Dragon Age: Awakening Physical Copy with Dragon Age: Origins Digitial Copy [PS3]

Some time ago, I purchased Dragon Age: Origins as a digital download on the PSN store. Recently, I found the physical copy of Dragon Age: Origins Awakening for a good price and purchased it. Upon installing the Awakening disc on PS3, the game is asking for the Origins disc, which I do not have, since the original was a digital purchase. Is there any way to install Awakening on PS3 if the original is digital and the expansion is a physical copy?

    I believe it is not possible ☹️ I would advise you to contact an Advisor to see if they can assist with that issue though.

    I recently bought DA:O on the psn and was trying to play awakenings on the disc but when I put the awakenings disc in it was saying there was no DA:O saved data. I have already beat DA;O, I was wondering if anybody knew how to fix this? I rather not have to buy awakening all over again.

    Here I am, some years later of that post, having the SAME problem... Doesn't EA really care for their costumers that much? It is absurd that someone from EA even has the courage to come to the post and say "I believe (BELIEVE! DOESN'T EVEN KNOW!) you can't." How can't I? Is it your game or not? Isn't it the same game? Is it written somewhere "Don't be the next fool to buy the physical copy of Dragon Age Awakening after having the digital copy because you won't be able to play it"?
    I demand a better answer, an explanation and an URGENT solution for this or I want my money back! And no, that's not the retailer's fault, it is EA's. I want the money back from you if you can't make it work!

    I'm having this same issue and havent found a solution.  The whole reason I purchased and played through origins again was to play Awakening... and now it doesnt work.
