Migrating from WLPS 3.2 to 4.0

Hi,
We are planning to migrate from WLPS 3.2 to WLPS 4.0. We have purchased licenses
only for WLPS 4.0 not the the portal piece which is old seperately. We havent
used any of the custom tags that BEA provides. It was a conscious decision that
we made as we knew some of these tags may not be supported in future releases.
Due to some bugs with the way multi valued properties are handled in 3.2 we had
to write custom code to perform the tasks.
We basically have custom code that makes direct calls to the UUP and to the Rules
engine EJB. My question is, during our migration is it likely that we will encounter
significant problems with our code, that makes calls to these EJB components?
Have methods in these EJB's been deprecated? Have method signatures changed etc...?
There was no mention of any changes in the migration docs. If indeed there have
been changes, is it documented anywhere? If not what do we expect?
Any information will be invaluable, and will help us through the migration.
Thanks!

Kapil,
The products now come with a migration tool that can analyse your source
code and warn you if you are using deprecated or removed APIs/features. It
is hard to generalize from your comments but there have been significant
improvements from 3.2 to 4.0. The migration tool attempts to make the
transition as easy as possible (including performing simple API
substitutions).
Please don't hesitate to post back with specific questions or issues that
you run into.
Sincerely,
Daniel Selman

  • Migrating from legacy site / dreamweaver templates

    We are going to migrate to the weblogic portal content management over the next few months - we have thousands of pages on our old site that were created using dreamweaver templates.
    Is there a way to automate the migration - to import the old html files? I could use the dreamweaver template to strip out the old design. But then how would I import it? What have other users done when migrating from an old static site to a content management system?

    You can use bulk loader utility of WLP. Please see the link http://edocs.bea.com/wlp/docs102/cm/bulkloader.html

  • Creation of domain issues - migration from weblogic 10.3.0 to 10.3.5 versio

    Hello,
    i would like to kindly ask for a help with following issue:
    Basically we are migrating from the 10.3.0 to the 10.3.5 version. We are building the domain using the template in "silent mode". And when i try to create the domain with new weblogic 10.3.5 im getting some errors.
    The command to run the creation of the domain is following:
    ${WL_HOME}/common/bin/config.sh -mode=silent -silent_script=${SILENT_SCRIPT} -log=${WLLOGFILE} >> ${LOGFILE} 2>&1
    returnCode=$?
    SILENT_SCRIPT contains following commands:
    read template from "/local/wg372/BM/appl/config/NEW_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED.jar";
    write domain to "/local/wg372/BM/appl/BmDomain";
    set OverwriteDomain "true";
    close template;
    When i setup new env(solaris) with weblogic 10.3.5 im getting following error when the silent_script command (*write domain to "/local/wg372/BM/appl/BmDomain";*) is executed:

    I tried to google for this issue, look into the weblogic documentation but with no luck.
    So i would like to kindly ask, if anyone of you perhaps could give me a hint/advise with this problem.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    thanks for the reply but im not sure if we are talking about the same thing. What i need is to upgrade the weblogic "DOMAIN" not the weblogic installation itself.
    Anyway,
    after some googling and testing im again stucked with another issue:
    1. First i have created the old doman (10.3.0)
    2. Then i have tested the domain with the new weblogic version 10.3.5 - as it should be (and is) compatible within those 2 versions
    ---> worked fine
    3. Then via offline WLST(of weblogic 10.3.5) i have managed to create new template with command writeTemplate(nameOfTemplate.jar)
    4. But when i try to create the new domain with the new template via WLST(of weblogic 10.3.5) im again stucked (im able to read the template in wlst but not able to writeDomain ) - error:
    wls:/offline> readTemplate('/home/wg372/tmp/new_template.jar')
    wls:/offline/BmDomain>writeDomain('/home/wg372/tmp/new_domain')
    Error: writeDomain() failed. Do dumpStack() to see details.

    I tried to have a look around for the "The application location must have write permission." problem but again with no luck.
    Furthemore when i try to do the same with old domain template, with old version of WLST (of weblogic 10.3.0), i have no problems with creating of the domain.
    Any ideas?
    Ill keep you updated :-)

  • Removing Public Folders after migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013

    Recently we migrated from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013.  We did not migrate Public Folders and are retiring them from Exchange altogether.  I shut Exchange 2007 off for a couple of weeks to ensure 2013 functions properly and it does so we're
    ready to decommission Exchange 2007.  I was able to remove all the mailbox databases without a glitch.  Using the EMC I click to remove the Public Folder database from Exchange 2007 and get the following message:
    Error: The public folder database "server\storage group - Public Folders\ Public Folder Database" contains folder replicas.  Before deleting the public folder database, remove the folders or move the replicas to another public folder database.
    Any help appreciated.

