Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 Data Migration Manager Readme

This document provides important late-breaking information about Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 Data Migration Manager that supplements the Microsoft Dynamics CRM documentation.

One of the error's i've seen during data migrations is this one:

"The Data Migration Manager encountered an error while setting up the temporary migration database. Restart the Data Migration Manager, and then try migrating the data again."

One possible source of this error message may be the UserReplicationID registry key. You can resolve this issue by deleting the registry key, restarting Data Migration Manager, and signing in again.

You can find this registry key in the following path (depending on your system type):

  • 32-bit systems: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Data Migration Wizard

  • 64-bit systems: HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Data Migration Wizard
