Thanks for your help, Toby! <br><br>I'm thinking of doing the 'get latest' from VSS and checking it in - and for critical projects, moving them to a separate VSS database (with history) & running this converter on them separately.<br>
<br>If anyone else has any other suggestions, do let me know. I'm also curious if there are some general rules that prevent files from getting migrated - i.e. labelling or 'spaces' in project/file names etc..<br>

Anu,<br><br>If you have a copy of the database from before you ran analyze, I would recommend trying that version. Otherwise your best bet may be to pull a Get Latest from VSS and check that in on top of the migrated version.<br>
<br>Another option would be to search for other VSS-to-SVN converters which use the Microsoft API instead of the reverse-engineered converter from this project. Even though this project can usually produce more correct results, it may be that running analyze changes the structure enough to be unreadable.<br>

Toby-<br><br>I downloaded the latest recommended version about a month or so back - I'm guessing that was the same as the current recommended version i.e <u><a href="http://www.pumacode.org/download/vss2svn/vss2svn-0.11.0.zip" target="_blank">0.11.0</a>.</u><br>
<br>And yes, I did run analyze & repaired the database..Didn't try it before analyzing!<br><br>Any other ideas or tips?<br><br>Thanks!<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/2/14 Toby Johnson <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:toby@etjohnson.us" target="_blank">toby@etjohnson.us</a>></span><div>

And did you run analyze on the database before migration? Often it's better to try it without running analyze first.<br>

<br>- Only 3 of the 6 projects migrated <br>- <i>Many</i> files didn't migrate<br>
- I checked the logs of some files at random, and somehow, only history in 2004/2005 has been migrated. Later versions & corresponding history hasn't been migrated. <br>- The 'orphaned' folder contains 1940 folders<br>
<br>I need some direction on:<br>- how to troubleshoot these issues?<br>- any general reasons/things to look out for on why certain files etc don't migrate & how to fix them?<br><br>Any help will be greatly appreciated!<br>
