Hi guy’s, I sucssesufuly migrated Xenforo DB with 1500 memebr and ~75.000 posts to new servere where is Discourse. One question about attachment… from script I can see that if attachments folder exist then script will do import, my question is where I need to put attac from old server in: a) In Docker part of server (somewhere) b) In origin location /var/discourse/shared/standalone/tmp/attachments ?

You put the files wherever you want that is accessible from the machine doing the import and put that path here: ATTACHMENT_DIR = '/tmp/attachments' If you’re running inside a docker container, and put it under var/discourse/shared/standalone/tmp/attachments then you’d use /shared/tmp/attachments for the path. You can check by looking for the files when you’re inside the container.

Okay Jay thank you for information, I’m just doing clean install this time with attachments folder setup, I will put then in /shared/tmp/attachments and get back here with results. One quick question… is there anyway to import password for account’s too?

Can someone look where is problem? root@my-app:/var/www/discourse# RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec ruby script/import_scripts/xenforo.rb Loading existing groups... Loading existing users...

I’ve found it… problem is that a folder containing attachments for import MUST be inside Docker app in patch /var/www/discourse/…/tmp/attachments Now it’s OK script is going on, it will finish in ~1.5h edit: It seems that again import attachments not working… im currently at 78% of import, and in every post where we had some picture or attachments stay [ATTACH]9788[/ATTACH] and number between tags and number of uploaded so next one is [ATTACH]9789[/ATTACH]… Any help with this will be glad :confused:

If you imported any posts before you properly set the attachment_dir, you’ll need to delete all posts and start the import again.

Unfortunately import is done right now and I dont see in log any information regardings attachments? [2019-11-11%2022_58_28-mc%20%5Broot%40foss-app%5D__]

[תמונה]Migrate a XenForo forum to Discourse Unfortunately import is done right now and I dont see in log any information regardings attachments? [תמונה] pfaffman: you’ll need to delete all posts and start the import again. If you ran the import script and the attachment directory didn’t exist it skipped the attachments.

I didn’t do that… I’ve runned fresh import with attachments in place.

I don’t think that I can help you here. If you have a budget, please see Redirecting… Here is my last piece of advice: I’m fairly certain that the attachments are not where the script could find them and that you will need to delete everything and start again. Before you run the script again, from inside the folder, you should type ls /tmp/attachments where /tmp/attachments is whatever you put in the ATTACHMENT_DIR = '/tmp/attachments' line. If it doesn’t list the attachments, you need to keep trying to figure out where they are.
