Import JIRA Project from other instance

Question

i tried to import a jira project from another instance (both has same version and same greenhopper version).

but there is an error, the custom field "Epos-Status" is needed. Its from type "Status of Epic", so i can't create a new custom field with this name.

in the target instance, i have a custom field from this type, but its named "Epic Status".

has anyone an idea?

It's a greenhopper-managed-field. i can not create a new field with this type and i can not rename existing fields...?

Unfortunately, there is no way around this. You will need to rename the custom field or make a new field with the same name.
