Custom Import Fails When Importing a Large Membership Database

• Microsoft Site Server version 3.0

SYMPTOMS

When you import data from a Site Server 3.0 Personalization and Membership (P&M) database, Custom Import stops abruptly. There are no errors or event log messages.

CAUSE

This occurs because an array length is hard coded to a maximum value and the value is reached during a large import.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Site Server 3.0. For additional information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Q219292 How to Obtain the Latest Site Server 3.0 Service Pack

STATUS

This problem was first corrected in Site Server 3.0 Service Pack 3.

MORE INFORMATION

To install this fix, run Update.exe. Update.exe will install the correct file for the version of Custom Import (SQL Server or Microsoft Access) and rename it to Cimport.exe.

The LDAP server can limit the number of results returned to the import module even after this fix is applied Ensure that Max Query Results on the LDAP server is set to a sufficient number. The default is 500.
