UnixMigratorAgent error

[msibley]

When doing a migration of one domain from a Linux Plesk 8.6 to Windows 2003 Plesk 8.3, the migration manager says the the migration completed successfully, but nothing is copied over. In AdminMigration.log there is the error message:

Error occured while backing up zone 'domain.com' at 'UnixMigratorAgent'.[File domain.com does not exist!]

Any ideas about what this is and how to fix it?

Hello msibley,

This error message is for 'DNS migration' source hosting platform. You should use 'Plesk 8.6' platform that is absent in the list, because Plesk for Windows Migration Manager does not support migration from a newer Plesk for Unix version to an older Plesk for Windows one. That's why you can see only DSN migration in a source platform list

If you want to run migration at your own risk, please do the following:
1) go to %PLESK_INSTALL_DIR%\PMM
2) open file 'scout.pl'
3) replace string
"if (moreThanVersionOrEqual($major, $minor, $minorMinor, 8, 4, 0)) {"
with
"if (moreThanVersionOrEqual($major, $minor, $minorMinor, 8, 7, 0)) {"

Then you could start the migration. If everything is right you will see 'Plesk 8.6' in the list of migration platform.

Thanks.
