cant import using csvde
|
|
|
| hi all,
i do an export of my current user list
D:\>csvde -f output.csv
Connecting to "(null)"
Logging in as current user using SSPI
Exporting directory to file out.csv
Searching for entries...
Writing out entries.....
Export Completed. Post-processing in progress...
141 entries exported
The command has completed successfully
i edit the output.csv file to leave one line of a user.
i manually delete the user using the Active Directory GUI
tool.
then i try to import the user that was left.
D:\>csvde -v -i -f output.csv
Connecting to "(null)"
Logging in as current user using SSPI
Importing directory from file "output.csv"
Error reading attribute list
0 entries modified successfully.
An error has occurred in the program
BTW, i cant seem to find any documentation on what exactly
the CSV file format should be. Which is why im resorting
to this trial and error export/import trick.
Any hint would be greatly appreaciated.
thanks,
nancy

| CSVDE doesn't work on existing objects. Delete the object first and CSVDE
will re-add it. However, that's probably not a good idea. You should
probably be using LDIFDE or a VB Script instead.

| Oops, I reread the message and see that you deleted the user first. Sorry.
You might still try LDIFDE instead.
TechNet does have references on CSVDE.
