Importing Dynamic Parameters in XIr2

[gwsmith]

I am having problems getting Dynamic Parameters to work after importing reports from one BOEXIr2 server to another using the Import Wizard. We use a "development" server to test our reports, then use the import wizard to move them to our "production" server. When I import a report, no matter which "Import repository object options" I choose, I end up with same result...the imported report's parameters do not populate with a List of Values. The prompts come up, but no values are available. I have set the data connections on both servers identically.

Is this a problem others have encountered? I have some workarounds, but it means having to touch each report separately after importing. Any insight into this will be much appreciated. Thanks.

I would guess that something is stilloff in the data connections.

Install CR on the server for testing purposes.

Synapsevampire,
The data connections work fine on both servers. The dynamic parameters work fine on either server independently as long as I use the parameters developed on the same server as the report is developed on. It just doesn't work when I import from one server to the other, either from the development server to the production server or vice-versa. In other words, if the dynamic parameters are developed on one server, it works fine on that server but when I import the report with it's repository objects, it won't work on the other server. So it doesn't matter which server I am importing to or from, same results. Hope that makes sense.
