Description:
I am trying to migrate (with the downloaded proper Migration Toolkit) a MySql Database from my site to my local DB (MySQL also) and I get the following error:

file .\source\myx_grt_value.c: line 3188: assertion `dict != NULL` failed

the line changes back and forth in an endless loop

This happedes with only one schema, everything works perfectly with the other ones. Please help. It's urgent!

How to repeat:
I have no ideea why it does this and in what conditions.

Suggested fix:
???

I can NOT provide an error log, because I don't think Migration Toolkit reaches to the point of writing any log file, and if it does, well, I can't find them!

It just loops endlessly from one row back to the other. Endlessly. This happends at the "reverse engineering" part, after I pick the Database (source schemata), phase 2 in the left graphical walk-trough (screen-shots attached).

I repeat: it happends only with one schemata, the other one works fine.

All I could save from inside the program is the "application state" XML, wich contains my passwords and site info. Is this file necessary to determening why this error occurs?

Migration Toolkit sais to press "Advanced" to show the detailed process, but no button appears, just the following message:

The message in the loop is (only the line number varies back and forth):
file .\source\myx_grt_value.c: line 3188: assertion `dict != NULL`
failed
