Copy Database Wizard fails from 2008 to 2014

I am trying to migrate a 2008 R2 (SP1) database with one secondary data file to a separate 2014 server using the Copy Database Wizard from the 2014 server, and connect to both SQL engines on that server. It consistently fails on step 5. I'm logging to a text file and the error I see is as follows:InnerException-->Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.StackTrace: at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection, Action`1 wrapCloseInAction)I created a test database on the same 2008 server, also with a secondary data file, and it migrated flawlessly using the CDW. I am using the copy object method in all cases, and not the detach/attach method.Can anyone provide any insight into this issue? I would prefer to perform this without any downtime on the source (production) database.Thanks.Tom
