When trying to import from my G1 gallery, I get the following errors:

Quote:

Error (ERROR_BAD_PARAMETER) : Missing or not readable file: /home/minton/public_html/galleries/albums/UT2K3/photos.dat

* in modules/migrate/classes/Gallery1DataParser.class at line 69 (gallerystatus::error)
* in modules/migrate/classes/Gallery1DataParser.class at line 264 (gallery1dataparser::loadfile)

* in main.php at line 170 (confirmimportcontroller::handlerequest)
* in main.php at line 47
* in main.php at line 40

I've looked through the albums subfolders, and I don't have any photos.dat files whatsoever.

Any ideas on how to proceed at this point?

I don't think it's documented anywhere, but I think that the G1 migrater can only handle G1.4+. I'd upgrade to the latest G1 and then try again (it's a good idea to upgrade anyway since there are a ton of security+feature enhancements).

With probably 1000+ photos, I'm a little reluctant, but if you're sure the upgrade will work I'll give it a go.

Is there a FAQ on upgrading from my version to the latest G1 version?

I'm having the same issues. I just upgraded my G1 to the latest CVS version, and I still didn't get the upgrade process to create the missing photos.dat file. Here is some info from my system which hopefully help out:

FWIW, I got the photos.dat files created somehow during the upgrade. The upgrade went smoothly, thanks for the link.

However, the import into G2 still didn't. It imported some albums, then gave the following errors:

Error (ERROR_BAD_PATH):

* in file modules/core/classes/GalleryPhotoItem.class at line 122 (gallerystatus::error)
* in file modules/core/classes/helpers/GalleryItemHelper_medium.class at line 206 (galleryphotoitem::create)

digiital, after you upgraded, did you visit and/or upgrade all of the albums in G1 individually?

BillMinton, could you send me your G1 and G2 urls? Do you have any idea which item from G1 failed?

Let me know. Thanks!

I didn't visit them all. If there was an option during the upgrade to do that, I'm sure I would have chosen it though.

G1 - http://www.themintons.org/galleries
G2 - http://www.themintons.org/gallery2

G2 got to here - http://www.themintons.org/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core:ShowItem&g2_itemId=286&g2_page=59

Corresponding G1 page here - http://www.themintons.org/galleries/jadas_first_pictures?page=59

I just noticed...look at the image it failed on. It's not showing up for some reason.

That's the first time I've ever seen any of my images just not work. I wonder if the G1 upgrade did that?

Uh oh....I just looked on the FTP site, and that file is actually gone. That concerns me.

Edit - I just looked at some site backups going back to 12/23/04, and that image wasn't in them. I'm not sure what happened to it, but it wasn't the result of any of this.

Whenever I finish the on-the-fly status stuff I might be able to do something to ignore those errors along the way. Until then, we have to count on up-to-date, unbroken G1 installs.

That makes sense. I just wanted to be sure I updated my post to reflect that the problem wasn't Gallery per say. Software is difficult enough to write without people adding errors to the error list that don't really belong there.
