Getting error when Migrating old content database

I thought I would finally upgrade from Daz 3 to Daz 4.6.
After installing the program, scanning for files and directories, went on to 'migrate old content database' and receive a non-specific error that says to check the log files. I will post the bottom lines of the log file below. Any help would be appreciated!

------------------------------
WARNING: Database Migration Error - Error migrating categories
WARNING: QSqlDatabasePrivate::removeDatabase: connection 'DzOldContentDatabaseConnection' is still in use, all queries will cease to work.

    You might try turning off the Content Management Service.
    All Programs>Daz 3D>Daz Content Management Service>Stop Daz Content management Service.
    Be sure Daz Studio is closed

    Hey thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it didn't work. I still get the same error.

    Nother tip: be sure DS 3 is closed so the file is not in use at the time of import.

    Thanks again, but yeah. Daz 3 was shut down as well. I appreciate all the suggestions!

    You need CMS to be running -- make sure it's On when migrating (if there's nothing under Categories then something has stopped it or is blocking it).

    Okay I turned CMS back on. I am using Windows 7

    Didn't catch this one before, but many problems with CMS can be traced to your antivirus program blocking it...make sure it is allowed in your AV's options. It is a server, after all...

    Some firewalls and I have found a FULL OS (example Win7 pro 64) can also see the CMS as a Service that needs shut down. So be 100% sure that your AV, your Firewall and your OS (in Admin mode) is set to ALLOW the CMS to run as a service.
