From Gallery 3 to Gallery 2

TAZattitude — Fri, 30 Nov 2012 09:53:11 +0000

How would I transfer all info and pics from Gallery 3 back to Gallery 2?

I have about 19K pics in Gallery 2 and have it nicely integrated with Drupal 6. The Gallery 3 is just a stand alone Gallery right now.
So I would like to put all info and pics in Gallery 2. I'd like to do this in bulk and not one by one.

Both galleries are up and running.
I have access to phpmyadmin if needed

Importing from Gallery1 only takes 420 of 3000 pictures.

G1 to G2, G1 broken after server change (NOVICE)

vorhesecom — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 15:09:42 +0000

I changed servers and had them migrate my G1, which I've had for about 8-10 years, and now it's broken with all these errors. I can login but not add pictures.

I asked what happened and they said:
"1) Upgrade your gallery to the latest version or at least so it support PHP 5.3.X"

Back to Gallery 2 from 3?

gabstero — Thu, 07 Jun 2012 19:54:38 +0000

Ok guys, been there, done that.

Decided I didn't like Gallery3 since it's not supported by the major addons and simple ones like Gallery Remote, so I want to go back to Gallery 2. Problem is that I deleted the previous Gallery 2 install (including the DB).

Are there instructions on how this can be done?

thanks a ton!

Help migrating/upgrading

radiosity — Mon, 04 Jun 2012 14:57:23 +0000

Hello - we switched to a new host last year and have been trying to migrate a Gallery installation. The developer who set up our original server is no longer with us and our new host does not have much experience with Gallery. The installation (which was Gallery 2) was working fine on the old host before we moved it.

After migration, we are getting the upgrade screen when I go to the Gallery2 directory. When I try to complete the upgrade the errors (attached file) are shown.

Need .htaccess for mod_rewrite for G1>G2 migration...

Moving G1 to G2, but placing G1 albums ina new subalbum

brianjd — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 05:27:10 +0000

I want to place my old G1 galleries in a subfolder Urloffen in G2, but I want to preserve the old http://www.amason.net/gallery/... urls.

It should not be that hard to simply redirect any url from "/gallery/%1" to "gallery2/v/Urloffen/%1".
Tell me there is away to do this in G2. Otherwise I'm going to have to override all the G2 security and
