Yet Another Xenforo Import Topic

Support
1

I have followed the following tops to a tee, yet I am stil having issues. I think I am missing something super obvious, so I am hoping a second, of third set of eyes will help.

Import

Running Ubuntu 1804, with a functional base installation of Discourse, and have followed the steps outlined in the thread above. I am so close I can feel it.

When I get to the step that requires me to run

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec ruby script/import_scripts/xenforo.rb

The following error is returned.

Traceback (most recent call last):

 1: from script/import_scripts/xenforo.rb:3:in `<main>'

script/import_scripts/xenforo.rb:3:in `require’: cannot load such file – mysql2 (LoadError)

If I check the gemfile in the /var/www/discourse directory, I can that mysql2 is loaded

Did you get any errors when you ran the bundle install --no-deployment ?

No errors, just a warning not to run it as root. Here is the output.

root@DearestBare-VM-app:/var/www/discourse# bundle install --no-deployment
Don't run Bundler as root. Bundler can ask for sudo if it is needed, and installing your bundle as root will break this application for all non-root users on this machine.

Hmm. I don’t see mysql in the list there… I think it should be included if I remember correctly from when I’ve done this. You didn’t by chance rebuild the container at some point? That will undo these changes that you make. Double-check your Gemfile to make sure mysql is in there.

You were %100 correct, once I got the mysql gem loaded, the importer took off like a rocket.

I think the original topic is way outdated now, so I think I will write a new one. For example, the command below no longer works.

sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client libmysqlclient-dev

We need to use

sudo apt-get install default-mysql-server default-mysql-client default-libmysqlclient-dev

I appreciate you taking the time to respond and assis here.

We had similar problems during our migration (with mysql2) and found this tutorial helpful, as I recall:
