Hello All,

In the ARS 4.5.1 Worflow Administrator's Guide, in Chapter 15 "Importing Data into Forms", on page 15-29, the command-line syntax of AR Import is explained.

I am unable to make it run ; I tried the following :

C:\...\ARIMPORT.EXE -U arsadmin -P xxxxxx -M I00:ASSET_CENTER_IB -D k:\asc\proj_int\ars\macros
where I00:ASSET_CENTER_IB is the mapping name (not the file name of the mapping).

I also tried :
C:\...\ARIMPORT.EXE -U arsadmin -P xxxxxx -M I00xASSE -D k:\asc\proj_int\ars\macros
where I00xASSE.arm is the name of the mapping file (without the extension).

In both cases, the process terminates within about 2 seconds, and only one line appears in the Import log, showing the current date :

AR System Import Tool Mon Dec 18 15:58:46 2000

and that's all...

Any idea why this is not working ??

Boris

dont use -d, you dont need it.

heres an example, i run this in a bat file

"c:\program files\remedy\arimport.exe" -U Ajayp -P password -M Podmap1 -L
c:\import.log


the mapping should be created in the c:\....\remedy\home\arcmds directory
when saved.
also make sure you can login to the remedy import tool with the usernam and
password you have used in your command line and load this mapping name with
no problems.

I have the same problem. A window appears "ARIMPORT.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program. An errorlog is being created." I haven't found this log.

an errorlog for the arimport will be specified in the remedy import tool, but i would use -L c:\import.log in your command line to produce the error log to see what happens.

That log file only has a timestamp. I thought somebody might know if a certain version of ARIMPORT has to be used with a certain version of Server... I've tried various Windows OS (95, NT 4.0 and 2000 professional) and the latest two versions of ARS (I even set it up to use the exact command that works for AJAY - from a separate posting). When I get it to work, I'll let everyone know what little stupid thing that I overlooked. Thanks for the help.
