Migration Impact on Pup Files

For the latest version of Commerce Server 2007 Help, see the Microsoft Web site.

Unpacking Commerce Server 2002 or Commerce Server 2000 Pup (.pup) files is supported in Commerce Server 2007. Because some resources have been removed from Commerce Server 2007, these resources are either unpacked and ignored, or not unpacked at all. The Business Desk and Business Desk Security resources can be unpacked, but are not supported. When Business Desk and Business Desk Security are unpacked, an entry is added to the Windows event log.

The Predictor resource cannot be unpacked. If this resource is part of your packaged site, an event is added to the event log and the resource is ignored.

Be aware that only Commerce Server 2007 site resources can be packaged with the Commerce Server 2007 Pup packager. The following obsolete resource types can no longer be packaged: Predictor, Business Desk, Business Desk Security, and Campaigns. The Campaigns resource can be migrated to the Marketing resource by using the Upgrade Wizard, but cannot be used as a site resource in Commerce Server 2007.