    Hi Terry,
    If you run the following command does it come back with any public folders?
    Get-PublicFolderStatistics -Server "SERVERNAME" | fl
    If nothing comes back you can follow this guide to manually remove the public folder database (at your own risk) http://haythamalex.wordpress.com/2011/11/24/how-to-force-exchange-server-public-folder-removal/
    Cheers,
    Jack
    I get alot of output from that command.

  • ActiveSync stops working after migrating from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013

    We have started the migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. We've followed best practices and everything is working great except ActiveSync. I've performed Exchange migrations in the past so this is nothing new for me. I've also been referring to
    a great guide which has been a big help,
    http://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/exchange-server-2013/migration-deployment/planning-and-migrating-small-organization-exchange-2007-2013-part1.html.
    Once a user is migrated from Exchange 2007 to 2013, ActiveSync stops working properly. Email can be pulled to the device (Nokia Lumia 625 running Windows Phone 8) by performing a manual sync. But DirectPush is not working. The strange part is it's not affecting
    everyone who's been migrated. Anyone who is still on Exchange 2007 is not affected.
    At first I thought it was our wildcard certificate. 99% of our users are running Outlook 2013 on Windows 7 or higher but we do have a few terminal servers still running Outlook 2010. Outlook 2010 was giving us certificate errors. I realized it was the wildcard
    certificate. Rather than making changes to the OutlookProvider I simply obtained a new SAN certificate. Although that resolved the issues for Outlook 2010 users, ActiveSync was still a problem.
    Rebooting the phones and removing the email account from the user's device and re-adding it didn't resolve the issue either.
    Then I performed an iisreset on the CAS server. This didn't help either. I didn't know it at the time, but I was getting closer...
    I tried using the cmdlet Test-ActiveSyncConnectivity but it gave me the following error:
    WARNING: Test user 'extest_0d9a45b025374' isn't accessible, so this cmdlet won't be able to test Client Access server
    connectivity.
    Could not find or sign in with user DOMAIN.com\extest_0d9a45b025374. If this task is being run without
    credentials, sign in as a Domain Administrator, and then run Scripts\new-TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1 to verify that
    the user exists on Mailbox server EX02.DOMAIN.COM
    I started reviewing how Exchange 2013 proxied information from the CAS to the mailbox server and realized the issue may in fact be on the mailbox server.
    I performed an iisreset on the mailbox server and all of a sudden ActiveSync started working again. Awesome!
    I can't explain why. The only thing I can assume is when some users were migrated from 2007 to 2013 something wasn't being triggered on the Exchange 2013 side. Resetting IIS resolved the issue. I guess I'll have to do an IIS reset after I perform a batch
    of migrations. Disabling ActiveSync and re-enabling it for the affected users didn't help - only the IISRESET resolved the issue.
    If anyone has any information as to why this happens, please chime in. Also, if anyone knows why I can't run the Test-ActiveSyncConnectivity cmdlet, I'd appreciate the help.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    In Exchange 2013, the Public Folder is changed to Public Folder mailbox instead of Public Folder in Exchange 2007 database.
    Due to the changes in how public folders are stored, legacy Exchange mailboxes are unable to access the public folder hierarchy on Exchange 2013 servers. However, user mailboxes on Exchange 2013 servers or Exchange Online can connect to legacy
    public folders. Exchange 2013 public folders and legacy public folders can’t exist in your Exchange organization simultaneously. This effectively means that
    there’s no coexistence between versions.
    For this reason, it’s recommended that prior to migrating your public folders, you should
    first migrate your all legacy mailboxes to Exchange 2013. For more information about migrating public folder from previous versions, please refer to:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150486(v=exchg.150).aspx

    Target
    Domain -   test.net
    Active Directory -  Windows 2012

    Also if it is possible ,
    How could I remove the source environment including the exchange servers. after the migration ?
    Regards
    Muralee

