Failure may be caused by:

 - an incorrect -R17custo parameter (in a Customized migration)
 - an incorrect value for the database admin id parameter
 - an incorrect value for the Enovia admin id parameter
 - attempting to run this migration on a database that is not really at R17 level.

I have verified all the Paths and value's are correct and still get the same error.

Any suggestion on what to check would be appriciated

Dear Mike,

Seems that the DDL file generation is not working for you.
Possible that the .metadata files doesn't exist on the mentioned path or/and are currupt. Check the permissions on the file. Try to open the metadata file and have a quick look to ensure they look complete.

Thanks!
