[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Archon -> ArchivesSpace Migration Failure Message

Edgar,

I am assisting Andrea on this process. The credentials do indeed belong to
an account with administrative permissions for this Archon instance, and
are valid/correct. The link to the Archon source is also valid (we've tried
variations with protocol and paths just to make sure) as the migration tool
proceeds with the first bit of authentication after successfully connecting
to the Archon source, but ultimately fails and presents the error
previously mentioned.

I managed to nab a copy of the log before it spits out the error almost
instantly. Here's what it says:

Administrator authenticated ...
Finding Accession Records Repositories ...
Getting records for: ?p=core/accessions&batch_start=1
No accessions found ...

I hope this helps, thank you.
