Problem importing full repository?! Alfresco 2.1.0

[zeljko_gavrilov]

I need to move alfresco 2.1 from one machine to another. Also I need to copy everything from old repository to new one. I followed next instructions to export repository and import it on onother host, but bootstrap failed.

1. I exported full repository (package name 'export')
2. I created new database alfresco, granted database user…
3. repository-context-sample.xml renamed to repository-context.xml
4. Set hibernate dialect …
5. removed alf_data
6. copied 5 exported packages plus .xml files from previous alfresco to new one in the folder: $alfresco_home/tomcat/shared/classes/alfesco/extension/restore/
7. Started alfresco ./alfresco start

And follow errors occured: Could someone help WHAT TO DO?!

A full export of the DB plus a copy of the alf_data directory is all the data required to copy/restore any instance of Alfresco. Make sure you export the FULL db (you have to select a checkbox for this in the MySQL admin console) and take the entire alf_data structure too.

Thanks,

Kevin

Is there any problem in doing a cross-platform copy of the alf_data directoy? (from a Windows to a Linux for example)

Is there a recommended way of doing this copy?

Thanks

[kevinr]

The alf_data folder and filenames are generated the same for all systems (year/date/time for the folder structure and GUID for the filename). There should be no problems coping between systems.

Thanks,

Kevin
