Vault Export/Import not working

Post by gmdl » Wed Oct 26, 2016 12:38 pm

Hallo,

I try to split a large repository into several small repositories using Folder Export/Import and run in all kind of problems:
- Export of one folder aborts with some obscure database errors
- I exported a small folder and inported it again. UI showed sucess, but on export much more transactions were counted then on import and the history was completly missing
- Even if it worked it would take such a long time, that this whole process would take weeks

Any suggestions how I should proceed to split the repository?

Is it a good idea to split the repositoriy? My concern is, that we run into problems if the repository keeps growing

Any help would be appreciated

Guntram

Could you post the errors or your Vault server log found on the Vault server at %windir%\temp\sgvault\sgvault.log and the Vault export import log found in %temp% (C:\users\<your username>\appdata\local\temp)? You can send logs to support at sourcegear.com.

I get this issue too.

Error:
Last sentence of the error = "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Ron: Do you have an obliterates in the repository?

In order to really troubleshoot Export/Import errors, it's best to look at it offline. I'll want to see transaction numbers, some history, and will send a query or two to dig into the information. Could you send an email to support at sourcegear.com with a link to this forum thread?

gmdl: Same answer for you. This would take more digging.
