One database isn't replicating between two servers
When replication occurs correctly between two servers but one database doesn't replicate correctly, these symptoms might occur: To correct this problem, try these tips.

1. Check if the database ACL is set up incorrectly. The message "Access control is set to not allow replication" in the log file indicates that the servers do not have the correct access to perform replication. Give the servers enough access in the database ACL to replicate changes. A server must have:


2. Check the log file for an "Unable to copy document" or similar message. This message indicates a corrupted database. To correct the problem, do one of the following: 3. Check the log file for a "Replication is disabled" message, which indicates that the database is not enabled for replication. To enable replication of the source database, choose File - Replication - Options for this Application - Other and deselect "Temporarily disable replication."

4. Check if the "Enforce a consistent Access Control List" option has been set on a replica. Sometimes replication cannot occur because this option has been set, but the server storing the replica lacks the appropriate access to replicate the ACL. If this is the case, give the server Manager access in the database ACL.

5. Make sure there have been recent changes to the database. Replication occurs only when there are changes to replicate.
