Qlik Sense failed to Migrate apps - Migration failed: 1003

hugo_andrade — Sun, 28 Feb 2016 19:56:38 GMT

We were running version 2.1.1 on our Sense server. I ran the 2.2 installer. The install was fine, but NONE of the apps migrated. I have already tried the manual migration. There are 250+ apps. A manual import of each app is my last option.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Sense Server as well.

Suggestions are really welcome.

Hi,

I already logged a case for this on tech support.

You have to check the application storage path in your QMC, if you changed it. Qlik Sense gets it back to default after migration.

Hope this helps.

Laurent.

Ok. I reverted the whole server after the unsuccessful upgrade. Will run the upgrade again and test your suggestion.

Thank you.

We just ran into the same issues. Laurent Paume's suggestion worked in our case!!!

Within the QMC under 'Configuration System' the application storage is found under 'Engines'. Double click on your available engine. Select 'Apps' from 'Properties'. You should find 'App storage directory'.

Good luck!!

Last update from tech support :

It's not a real bug because the app storage setting functionnality didn't exist (if you remember we changed it in the settings.ini file) that's the reason the setting wasn't migrated.

In fact, this can be problematic if you have an architecture using a SAN for example it's quite normal to change the app default storage.

Also regarding the best practices, I usually create a specific folder tree in order to get my apps in a specific folder, the external files, external qvw's, generated files... .

Anyway, it's not a huge problem as we found a pretty simple solution.

Laurent.

Thank you Laurent Paume. Your suggestion fixed the issue I was having.

We have around 600+ apps serving hundreds of users. I would like to know in advance all the changes needed for the upgrade. Laurent, would you please ask the support team at Qlik to add this note to the Reference Manual or to the Release Notes document?

Thank you.

I highlighted the change mentioned.
