I need to migrate a whole SF instance from a Sandbox to a Live system. There is code, VF pages, S-Controls, New Custom Objects, modifications on Standard Objects (added fields, modified fields, etc...).
I have a feeling that doing this via Eclipse will prove to be a bit of a challenge... Does anyone have a suggestion on how to do this with the least amount of headaches possible? Thanks,
We've encountered an odd situation in our sandbox; it appears to have reverted back to a previous version (from 8/12/08 shortly before our refresh). We've contact basic support about this and the issue has been escalated, but I wanted to outline the scenario in detail in case others have encountered it as well and can provide some insight (any would be appreciated!)
We refreshed it about a week ago and since then my colleague Andy has been working in it on a daily basis. Simultaneously i've been regularly logging to both the Sandbox and the Production environments. This morning Andy logged in to discover that the Visualforce Pages and Apex Classes we implemented several months ago in our live environment (through a different sandbox) were no longer in the current sandbox. Upon investigation, we discovered that all our recent usage stats (from 8/12/08 through this morning) had disappeared along with the recent changes.
Customer support indicated that the sandbox automatically refreshes every 29 days; however, all available evidence excludes this possibility:
Sandbox does not reflect elements and structure currently live in Production Environment
Sandbox does not reflect recent usage in Production Environment
Sandbox reverted to expired trial full sandbox after having reverted to developer (apex-only) sandbox in our most-recent deliberate refresh (not that we mind that change :smileywink:)
Does this scenario involve a known bug? Has anyone else experienced a similar sudden change in their sandboxes?
We are encountering a very frustrating issue in our sandbox. This is the second time this incident has happened after we refreshed our sandbox(full) from production.
We refreshed and activated the sandbox on 7/28/2008 (i.e. couple of days back) and today i.e. 7/31/2008 at 12:18 Am, to our surprise it has switched back to the old version for no reason i.e. the version before the refresh. All the critical changes that we had implemented in sandbox after the refresh has vanished!
This is the second time it has happened consequently after we refreshed sandbox(full) from production. Has anyone faced a similar issue in their org. Ours is an Enterprose Edition.
Would greatly appreciate if anyone from salesforce admin can please respond to this issue as we only have a basic support which does not help. Please let me know if you need any other information.
So I was able to create a project in my personal developer account which is a production account, but I can not create any projects in our company's sandboxes.
If I try the SOAP endpoint (default) it says:
INVALID_LOGIN: Invalid user name or password or locked out.
I am using the same credentials as when I login through the web interface and I have added my IP range to the allowed list. Also tried adding the security token, no go.
If I try the endpoint https://test.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/11.1:
Unable to finalize Force.com project creation. Double check your connection settings. You may adjust the settings and re-sync on the Force.com project properties page.
We have Sandbox and production systems and configured the requirements in sandbox system. We are already in the process of replicating the same in Production system. Can some one tell us where should the system and UAT Testing be performed ? We are assuming that system and UAT will be done on production system. Please share us the best practice followed and relevant info on the same.
I love Eclipse. I use it on multiple machines and connect to 16 different instances of sf.com. I use it for S-Controls and Apex code development. Thanks so much for this tool, it is an incredible time saver.
About a week ago, I got an error when synching my s-control folder on one instance. Since then, I have been unable to connect to that instance. Of the 16 instances I connect to, this is the only one on na4. Looks like it is timing out:
Here is the error I get in Eclipse 3.2.2 with the latest Apex add on:
