Migration Issue

I did a clean install of dolphin 7 into a subdirectory of my website. My next step I installed the data migration module. Now when I go to Modules/Data Migration, I receive:

 

Object not found!

The requested URL was not found on this server. The link on the referring page seems to be wrong or outdated. Please inform the author of that page about the error.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

Error 404

 

any ideas?

 

Also, I noticed that under the section where I'm supposed to install modules, I see things such as:

 

Articles

Blog

Chat

Events

Groups

Photos

Forum......

 

These were all "features" that I already had in 6.1.6. They were not extra "modules" that I had to install. But in dolphin 7 those "features" appear to be modules that I have to install separately. My question is, since I am doing a data migration, will that migration tool automatically transfer over those features from 6.1.6? Or do I need to actually install those "modules" in 7.0.2 then perform the data migration afterwards?

Install all of the modules. The avatar module and photos module will be needed  for photos.

In D7. You can pick and choose features. Which are installable modules. But you should start the migration with all of them installed.

But your error seems to indicate your sites .htaccess file for D7 is not being processed. Make sure the .htaccess file from the root of the dolphin zip file was uploaded to the root of the D7 site. It's a commonly missed file because on some operating systems, it's hidden.

You were right! It was the .htaccess file. thanks.

Now when I started migrating profiles, it just sits there "in process". I checked through MySQL to see if any data has been imported and the table still only has 1 record....which was admin.

Sounds like you did not setup the cron jobs as part of the D7 install. Either that, or the cron you setup is not working.

I think you might be right. But I don't see in the migration instructions what exactly goes in the crontab file. The only entry I did was the one that was required at the end of the dolphin 7 install.

Thats the only one you need. So if you set it up, then it's not working correctly.

Crap. I guess I'll check with a linux forum to see why my cronjobs are not working properly.

 

Thanks.

You can try to run the cron manually and see if that is actually what the problem is.

From a shell go to the periodic folder and run the command php cron.php

Or you can temporarily remove the .htaccess from the periodic folder and run the cron from a browser. http://www.yoursite.com/d7folder/periodic/cron.php

Note, cron may seem like it exits quickly, but it starts other processes, so wait a few minutes to check on the status of the migration. It may take a while if you have a lot of profiles.

I ran cron.php and it errors out with

 

"Notice: Undefined variable: sModulesUrl in /srv/www/rhino/d7/flash/modules/video_comments/inc/constants.inc.php on line 49"
