V5 to V9 migration issue

mijim

Hello,
I'm trying to migrate from V5 to V9 on a Joomla 5 install.
I checked all options in the migration panel, but it gets stuck when importing the lists from V5. All it does then is removing the default list that comes with the installation. When starting again and skipping the 'Lists' checkbox, everything is imported correctly, although for obvious reasons the users are not linked to any list.
Could it be the categories that I have in my V5 lists and that does not seem to exist in V9 ????
Any cue to solve this?
Many thanks
Antoine

Hi,

Please try to run a database integrity check in both v5 and v9. You'll find it in Acymailing->Configuration->Security in the Advanced section at the bottom of the page. After that try to run the migration again.

Hi,
Thank you, but that did not help.
After testing extensively on a cloned version of the site it appeared that when deleting some lists from V5, I could then migrate everything in V9. I then came to realise that the lists that were fit to be migrated were those for which no languages were defined in V5, or set to 'all' in the database. I updated all lists straight in the V5 database and set the column 'languages' to 'all', and bingo, the migration process went through like a charm, including the subscriptions of the users... Pfffiouu.
Perhaps something should be updated accordingly in the migration script???
Best,
Antoine
