How to migrate?

Post by pippus »

Hi,
I have a joomla 1.5.x site with Phoca Gallery v.1.7.0 in place ( I know, is very old).
Now I need to migrate to Joomla 2.5.x (using jUpgrade).
Which is the right procedure to do this?
I mean the procedure to migrate from Phoca Gallery 1.7.0 to Phoca Gallery 3.2.0 and to maintain the existing galleries.
First of all, I think that I need to upgrade Phoca from 1.7.0 to Phoca 2.8.1 (on my J1.5.x), then run jUpgrade.
But the jUpgrade, I think, doesn't migrate Phoca Gallery content.

Thanks

see: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/50-phoca/ ... -joomla-25
you'll need to upgrade to a more recent version of pg first.

-> Ok, I upgraded to Phoca Gallery 2.8.1
-> Run jUpgrade;
-> Installed Phoca Gallery 3.2.0 and choose "Install" not "Upgrade";
-> Import sql file data;
-> Run sql queries to update language.

All steps seems to be fine, but in Components > Phoca Gallery > Images, I see that some of the images are duplicated 5 times ( 5 thumbnails) with 5 different ID's !
And on the fronend, that gallery doesn't displaying all images.
What I'm missing ?

Thanks

Hi, so there is still some problem. :idea: if you export the images and then import them (done by one human), then in fact there cannot be other than human error :idea: I don't expect, that e.g. phpMyAdmin will add some image queries more times, etc. :idea: :-(

If you look at the source html in frontend, are the image there?
