Problems exporting User Data - any ideas?

raptorq

Been trying to export my user data to import it on another machine I use and nothing appears to happen and the file isn't generated. I have done it sucessfully before on this same system - Daz Studio 4.9.2.70 on OSX 10.11.6
The log file gives the following error messages; -  2016-04-07 19:04:56.099 WARNING: No DzApp instance could be found in DzCLDatabaseMaintenanceAction::executeAction()
2016-04-07 19:04:56.140 WARNING: No DzAssetMgr instance could be found in DzCLDatabaseMaintenanceAction::executeAction()

Any Ideas

Thanks

Which versions of Ds (Help>About Daz studio) and is the database server (PostgreSQL) running?

Ds is 4.9.2.70 as stated above - no idea what or where PostgreSQL is.. sorry

What is easy to answer. PostgreSQL is a database....it sort of form the logical connection between the DAZ engine (Graphical User Interface and other components) and the user content stored in the DAZ folders....how else is DAZ going to know what Vicky's and Michael's are installed to play with? Enginous piece of software design and mostly rock solid as well. PostgreSQL is a open source database and as a rule of thumb these are maintained by a large and knowlegable user community and free for all to use and as stable or unstable (see my Genesis takeover post) as any commercial database engine, so DAZ has no licence fee's to pay to Oracle or Microsoft (allthough MS has a verry capable free version of MSSQL).

Now you wan't to check the version and that will be a bit more difficult for me to assist you with, since I'm a hardcore MS junky and the only product conceived at 1 Infinite Loop is my Beats Studio Wireless Headphone...and I like to keep it at that.....

But if you had a real   computer I would say, start DAZ, open the taskmamager and look at the processes running.....the PostGreSQL usually runs in one or more instances on my computer when DAZ is running.
