Jira Cloud Migration Assistant - Issue

[Kyu Lee]

I'm using the Jira Cloud Migration Assistant to migrate projects to the cloud.  I create a test project with the test stories in order to test this migration.  Everything checks out but then i run the migration I get this error.  

2020-04-24 16:21:51.445 ERROR TM project-export We couldn't export Field Layout Scheme default. Reason: java.lang.IllegalStateException: entity.id must not be null.

I tried searching for Field Layout Schemes but I could not find anything.  Any help would be appreciated.

Hello all

I run into the same error today: 

2021-11-15 08:50:17.372 ERROR XXX project-export We couldn't export Field Layout Scheme 'Field Configuration Scheme Default'. Reason: java.lang.NullPointerException: entity.id must not be null.

Then I created a new Field Configuration Scheme and I copied the Default Field Configuration.

Assigned the copied Default Field Configuration to the newly created Field Configuration Scheme and associated the Scheme to the desired project. 

Hope this helps also other users.

Hi, I have the exact same problem like in the topic starter,

For every project at our Jira Server.

2021-05-03 13:33:07.897 ERROR XXX project-export We couldn't export Field Layout Scheme default. Reason: java.lang.NullPointerException: entity.id must not be null.

Can anyone help?

I am stuck on this for weeks now

Same issue here. Created a ticket with Atlassian. I'll update this thread with any findings. 

[Stefan Zander]

Looking forward to your answer :)

[brad-anderson]

Atlassian said we need to upgrade the Server instance for migration to succeed. Others say their instance is on the current release with the same failure. We'll jump through that hoop and report back. 

[Stefan Zander]

We're also on the latest release

@brad-anderson Do you have any news on this topic?

[Loic Yannou]

Hi everyone

Same issues while my previous migrations (2 weeks ago) were working

@brad-anderson do you have any news from the Atlassian support, please ?

[brad-anderson]

They got back to me quickly. However, there isn't an easy fix. This is the gist of their response: "Unfortunately JCMA plugin is still a WIP which is actively being improved but still misses some features. Please, check this page  to see what gets migrated by the plugin."  

We'll likely abandon the migration because it is too much of a lift to get into a system that is getting increasingly locked down. The result will be prices will go up and it'll be more difficult to migrate away from later on.

Thank you @brad-anderson 

Fyi, Atlassian released a new version (1.5.4) of the add-on

[brad-anderson]

Thank you. It's good to see improvements to the migration plugin.

Are you using any apps from the Atlassian Marketplace that could affect your custom fields or workflows?
