appmetaload - Application Metadata Load

Note: This tool is called from lawappinstall and is normally not run directly.

appmetaload is a Perl script that scans the install.log file created by lasetup for the files updated by an installation, determines which updates were made to metadata files, and loads those metadata files into the GEN database.

To run appmetaload:

perl path\appmetaload productline CTP# ...

appmetaload.log

A log file is created by appmetaload, and can be found in the following directory:

%LAWDIR%\productline\Admin

The appmetaload.log file displays a list of the metadata updates that were found to load and whether these updates were loaded successfully. Any errors that occur during the appmetaload process of lawappinstall will be listed in the appmetaload.log.

The following is an example of the appmetaload.log file.
