HI ,

i created roles in server ECC6 server at my place(india) in client 100 and the same i have sent which they have to upload at onsite in a different server( it is also ecc6).

i even tested downloading from my client 100 and tested it by uploading in a new client 200 in my ECC6 server

Anand if it's so urgent then transfer all the single roles to the target system..This can be done by getting to menu in the single role and mention the logical system of the client 200 in the target system..Test for one role..If it's distributed then proceed with other roles..Make all the single roles into composite in 200..

I think the problem is, we cannot upload same roles in either development or testing servers even if it is various clients....

reward if it's useful..

Hi,

You should look if you have enough authorizations. You need object s_gui with actvt 60 and 61. It is also possible that the system is closed for updates, that you have to see to in transaction se06. If a role or composite role already exist the system will tell you this and asks what you wants. Uploaded roles need to be generated(create profiles). You can do this with a mass generate which you can find in the pull down menu from transaction PFCG. If it is one role or so you can do this with the profile generator.

good luck

How was this problem resolved? I am having the same problem in SRM 5.0 (trying to upload role and receiving message 'file does not contain any valid data').

Thanks,

Never mind. I found the answer in another thread (choose 'UTF8 for Unicode' when downloading and uploading).

Gail,

When you upload the role, there is an Encoding option (under File Name & Files of Type), pick the Unicode, your system will now read the file correctly.

Good luck!