    Hi Oliver ,
    Please suggest us.               
     In my environment we are in a plan to migrate from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 (cross forest migration).
    Source : Exchange 2007 with sp3 ru 10 
    Target : Exchange 2013 with cu2 ( new environment yet to be created).
    Trust : Forest trust in place (two way )
    Domain and forest functional level : 2003 in both target and source  
    Migration Steps :
    Step1 :
    We are in a plan to execute 'preparemoverequest.ps1' first in the target forest ,so that we will get the disable MEU
    in the target forest.
    Step2:
    Then we are going to use ADMT to migrate users SID'S and password .
    Step3:
    Then we are going to move the mailboxes with New-moverequest  
    Please have a look in to our steps and suggest us ,whether we are going to proceed the migration in a right way or not
    .Is anything needs to be changed please intimate me .
    Thanks 
    S.Nithyanandham 
    Hey there,
    Sorry for taking a little while to get back to you, i've been busy working on Hosted Lync deployments!
    Use ADMT first, then when using preparemoverequest.ps1 script using the -uselocalobject cmdlet. This will then tie it up to the ADMT migrated account.

  • Migrating from Exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 ( special case )

    Hello , 
    what is the BEST scenario ( fastest , most efficient , most secure in terms of data loss )  , to migrate from exchange 2007 ( one server , all exchange roles installed on this server , 1200 mailbox ) , to exchange 2013 ? 
    knowing my environment needs to be connected to their mailboxes , 24/7 ! 
    it's very frustrating . 
    and i have no clue even if this is the right place to post about this , if not please refer me as to where to post . 
    Also , All my domain controllers are 2008 .

    It's fine to post your question here, and you are fine with Server 2008 Domain Controllers - that is a supported scenario.
    If you haven't performed such an upgrade and you need to have 24/7 mailbox availability, I would seriously recommend you to duplicate the production environment on a test network and run through the upgrade at least once.
    Most people neglect the Outlook clients requirements - they need to be updated and include several specific updates, which allow the automatic reconfiguration of internal clients. If you are preparing for this upgrade, you should be aware that all internal
    Outlook clients switch to Outlook Anywhere. Clients that miss these updates will get connectivity problems.
    Another common problem is the configuration of the Exchange URL - I mean the Exchange 2013 URL and the modified Exchange 2007 URL that will allow the co-existence. In your case, you definitely need to plan for co-existence - that includes requesting and
    installing a new Exchange UCC (Multiple Domain Certificate) on both Exchange servers, configuring Split DNS (or preferably PinPoint DNS zones), and correct timing when replacing the existing Certificate on the Exchange 2007 server. Failure to configure the
    correct URL (and it's quite easy to miss one, so triple check them) will get you in trouble.
    Once you get through the switchover (switching the mail flow and Client Access through the Exchange 2013 server), move just a couple of test mailboxes and check the result.
    Finally, if you are moving the Public Folders, make sure that the lock is really applied before you complete the process. Most people proceed right away and that get's the process stuck. If you can afford it (the mailboxes are already on the Exchange 2013
    server at that point), just restart the Exchange 2007 server (after locking the Public Folders) and then complete the Public Folder migration.
    Good Luck with the project!

  • Migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013

    We are migrating from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. We have a new Exchange 2013 server will all of the roles installed, but none of the mailboxes have even been moved yet. We are seeing some of our users getting prompted to accept the self signed certificate
    on the exchange 2013 server. Exchange 2007 server is still handling all of the mail flow and connectors. Any reason why some of our users would be prompted with the certificate for the exchange 2013 server even though their mailbox is still on exchange 2007.
    Our users are on outlook 2010.

    Hi,
    Could you show us what is the prompt details?
    According to your desciption,I recommend you refer to the following methods to troubleshoot:
    1.Please check if outlook anywhere been configured to connect exchange 2013.
    2.Ctrl+Right click outlook, use “Test E-mail AutoConfiguration” to check all the settings .
    Thanks.

  • Can only access emails through OWA after migration from exchange 2007 to 2013

    can only access emails through OWA after migration from exchange 2007 to 2013, in other words unable to access mails through outlook or from other Applications services.
    needed RCA ... plz help..

    Hi,
    From your description, you can send and receive messages only when you use OWA after migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know.
    In your case, I recommend you create a new test mailbox in your Exchange 2013 and check if you can send and receive messages on Outlook. If yes, it is recommended to create a new profile to solve this issue.
    Hope this can be helpful to you.

