Unable to import CRM 2013 organization in CRM 2015

Posted on by Sreejith.Vijayan 25

Hello Team,

As a part of our CRM upgrade project, we created an instance of CRM 2015. I am now trying to creating a new organization with our 2013 instance , by using the import organization feature of the deployment manager.

The process runs, and almost reaches 100% and then fails with the below error.
