Installation Note 43656: Error SAS® Metadata Server migration failed occurs during configuration of the SAS Metadata Server
 |  |  |  |
If you create a SAS® Metadata migration package using the SAS® Migration Utility and then attempt to migrate that package to a new environment, the SAS® Metadata Server Configuration step in the SAS® Deployment Wizard might fail with the following error:
Metadata server migration failed. Choosing to continue will result in additional
errors.
The metadatasrv_configureMetadata log file will contain the error:
[MetadatasrvMigrate] ERROR: MdException occurred migrating Repository Manager:
The user does not have permission to perform this action.
This error occurs when the new configuration directory path contains a blank space, for example:
C:\TestSetup\SAS Install\SASConfig
To circumvent the problem, rename the configuration directory path such that it contains no blank spaces, such as:
C:\TestSetup\SASInstall\SASConfig
