I am having difficulty migrating 5 projects to MyEclipse Enterprise 2014. I would appreciate any assistance in resolving this issue.

I am seeing the below exception when selecting CMATWeb:

Cannot initialize migration process of project CMATWeb.
Cannot initialize migration process of project CMATWeb.
java.lang.NullPointerException
Cannot initialize migration process of project CMATWeb.
java.lang.NullPointerException

The .log indicates this exception:

!SUBENTRY 1 com.genuitec.eclipse.migration 4 0 2014-04-18 13:30:45.201
!MESSAGE Cannot initialize migration process of project CMATWeb.

Iford,

Sorry that you are seeing this issue.

Can you please also send us the .classpath file and the contents of the .settings folder of the troubled project to help us investigate further?

Iford,

Thank you for the files. I have filed it for investigation with the dev team. We will get back to you at the earliest with the solution.

Sorry for inconvenience caused.

[lford]

Is there an update from the dev team on this issue? Thanks.

Iford,

Project has jst.utility facet installed and therefore is not correctly recognized as a Web project. You need to manually remove the jst.utility facet before migration. To do so you need to open the .settings/org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.xml file and remove the following two lines from the file –

<fixed facet=”jst.utility”/>
<installed facet=”jst.utility” version=”1.0″/>

Let us know how it works for you.

[lford]

Yes, that did work for multiple migrations. Thank you!

Iford,

Glad that you got it working and thanks for getting back to us.
Let us know if you see any issues in MyEclipse.

Iford,

This problem has been fixed in our 2015 CI 1 release. For details of this release, please see this announcement.

hey can you guys help me out in the migration of the project?
I have no idea what i am doing or what should i do..
Below is the project file . Please tell me what should i do so that the project works fine.

gobin098,

I am afraid the project files didnt come through. Please attach the .zip file of the project.

1. Can you please share with us your current MyEclipse Version and Build Id details (Help > About MyEclipse section)?
2. When you import the project to the newer MyEclipse, the Migration wizard will automatically prompt for migration in case the project needs migration and will guide you along. Do you see the Migration wizard when you import the project?
3. If you are seeing any issues/errors with the Migration wizard, then please share with us a screenshot of the error including the zipped project to help us investigate further.

Apologies for inconvenience caused.
