Installation Note 43656: Error SAS® Metadata Server migration failed occurs during configuration of the SAS Metadata Server

DetailsAboutRate It

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
