MECM closes when trying to create a Migration job

Hello.

I'm trying to follow the guide at
https://systemcenterdudes.com/sccm-1511-migration/
and I successfully specified the Source Hierarchy. Now I can see that in Source Hierarchy.

But when I try to create a Migration Jobs, (as in the next step in the above guide), after I click Next on the first "General" step of the Wizard, "Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager" Closes. When I reopen it, nothing has changed and I see no Migration Jobs.

Any hints?

Thank you and best regards.

    @Roberto
    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.
    You may check SmsAdminUI.log for more details.
    SmsAdminUI.log records information about the operation of the Configuration Manager console.
    Usually it's located in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Configuration Manager\AdminConsole\AdminUILog".
    And after you reopen the console, can you create a Migration Job now?

    Hello.

    No, that Windows doesn't show up.
    The old SCCM is: System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager SP1, Site version: 5.00.8239.1000
    The new MECM is: Version 2002, Site version 5.0.8968.1000

    Any more hints?

    Hi.

    I enabled verbose logging, and here you can find attached the log file.
    The last run (after enabling verbose) was run on 12/072020 17:57:44.

    Any more hints?

    Thank you for your help and best regards.45670-smsadminui.log

    Hi

    have you ever found a solution? I've done many migrations in the past, but now on clicking next in the "Create Migration Wizard" the Console crashes (v2211)...
