Getting "Skipping unpermitted distribution type" error on import of schedules, but there's nothing fancy about these schedules. What are we missing?

[Debra Waybright]

Export/import of schedules from one environment to another, both environments are 9.1.0, and some schedules get this error. Comparing one schedule that imported fine to one that got this error, and the difference is that the schedule that worked was created last week, the other was originally created prior to our upgrade to 9.1.0. Both are simply running a report and emailing it. Both are using the same execution ID and have the same owning ID.

Ideas?

Hi @Debra Waybright​ - please check those settings

[Patrick Huebgen]

If there's nothing missing - please try to open and safe the schedule once and try to export/import this one as a test

[Debra Waybright]

The environment we are importing to has ReportCaster disabled (it is a test environment), so I can't get at that info. Is that maybe the issue? It just seems weird that some will import fine and others won't.

[Patrick Huebgen]

Disabled means it is not installed?

Did you checked the cm_export and cm_import logs for more details?

[Debra Waybright]

Probably means not installed. :)

Yes, I checked the import log, that's how I found the error message.

I guess that m ight be the issue - did you tried to resafe the non-woprkign one - 9.x made some changes to the repository - could be the case that newer jobs will be imported no matter if caster is active

[Debra Waybright]

The non-working ones were updated the same date the new one was created. I wouldn't import the schedules at all except we are prepping a new environment that will get promoted to production eventually.
