trying it on my production server. I figured it would be easy just to take a branch from the current store and recreate it in another store with the same version but it's proving not to be.

I followed all the steps in the KB article you have provided. Your telling me the only way to run this command is with a user called "Administrator". So I create this user, I added this user to Teamsite, made him a master, created the Edition with his ID and I still cannot run the iwmigrate.

I have not done iwmigrate on the same version. So I cant tell you that it will work for sure.

What you can do for this experimentation/testing purpose is take a copy of the store from 6.1 while it is on freeze and mount in on the new server and do a test migration.

Also I am not sure that 6.1 to 6.7 is a supported migration path. Please get in touch with support to have this answered. Most likely you might have to do a migration to 6.5 and then to 6.7.

Also, please check if you have TS6.1 SP2 installed.

markmess

I copied over a store from 6.1 and was successfully able to migrate it into a new store. I'm not sure if the path from 6.1 to 6.7 is supported but I didn't receive any errors running the command.

copying store directly causes the version history loss, if your are not bother about this then I think would not be problem.

Thanks Nicholas

Ok, now you lost me. It specifically says in KB article 55358:

==================
4) Pick one of the following. Option a) has the benefit of preserving version history if you choose to migrate editions, but can take a week or longer. Option b) has a speed advantage (it can generally be completed within a few days) and can work if iwmigrate doesn''t, but does not preserve history.

"a) Migrate your content using iwmigrate.

To do this, take a copy of the backing store from the 5.5,6.0, or 6.1. While TeamSite is shutdown, configure TeamSite to use it by either placing it in the path of the default iw-store location on the TeamSite 6.5 system or configure multi-store to point to the store location. Notes are provided on the use of multi-store following these instructions."

===================

Now you are saying copying over the store and running iwmigrate does not preserve version history?
