Bulk import not uploading or taking forever?

I'm using the 2.1RC and I just created a web project. I'm doing a Bulk import from the alfresco-wsf-website.war.

When I did for the 1st and second time, the uploading was taking forever so I interrupted. Then I browsed the website and I notice there are files missing. So I deleted the web project and create another one. But when I click "finish" in creating a new web project, there's this error like "check the system error below: null" (in a yellow section) or something like that. Then I clicked finish again and it just refreshed the page.

So I restarted the tomcat and it generated a bunch of nullExceptions errors and couldn't start Alfresco anymore. So I uninstalled and reinstalled again. Now I'm doing the same as before except I'm not interrupting the upload. The thing is it's been 30 minutes and I'm stuck at the uploading page with the process animation. The browser's status bar is always empty and says "Waiting for localhost…". I see no errors output in the tomcat during the uploading.

So I took a chance and pressed cancel. There are files that are uploaded but when I preview the site, it gives me

HTTP Status 404 - /

type Status report

message /

description The requested resource (/) is not available


So what's going on?

This was a known issue in 2.1RC1 (there are several other forum threads on this) it has been fixed for the next 2.1 release (a few days away) - for now you can import into Staging (as admin user) that will work fine.

Thanks,

Oh ok, thanks.

But when I bulk import the alfresco-wsf-website.war, there's this error:

Please correct the errors below then click OK.
A system error happened during the operation: Could not execute JDBC batch update

It's only doing with the Alfresco's 2.1 alfresco-wsf-website.war. Not the 2.0 (alfresco-sample-website.war). I can use this one I guess, for the time being.

Are you using MySQL not the HSQL default? As the basic HSQL db is only really for initial testing and can have issues.

Thanks,

Oh ok. Yeah, I'm using the HSQLDB. I'll switch to MySQL soon.

Thank you.
