Initialization failed

I wanted to pass along the resolution for this issue before closing.
After reviewing the
wp-config.php
file of the source site, we confirmed that DB_CHARSET
was not defined and was the cause of the critical error that prevented the migration from starting.The piece of code in our plugin that references
DB_CHARSET
is only for diagnostic purposes. To allow the migration to initialize, I have commented out the following line in the WP Engine Site Migration plugin.src/wp-migrate-db-pro/class/Common/Error/ErrorLog.php#L360
Going forward, we will ensure an appropriate fallback value is defined if this constant is not available.

Hi, Vincent Wondra. I'm the product manager of the WP Engine Site Migration plugin. Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback. I looked into migration attempts associated with your account, and I only saw a single successful attempt in the last 24 hours.
To ensure I'm looking at the right migration, I've just sent an email to the address associated with your account on the feedback board. Let's continue the conversation there.

The migration you saw before ( https://thebbsagency.com to https://bbsagency.wpenginepowered.com) was one of the only migrations that has worked with the new tool. But that migration was Flywheel to WPEngine so I would have expected it to go well.

Vincent Wondra: Thank you, I'll review the tickets and follow up.

Vincent Wondra: I followed up with some some troubleshooting steps in ticket 7354221 to determine what the REST API is returning when initializing the migration.
