Are you able to do any import/export according to documentation .If you can these are some tips .export can be performed for a max of 1000 nodes if you are on a default opentext.ini setting.however import can be performed only by the logged in admin user.pls check out my rudimenatry faq of xml/import at this same site
you may also want to change your debug level and wantlogs in opentext.ini to something appropriate to 2,11 and true and check thread<n> logs and it might shed some lght to the problems you are experiencing
anyways here is the faq link

I appreciate the response and had read your article. What happened was that I was trying to export a particular category with it's associated attributes but found that whilst the category exports OK none of the attributes are exported. My URL to export is:
and to import:
Perhaps it is the case that XML export will not export the attributes of a given category ?

The reason I was not seeing the attributes within the category is that they are the content and I did not specify current content when doing the export. It is a slightly confusing area.
For a normal object, like a document (let's say a word doc), you might consider it obvious to export the content. You might also want to export the attributes that have been assigned to it. So you would do ... xmlexport&content&version=current&attributes.
For a category, the attributes that are defined from the "content" of the category object in the same way that a document contains the word file as content. So a Category contains Attributes - but could also have a category and attributes APPLIED to it - and this is what the &attributeinfo parameter would attempt to export.
So what you need to export is .... .../livelink.exe?func=ll&objId=91263&objAction=xmlexport&scope=sub&nodeinfo&versioninfo=current&content=base64
Hope that this helps anyone else.
