Hi Pmonks,

1.We have two Source folders i.e (Folder1 & Folder2) with 250 files each. 2.We created two Target Folders in Alfresco Site. i.e /Company Home/Sites/test/documentLibrary/bit1 /Company Home/Sites/test/documentLibrary/bit2

3.We Tried to Import the Documents from Folder1(from Chrome Browser) & Folder2(From Mozilla Browser) Simultaneously. 4.i.e trying to import Folder1 to /Company Home/Sites/test/documentLibrary/bit1 and trying to import Folder2 to /Company Home/Sites/test/documentLibrary/bit2. 5.While Imported Both the Folders Simultaneously we are getting a CONFLICT error. 6.We need to Import different directory documents to different target Folders in Alfresco using Bulk Import Tool. Can you please suggest on how to overcome this Conflict issue when trying to Import Simultaneously.

Thank you.

It's not possible to initiate two imports at the same time by using different browsers - the process runs on the server, not the client, and "knows" when it's already in the middle of an import, regardless of how many browsers (or even different client machines) are used to access it. The only way to accomplish what you're describing is to use multiple cluster nodes, and to initiate an import separately on each cluster node.

Is that what you're doing?

You may also want to double check that you're using the version of the tool provided here, and not the embedded fork.
