Migration Application Generates An Empty Package To Cause (DDLIMP-ERR-1021: Unable to read ddl file) Error. (Doc ID 2771388.1)

Last updated on APRIL 26, 2021

Applies to:

Siebel CRM - Version 18.8 to 20.3 [Release V17]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

When migration application is executed, it generates an empty package (zip file) on "source" environment". When "target' environment attempts to deploy the changes, the first step ddlimp fails with DDLIMP-ERR-1021: Unable to read ddl file because there is no input file in the specified location

The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1) On the source SMC, "Primary Siebel File System" on the Enterprise Profile points to "\\Ew12s17o12\fs". This is the initial setting.

    

2) On the source srvrmgr, "FileSystem Enterprise Parameter" is updated to "\\ew12s17o12\FS2". So it has a different value from one at 1).    
srvrmgr:ew12s17o12> list advanced ent param filesystem show PA_VALUE    
    
PA_VALUE    
------------------------------------------------------------------------    
\\ew12s17o12\FS2    
    

3) On the source, "Migration Package Location" is set to "\\ew12s17o12\migration" on the migration profile.


4) On the source, login to the migration application then create "FullRR" plan.


5) Execution of "FullRR" fails at "Schema Service"/"Import".


6) On the target, ddlimp log file shows it could not read "\\ew12s17o122\SIA17\migration\1-1DIU\schema\ddlexport_39FA42D960EE.ctl". This is the detail of the failure at 5).   

 


7) On "\\ew12s17o122\SIA17\migration\1-1DIU\schema" (based on the FileSystem on the target), there is no ddlexport_39FA42D960EE.ctl.

9) On "\\ew12s17o12\migration" (based on "Migration Package Location" on SMC), "FullRR1-1DIU.zip" exists but the size seems too small.
