We have created the export bundle using bi-migration-tool.jar in 11g.

when we tried to import the bundle into 12c we got below error :

Unexpected error during import:
Target 'D:\oracle\OBIEE12c\Middleware\Oracle_Home\bi\bin\..\..\

user_projects\domains\bifoundation_domain\config\fmwconfig\biconfig\OBIS\NQSConfig.INI'
not ins

ide top level directory
'D:\oracle\OBIEE12c\Middleware\Oracle_Home\bi\modules\oracle.bi.migrati

on\scripts\..\..\..\..'

Can anyone help me to resolve the issue.

Thanks in Advance,

Venu

    Also please let me know how to revert to back to the 12c default application (Sampleapplite).

    Hi,

    May i know why would you want to revert it back to default state,if the reason is to do the re-import,you can always run the import anytime and it will override with the latest bundle.

    Make sure you stop the 12c before the import.

    Also, as i can see you are using windows os for 12c, refrain from using desktop OS for 12c application.Coming to your original issue,please check the file permission for NQSConfig.INI as the bundle is unable to write in that file during import,hence throwing the error.

    Just because he has Windows paths doesn't mean desktop OS. 2012R2 has the same paths. So better ask first.

    Hi,

    The config files are located in the below mentioned path and have full permissions(Read,write...etc) to these files.

    obiee12c Nqs config.png

    But NqsConfig file type is showing in different format instead of XML format.

    Can we change it to XML format.

    NQSConfig.*INI*

    It never was an XML and your error states the same.

    NQSCOnfig is in xml format only.

    We have installed obiee12c on windows server 2008 R2.

    We tired to do the migration from obiee 11g to 12c by following oracle docs only even though still facing the same issue.

    I am not sure how you are saying  'NQSCOnfig is in xml format only." I replicated your case and i found the format is .INI only and it should be that way.

    Check its properties again and if it says xml ,that is why you are getting the error.

    Change it to .INI and do the import again.

    You maybe followed Oracle docs only, but you didn't took 5 minutes before the install to look at the certification matrix: OBIEE 12c is not certified for Windows 2008 R2, only Windows 2012 and 2012 R2. So your system isn't certified and I personally wouldn't recommend it for anything else than a quick test or a sandbox.
