Re: PloneArticle content migration to version 4.0.2
Hi all
I have managed to migrate to PloneArticle
4.02.
Actually I had to workaround quite a number of
issues.
I'm just reporting how I solved it, if it helps
anybody.
First of all, IMHO the article tool should not be a
portal type, so I changed its registration and the related stuff. Don't think
this affects anything though, but that's how I started up

(actually I still
have to finish with the configlet)
I crashed against two major issues:
1. renaming an existing article was going to cause
an error "AttributeError: class Dummy has no
attribute '__new__'
" which prevented the action from succeeding, and
this would in turn prevent any exported site to be imported again. However,
copying the article was succeding.
2. the reference catalog was corrupted, could
not get rebuilt any longer.
So I wrote a script which was copying and
reindexing all existing PloneArticles in new instances (had some troubles
because I had multilingual sites, but the principle worked). This solved issue
n. 1, and for some sites actually also issue n.2, as the reference catalog
rebuilt succesfully.
To fix the remaining issue, I removed the existing
reference_catalog instance and reinstalled archetypes. Then rebuilt the
reference_catalog.

Hi
guys,
I have successfuly upgraded PloneArticle from version 3.2.3 to
4.0.2 but content migration isn't working. Well, it always fail on migrate. I
was googling hard to find a solution, searching through mailing lists and even
looked to plonearticle svn repository for newer version of problematic files
(those showed in force upgrade log). I found few posts, people complaining
about this problem and suggest to wait for new version. Is there anyone who
successfully migrated articles to 4.0.x
version?
Thanks,
Peter
