PSIcapture Migration Troubleshooting: Alternate Access Mappings SharePoint migration error

Problem:

When using the field CopyIntoItems to upload files from a client to a server, instead of its original intended purpose to copy files between two SharePoint servers, you may encounter an error:

Destination Invalid. The Copy web service method must be called on the same domain that contains the destination URL.

Solution:

Your SharePoint server may not be set up to use Alternate Access Mappings (AAM).

For example, by default a SharePoint server will only have:

http://psigen 

Stored in a value as an AAM.

If you are using 

http://psigen.corp.com

With the Copy service, and using it as the URL of the destination URL, it will fail.

This is because internally the URL is being resolved as

http://psigen 

This is the only valid URL syntax internally.

The fix this, add http://psigen.corp.com as a URL in AAM on the SharePoint site within the configuration settings.
