Hi,<br><br>I have a client whose site resides on at Zope 2.7.4-0 instance with<br>COREBlog 1.0 installed. He has 300+ blog entries we need to migrate to a<br>Zope 2.9/Plone 2.5/COREBlog2 setup.<br><br>I tried the following (read the read me.. installed the files.. added
<br>the port at the end of the url)<br><a href="http://coreblog.org/trac/coreblog2/browser/trunk/migration">http://coreblog.org/trac/coreblog2/browser/trunk/migration</a><br><br>I get:<br><br>start!<br>{}<br><br>and nothing else..anyone successfully exported entries from COREBlog
1.0 and imported into COREBlog2?<br><br>It's important that I'm able to migrate the former entries as intact as possible.<br><br>any suggestions? maybe something I need to do on the new instance side??<br><br><br>Donna M. Snow
</blockquote><div><br><br>I had the same problem. It was awhile ago, though and my memory is dull. IIRC make sure the port script is to be "Script(Python)" , not "Controler Python Script". Here are some random notes I dug up:
<br><br>port - the migration script - is in portal_skins/custom<br><br>- COREBlog_Export - the exported text data - is also in<br>portal_skins/custom<br> Be sure not to include ".txt" extension in ID.<br><br>- Your COREBlog2 URL might be
<a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://localhost:8080/test212/" target="_blank">http://localhost:8080/test212/</a><br><br>- Then access <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://localhost:8080/test212/port" target="_blank">
http://localhost:8080/test212/port</a> with web browser.<br><br>And I think the thing that really got for me was that I was using the export button on the old blog, and not the custom export script:<br><br>You need to export using another export script. It is in migration
<br>directory, named 'coreblogexport.dtml.txt'.<br><br></div>HTH,<br><br>nick<br></div><br>-- <br>Nick Owen<br>WiKID Systems, Inc.<br>404.962.8983 (desk)<br>404.542.9453 (cell)<br><a href="http://www.wikidsystems.com">http://www.wikidsystems.com