  • How to migrate from exchange 2007 to 2013 step by step tutorials please

    Hi
    I am running Windows Server 2008 standard, with exchange 2007 SP2 on it.
    We have 800 mailbox in total
    Our domain controllers are
     Win2012 R2 and I would like to upgrade to Exchange 2013 on Windows server 2012 R2.
    I am running a VM, on VMware environment, so my Windows 2012 R2 is a VM.
    Is there a website or document that explains in detail, step by step how to upgrade from 2007 to 2013.
    I currently only have 1 exchange server 2007, with all the roles on the one server.  I would like to keep that same as
    well with exchange 2013.
    Thanks

    Exchange server deployment assistant is always a good service provider to achieve this task as it simply ask few questions about your current environment and proceed further accordingly.

    migration task in more secure way.

  • Migrating from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 Public Folders coexistence

    Hi all, I'm migrating from Exchange 2007 SP3 to Exchange 2013 SP1.
    I have an Exchange 2007 server (Client Access, Hub Transport and Mailbox Server) in Site A, mailboxes and Publics Folders
    In another Site in Site B, I have already installed (Client Access and Mailbox Server) Exchange 2013 server.
    I am migrating test users, the fact is that users who migrated to Exchange Server 2013 Public folders do not see.
    How I can make the migrated users from viewing the Exchange 2007 Public Folders duration coexistence?
    Is there a "how to" to migrate Public Folders from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013?
    thank you very much

    Hi,
    In Exchange 2013, the Public Folder is changed to Public Folder mailbox instead of Public Folder in Exchange 2007 database.
    Due to the changes in how public folders are stored, legacy Exchange mailboxes are unable to access the public folder hierarchy on Exchange 2013 servers. However, user mailboxes on Exchange 2013 servers or Exchange Online can connect to legacy
    public folders. Exchange 2013 public folders and legacy public folders can’t exist in your Exchange organization simultaneously. This effectively means that
    there’s no coexistence between versions.
    For this reason, it’s recommended that prior to migrating your public folders, you should
    first migrate your all legacy mailboxes to Exchange 2013. For more information about migrating public folder from previous versions, please refer to:

  • After Migrating from 10g to 11g Geeting problems with Guided navigations.

    After Migrating from 10g to 11g Geeting problems with Guided navigations and section navigations not working.
    And we are getting the following error <<odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW)>> where we have used navigations.
    In 10G we have Guided navigation Reports to display the Reports links and intermediate reports for conditionally displaying the Dashboard section(Reports) but after migrating to 11g Guided navigation reports and conditional reports are not working..
    We know that in 11g section navigation replaced with conditions and Guided navigation replaced with action link.. but
    do we need to recreate those reports in actions and condition or is there any work around avoid reworking.

    Hi Both,
    Thanks for the reply ...
    For Guided navigation we are getting like below error:
    Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).
    For Conditional dashboard section we are getting like below error:
    "saw.aViewsToRefresh = [];saw.aViewsToRefresh['d:dashboard~p:1egt6il5utl0uu8n~s:3jsmgfs3c1r4tn7c~n:condition'] = true;saw.aViewsToRefresh['d:dashboard~p:1egt6il5utl0uu8n~s:nos5q43jvjmi643b~n:condition'] = true;"

  • Migrating from SBS 2011 to Windows Server 2012R2 Standard with 365

    Im looking to move SBS 2011 to Server 2012R2 standard and with a 365 migration as well.
    Im thinking
    BPA for AD (health check)
    Add the Server2012R2 as a DC
    Ensure replication
    Move DHCP
    Change DNS
    Now this is where I get lost, now Im lost to use either dirsync or add essentials service, I have gone for standard and 30 cals with the option  as I have 28 users and the essentials service would make everything quite nice for remote access and backups
    etc....  however I don't know whether to just use dirsync with password replication instead ?
    Currently Im aiming towards getting the dc up and running then enabling essentials on the dc but I dont know how it will effect SBS and having essentials on the same network and sync'ing people to the cloud ? So Should I use DirSync on a different server
    instead to sync up to azure ?
    Finally with 365 I have only ever done a migration involving an export of pst's from an exchange box and then on a new domain with new pc's and reimport the pst's on the user accounts in outlook.
    However I have read when migrating to 365 was using exchange 2010 there was a application
    to move everything across however you needed an ssl cert iirc ? so I dont know how it works now since the nice new dashboard upgrade (assuming the tool has been updated like dirsync)
    along with the above how does AD now know where exahcnge if you use the migration app with an ssl cert and is it a case of still running the 365 config tool to configure each user to look at their mail in the
    cloud ? Also is it a good idea to enable essentials from the start of the 2012r2 dc for replication top 365 or to use dirsync ?
    then finally when replications is all good start transferring the FSMO roles over to the new DC and demote and remove the SBS server
    I have seen (below) but i dont think it covers this scenario and I cant be the only person in this situation =\ ?

