Migration Failed — Could External File Passwords Be the Cause?

Hi everyone,

I recently attempted to migrate a FileMaker solution using OttoFMS and the migration failed.

Some of our scripts use Perform Script in File to call scripts in external files, which have different admin passwords from the file I’m migrating.

Additionally, when I tried to generate a script report (DDR), it also didn’t work properly.

I want to confirm:

Could the different passwords in external files be causing the migration to fail?

Thanks!

Hey @Sufi ,

I don’t believe the external files would cause a migration failure, as the data migration does not really touch the schema of the file or run any scripts. It should simply be moving data between the two files. I also wouldn’t expect those Perform Script in File to cause a DDR to fail.

Have you run a check for corruption on the file?
