Unable to install Bitbucket Cloud Migration Assistant for Server

[Suzanne Yule]

On both our Jira and Confluence instance the Cloud Migration Assistant was system installed, however when i have gone onto Bitbucket it isn't.

I have gone onto Marketplace to install the Cloud Migration Assistant version for Server but it doesn't give me the option to install.

How do I install the Cloud Migration Assistant for Bitbucket Server in order to continue with our migration to Cloud?

I believe you can download them from this page:

https://www.atlassian.com/migration/resources/bitbucket-migration-assistant

I also advise you to check the pre-migration documentation to understand the prerequisite of the migration:

https://support.atlassian.com/migration/docs/plan-your-bitbucket-server-to-cloud-migration/

Let me know if you still have any issues.

Hi Syahrul,

When i click on the link provided it doesn't bring up an install option for Server. I did manage to go into the version history and download the Server version from there, which i hope is correct.

However when i installed it and click on the 'Cloud Migration Assistant' it just brings up a pop-up error message to say it is unable to communicate with Server. If i then click on 'Create migration' it just continuously spins when trying to find our Cloud site, which i assume is to do with the communication issue. We fulfil the prerequisites in terms of our version being up to date etc.

I have someone checking the logs to see if there is any further information around the error but failing that, would it be best to uninstall and reinstall that version i downloaded or is there another way of installing a version of Cloud migration assistant that works with Server? Would the Cloud Migration Assistant available for data centre work for sever if that was installed?

Hey @Suzanne Yule 

This sounds like the BCMA is having an issue communicating with Bitbucket cloud. Your server is likely behind a firewall and not exposed to the internet, and if yes, you may need to allowlist our IPs:

Let me know how it goes.
