Could someone please explain to me how to migrate my projects?

I am looking at the MyEclipse help files and it says there should be a Migrate Project option under the MyEclipse menu but I do not have/see one.

Can I simply import my RAD projects into my new workspace? How does this work any pointers would be great! thanks!

For MyEclipse 7.1 (and 7.5, of course) we added the ability to directly support RAD project without migration so we removed the migration functionality. Sounds like we have a “documentation problem”. Can you reply with the link to the help file with the misleading info so we can correct it?

As far as the project support goes, we wrote it up in our New & Noteworthy section on the site and there’s a great webinar that goes all through it. I’ve posted links to both of those in my first reply in this thread, for easy reference: https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topic/migrating-from-rad-6-0/

[TheProphet]

Thanks! I was just watching the webinar.

As far as the bad documentation I am not sure how to get the link to you. I found it in the MyEclipse help files. If you go to
Help > Help Contents and search for Migrate it was the first option/link returned. The help page is called RAD Project Migration Tutorial.

Thanks for your help.

When trying to “Enhance” the WC project I keep getting an error stating –

“The Adding Struts support activity did not complete properly.”

No other information is provided so I am not sure what I did wrong or where to go next? Any ideas?

Here is what I find in the .metadata/.log

[Scott Anderson]

Just so we can be sure we’re on the same page, can you provide the link you used to install the WC example? I definitely want to compare apples-to-apples to see if I can reproduce this issue.

[TheProphet]

Unfortunately – I cannot the WC project I refer to is the server project that contains the client ear.

[Scott Anderson]

OK, we certainly understand confidentiality concerns. A few more questions then:

1) Were you already using Struts in the project? Or were you trying to convert it to a struts project with the wizard?
2) Is it possible to create a duplicate project, with the same structure, but without any source code that fails enhancement the same way that you could possible send to us? The important things are the “shape” of the project and the tools used on it, not the code itself.

[TheProphet]

1) The project is already using struts. I was not trying to convert only go through the “Enhance RAD project” dialogs.

2) Possibly – let me look into this and I will reply back.
When I am read how do you want me to get this to you?

Some notes:
When I try to enhance a project (WC in this case) there are other projects that MyEclipse detects as part of the ear and wants to Enhance those as well. (i.e CommerceAccelerator, Stores, SiteAdministration etc…) After I hit next I get a screen that asks me to select the Existing Websphere 6.0 location – so I do and hit next and this is where I get the issue mentioned above.

[Scott Anderson]

Regarding #2, an email to support@genuitec.com with a link to this thread is the best way to get it to us.

However, if the case is complex, why don’t we wait until early next week to determine next steps? The reason I’d like to delay is that our product manager and Blue Lead Developer are on vacation at the moment and I’d like to ensure we’re going down the most optimal path to figure this out. They may have a better way to go about this than I can think of and I don’t want to risk wasting your time if they do. Sound OK?

[Riyad Kalla]

TheProphet,

The ME team is slowly getting back into the office now — following Scott’s original suggestion of creating a duplicately “shaped” project that fails, could you forward that along to the given email address?

Also 1 other thing to try is to backup your .project file in the WC project, remove the Struts nature and builder and try enhancement again and see if it works — we might be failing at detecting the proper version of Struts needed to convert it… We should be detecting Struts 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 correctly, but 1.0 and 2.x will be aproblem if that is possibly what you are using in which case you could work around that temporarily by removing it from the .project file, then re-adding it after the enhancement is done.

[TheProphet]

I tried your suggestions, but was unable to locate the struts nature in the .project file.
I have sent the projects to the support email listed above.

Thanks for all of your help.
