Hi, I am trying to import data from one instance of an existing multi-site g2 installation into gallery3. I've installed g3 into a new subdomain, and the old installation is elsewhere on the same server: New install: gallery.mydomain.com I've tried passing the path to the old installation into the import module, and it says that the directory doesn't exist. I thought that it might be a permissions issue, so I copied the old directory into a sub-directory of the new install, and pointed the import module at this directory. This also fails, saying that the directory isn't a valid gallery2 installation. Can anyone offer any advice? Thanks Andy |

You need a working G2 install
and the path should be a full system path ie. /home/username/mydomain.com/public_html/gallery

My g2 install is working fine, and I am passing it a full path.
The path I'm passing it to is the instance of a g2 multisite installation - the location that contains the following files and directories:
config.php
embed.php
g2data
index.php
main.php
phpinfo.php
upgrade
Note that this path is part of a different domain on the shared server (as I said in the original post).
Previously it was saying that this path did not exist. However, now it's generating a 500 server error.
Any suggestions?

You'll have to look at server logs to see what a 500 error is about.

There's nothing appearing in the server's error_log file.
Any other suggestions?

sometimes you can watch the net tab in firebug to see the response. Or fiddler2

Well, the response is a 500. I won't give you any more information than that if you watch the actual traffic.