    Hi,
    Would you please let us know current situation of this issue? If any update, please feel free to let us know.

    I’m a little confused with the description. Did you mean that set up DC (Windows Server 2012 Standard) and
    then install the Windows Server Essentials Experience role? If so, when you migrate, please refer to the article:
    Migrate from Previous Versions to Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials or Windows Server Essentials Experience
    Regarding to migrate Exchange to Office 365, please refer to following articles.

    If anything I misunderstand, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
    Hope this helps.

  • I was migrating from a 3gs to the 4s. Big mistake. Have lost contacts and access to music and apps.

    I was migrating from a 3gs to the 4s. Having never upgraded the IOS before, I thought that I should do that before handed the phone down to my daughter to replace her broken 3g. Big mistake. Even using Google sync for my contacts, following instruction from the Google webpage (ambiguous: cancel or not when error message is displayed?) the contacts did not sync to gmail. iTunes says it will sync contacts, but doesn't from the phone, only from the few that were in my old Gmail account. The iCloud set up asks for email and a new password- not specifying that you should use your old email and password for your old iTunes account or your phone will be instantly locked out of those apps and tunes stored there. The web info says you can't merge accounts or passwords, so, I bet I have to cancel the new set up and start over with the old password if it will even let me. I've spent 8 hrs reading, syncing, et c., on this! It will be a long time before I casually buy a new phone from them! I wonder how much time it will take to switch from the 3GS to the 4S? I now have a 3GS without contacts, no way to get the data from those files back, and can't get the apps to it or the 4S until Apple support helps fix the double identity problem.
    Considering that I had verbal instructions from the Apple store prior to the IOS upgrade, reviewed all the details on line, I think this process is woefully lacking in clarity and transparency. The local ATT branch offered nothing except backing up to avoid loss of contacts if both phones were taken to the store, but not any help with the IOS or iTunes content. Cable internet for the 3GS backup and IOS 5 upgrade seemed to take about 2 hours. At least calender, notes, etc. were done correctly and 2500 picture and videos were not removed.

    After the last post,I went to the local ATT for some feedback. The manager there, Stephen, was helpful and spent a long time, even after i had gotten the abbreviated list of contacts I had constructed from the 3GS to the 4S by an iTunes sync with the correct options selected. This however, would not sync notes. I took screen pix of my many stock symbols for future reference, and got them to transfer with Bump (as photos, in case I want to refresh my memory on some of the symbols added previously). I emailed myself copies of 28 notes i did not want to lose, because the iCloud back up would not initially work. After what seemed like years, I finally was able to get it working, following repeated refusal to Merge because of "not enough space available" @5GB even though everything was turned off except contacts and calendar.
    My old phone is finally backed up to the cloud after I turned off location service on new phone, and a bunch of apps and photo data showed up for the first time, as icons to be turned off on the old phone in the  Manage Storage window. It said it was going to back up 8 GB of photos when the photo backup had been turned off on the prior screen. (The screws are loose, and the worm has turned on this software at Apple.)
    Backup for notes, a few contacts, and calendar, over high speed wifi, took 25 minutes to complete without photos.
    I have never seen anything this troublesome in the Apple OS!
    You will need to set your own Apple ID and a .me email ID if you want to use the cloud. My recommendation and that of the store manager for the first time is don't back up any photos, let it erase the photo stream if it wants to. The camera roll should be ok.
    Backing up to the iCloud removed all my stocks from the old phone! It wasn't supposed to. Be sure to select leave data on phone at every opportunity- even so, there they went. It did not remove contacts or calendar when backing up, though the IOS 5 upgrade had lost my years of contacts since I had not specified that they should be saved when I hit the simple sync in iTunes the first time and since Googlesync failed to connect properly for me over wifi as noted above.
    All in all it appears nothing is going to clone your phone or preserve all the data through a IOS 4.x to 5 migration, though I did not do it right the first time with iTunes, and complicated matters by starting with a new ID instead of my old iTunes account and password, living in a small town, away from any Apple store, though if you can't be there at an Apple store with both phones in hand, they probably can't help much unless they walk you through each option in iTunes and you are very attentive. The store genius I saw did not do this, though I had yet to order the phone at that point.
    Good Luck!
