Hi
I thought I'd use the command line export util but it has no option for suppling a PW folder?
C:\EC-Apps\FaPla\Prog\ProjectWise\bin\pwexpt /s /ub fapladbp /uu qx*** /up ****** /ed /fe c:/work/92.0_export.aam c:/work/92.0_export.log
C:\EC-Apps\FaPla\Prog\ProjectWise\bin\pwexpt /s /ub "pw:\\SMUC2536.europe.bmw.corp:fapladbp\D.......\" /uu q**** /up ******** /ed /fe c:/work/93.0_export.aam /fl c:/work/93.0_export.log
If I use the interactive export it asks for a PE folder.
if I try to run it all I get is this error
Export (2013-02-19 10:30:06)
- [Log in must be done from command line when in silent mode. Try to pass all data needed for logging.]
This is from the help
- Open a command prompt and navigate to the "...\Bentley\ProjectWise\bin" directory.
Typing pwexpt on the command line and then pressing <Enter> launches the Export Wizard. Typing pwexpt /s lets you run the wizard in silent mode (without physically opening the Export Wizard). The following options are available when you use pwexptfrom the command line:Export Option
Definition
/s
silent mode (do not display Export wizard)
/ub
datasource name
/uu
user name
/up
password
/ee
exports all environments
/ed
exports all documents
/app
exports applications
/dep
exports departments
/queries
exports saved search definitions
/workflow
exports workflows and states
/fe
sets export file name
/fl
sets output log file name
- Enter the following:
pwexpt /s /ub pwtest /uu admin /up admin /ee /ed /app /dep /queries /workflow /fe c:/export/output.aam c:/export/output.log
In this example, the export command (pwexpt) runs in silent mode (/s), logs in to the datasource “pwtest” (/ub pwtest) using user name “admin” (/uu admin) and password “admin” (/up admin), and exports environments (/ee), documents, (/ed) applications (/app), departments (/dep), searches (/queries), workflows and states (/workflow), all to a script file called output.aam (/fe c:/temp/output.aam). This example also creates a log file (/fl c:/export/output.log) where you can review the results of the export.
tried editing the example line given in the help
pwexpt /s /ub fapladbp /uu ******* /up ******* /ee /ed /app /dep /queries /workflow /fe c:/export/output.aam c:/export/output.log
Still didn't work.
Do you have to be admin to run it and how do you pass a folder. For a large site it doesn't make sense exporting everything??
Only reason I want to do this is due to central coorparate IT not allowing separate select ids and not allowing/knowing about the Bentley Excel Export utility I am
having to bulkload files, then export them to get a .aam file, use perl to rewrite it adding extra data from excel table and then re import an new .import.amm file.
Did want to be able to export each folder as one .aam file.
Am I correct to assume that pwexpt can't do this?
