Why does my Amazon Q Developer code transformation fail?

Resolution

Amazon Q Developer code transformation can fail for several reasons. If you're using Amazon Q Developer code transformation in a supported integrated development environment (IDE), then complete the resolution that best fits your use case.

Before you begin, make sure that you're using a supported Java version. If you're using .NET, then you must meet the required prerequisites. Also, confirm that you correctly set up Amazon Q Developer in your IDE.

Troubleshoot Java transformation issues

To troubleshoot common Java transformation issues, see the following resources:

• Completing partially successful transformations
• Why can't Amazon Q upload my project?
• Why are my Maven commands failing?
• Why can't Amazon Q build my code?
• Why did my transformation fail after 55 minutes?
• Why can't I download my transformed code?

If you receive an HTTP 403 status code error, then the Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) pre-signed URL that you used to upload code artifacts expired. The URL can expire when your data loss prevention (DLP) system takes longer than 30 minutes to scan the payload.

Troubleshoot .NET transformation issues

To troubleshoot common .NET transformation issues, see the following resources:

• How do I know if a job is progressing?
• Why are some projects not selected for transformation?
• How can I prevent my firewall from interfering with transformation jobs?

Troubleshoot other transformation issues

If you still experience transformation issues, then check the IDE logs for more details.

In JetBrains, search the IDE logs for the software.aws.toolkits.jetbrains.services.codemodernizer string to find the logs that Amazon Q Developer provides. For more information, see Locating IDE log files on the JetBrains website.

In the Visual Studio Code IDE, complete the following steps:

1. In the navigation pane, choose View, and then choose Command Palette.
2. Enter "Amazon Q: View Logs" in the search bar to open the logs in IDE.
3. Press CMD+F or Ctrl+F, and then enter the code transformation string to search the logs.

If the preceding steps don't resolve your transformation issues, then contact AWS Support. Include the transformation job ID in your support case.

To find the transformation job ID, take the following actions for the tool that you're using:

• In JetBrains, open the Transformation Hub. Choose Transformation details, and then choose Show Job Status.
• In VS Code, open the Transformation Hub, and then choose Show Job Status.
• In Visual Studio, choose the Output tab. Under Show output from:, choose Amazon Q Language Client.
