Migration to MobileFirst

Question

I do migration of worklight projects to mobilefirst. When I open project created in worklight version 6.2 in new mobilefirst studio I see this project always as closed in eclipse. When I try to open it then I get this error:

!ENTRY com.worklight.studio.plugin 4 0 2015-02-17 13:09:10.550

When I delete .settings folder of the project I can open the project in eclipse but then after restarting eclipse I have again closed project.

Any idea what's it could be? Thank you for help!

Can you provide the project, or a sample project, showing this error so that it could be debugged? — Idan Adar
I too get a similar issue on migration, but the error is different. Migrating to Cordova 3.7.0 for ipad - file ipad is modified.Migrator class com.worklight.upgrader.upgraders.ios.AppCordova361IPadClassesUpgrader has failed Migrating the DemoApp project from version 6.2.0.00.20140724-2139 to version 6.3.0.00.20150214-1702 has failed because java.io.IOException: Unable to delete file: /Users/sen/Documents/MobileFirst-0/DemoApp/apps/Demo101/ipad/native/CordovaLib/Classes/UIDevice+Extensions.m — sansid1983
This is not helpful. Are you able to provide a Worklight 6.2 project that this can be reproduced with? — Idan Adar
It's big project. I will extract it for you for test as soon as I can. Thank you. — Nataliya Le Loup
Does not need to your Your project. If you can re-create it in a smaller-scale app it would be better. — Idan Adar

As this is likely a migration error and since you cannot provide the project's source code here, my suggestion for you is to open an IBM support ticket (PMR) and provide your source code there so that the bug could be debugged and resolved.

Edit: a smaller project was provided in the comments to this answer. The error was reproduced and the bug was found and will be fixed. See below for a workaround. You can open a PMR in order to receive a fixed Studio build.

Workaround
To workaround it, remove the proxy node from adapter XML file and try to migrate. Then, add it back after migration completes.
