The error:

Failed to upload the migration agent

migration.log shows:

1. Make sure that Mysql is running on the source server and you are able to login into it with:

mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow ` psa


2. Try to increase max_connections variable in /etc/my.cnf.

3. Make sure that the  /tmp/mysql.sock file exists. If not, create the link:

ln -s /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock
