have you any luck with "GalleryEntityHelper_simple.class at line 39" error?
Yes! I just found the problem right now when it came up for me. There is a line in the file "ConfirmCmImport.inc" where the module being called is incorrectly written as "migrate" rather than the "cmmigrate" used in the rest of the script. The line looks something like this (at least I think it was this one.):
list ($ret, $module) = GalleryCoreApi::loadPlugin('module', 'migrate');
You just need to change the 'migrate' at the end to 'cmmigrate' then save the file and replace it and you are good to go.
I read the whole post concerning the import from coppermine to gallery, I've follow all the steps and I cant seem to get it to work, I've download the file in question via the plugins Repository in the admin area, I've turn it on as well.
I chose my path to were coppermine site sits, pick an ablum to import, it opens up and stops straight away, all i get is a browser error.
I looked at the galley and all it did was create the ablum, no thumbs or images.
Looks like you are getting stuck in a redirect loop, not sure what would cause this within that plugin without being able to reproduce the error. mindless would probably have further insight.
BTW you can also import from local server. Gallery will keep the file structure.
IE shows no detailed error, aside the basic browser error as shown by lingate. Trying it with Firefox shows an error which relates to a problem someone else posted and was fixed by:
Edit: ConfirmCmImport.inc
list ($ret, $module) = GalleryCoreApi::loadPlugin('module', 'migrate');
Edi: "migrate" to "cmmigrate" - calling the scrip incorrectly.
Should work now, going to test with lots of albums now.
Help! I've been a Coppermine user for years, but lately it's been really buggy and I'd like to migrate over to Gallery. I have Gallery 2 installed on my site, and have downloaded and installed the migration plugin. However, I can't seem to get it to work. I'm getting this error:
The path that you entered is invalid.
Can someone help me out? My Coppermine directory is located here: http://mywebsitename.com/coppermine - but when I try any version of this path, I still get the 'invalid path' error.
I am looking to convert a Coppermine 1.4.1 gallery to Gallery 2.2.4. I have read this thread, and also this one: http://gallery.menalto.com/node/72207, but cannot find an active link
to the 'cmmigrate' tool that I think I'd like to try.
Can anybody here please assist with a download link, and/or any documentation that is pertinant to the script's use, as I have very little knowledge in this area. My Coppermine
gallery is very small and has not been modified except for a different theme and logo.
If this is not the correct place for this enquiry, I would be grateful if somebody could point me towards any other resources that may help - otherwise, I'll have to to the
conversion manually.
Also, any tutorials on how to 'theme' Gallery 2 and insert my own logo, etc., would also be greatly appreciated.
Not sure why you'd want to migrate to Gallery 2.2.4? 2.26 was the top of that series, and 2.3 is the current release.
Thanks for that, suprsidr. I actually just found that script, too.
The reason for migrating to Gallery 2.2.4 is because my Web Host offers it as an Auto-Install option and I have just installed it.
In your opinion, would it be better for me to upgrade that installation to 2.3 before I run the script?
Will the script (cmmigrate) even work with 2.3?
If you think I should go to 2.3, is it an easy process to upgrade from 2.2.4?
I really appreciate your assistance, as I know virtually nothing about this stuff, although I am a computer 'techie' so I'm not
entirely without ability... ;-)
Well, I don't think any work has been done on cmmigrate in quite some time.
If you've already installed 2.2.4 you might want to migrate before upgrading to 2.3.
Hello sup'... the script worked very well for me after making the necessary edit:
Quote:

"cmmigrate" used in the rest of the script. The line looks something like this:
list ($ret, $module) = GalleryCoreApi::loadPlugin('module', 'migrate'); (Change 'migrate' to 'cmmigrate and copy it back to the web server.)]
I have used the 'cmmigrate' script to copy the images from my Coppermine gallery installation to the Gallery 2.2.4 installation, although I have yet to work out how to create 'groups' and set permissions for them (the albums are only visible by 'admin' so far), and to 'theme' and upgrade the Gallery installation to the latest 2.3 version.
What I would like to do now, is copy the table information from my Coppermine MySQL database to the Gallery 2 database. Can you please advise if there is a way to do this from within phpMyAdmin, or should I run a script called 'CopyDatabase' that I have found on the Sourceforge phpMyAdmin web site?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Well, after that nice little break of over 4 months, it appears that this topic is 'dead'. This is unfortunate as I'm still stuck as per my previous two posts.
I'm beginning to think that I'll have to ask my users to re-apply for membership, thus creating the MySQL database form scratch.
Does anybody read this now (he asks hopefully)? Can anybody recommend some resources for me to study on this issue?
I'm not sure what you expect to achieve by "copying the database"
Gallery uses a different structure so any extra tables you import would be useless.
So what information are you trying to import?
Have you learned how to change permissions?
edit album -> permissions
Oh, Hello! Wow.. you're still around, eh? Good to see. Er, as I have said, this 'web' stuff is a little
over my head, but I just would like to copy my existing users and their passwords from one MySQL database (old Coppermine),
to the new database for Gallery2.
No, I haven't got as far as looking at album permissions. The albums I imported using the script all seem to belong to the
admin user of the Gallery2 installation as I have no members yet. Don't I need to move my users/members from the old Coppermine
MySQL database to the new Gallery2 database in order to actually have some members to which to assign permissions?
I hope you now have an idea of what I'm trying to do, because I'm flat out figuring it out myself. ;-)
Is this alot of users?
cmmigrate placed ownership of all items imported to admin, so you would need to manually remap those ownership permissions anyways.
For 8 users, no need to bother writing a big user migration script. Just add them manually. Or let them join normally.
Personally I'd go with the latter and activate the user album module so each user gets their own album automatically.
Then you could easily move their previous items into their new album.
Now we're getting somewhere. When you say there is an option to 'add them manually', does that mean that I can un-encrypt their passwords from the MySQL database so I can use the same ones by joining them as members to the Gallery2 installation?
I have a successful migration from coppermine to gallery2... almost. I also have the problem where the albums are only viewable by the admin account. I have changed the permissions so that the group everybody can see them, but nothing happens.
What have I missed?
Group Permissions
Group name Permission
Everybody [rating] All access
Everybody [core] View resized version(s)
Everybody [core] View original version
Everybody [comment] Add comments
Site Admins All access
User Permissions
User name Permission
admin All access
Group permission added successfully --- I get this after I add View Item to Everybody, but then it doesn't show up in the Permissions listing. And it still won't show up to guests...
I went back and added View All Versions and that seemed to fix it.
If you're viewing the thumb, resized and original, you're viewing all versions. Glad that worked.

Is this an embedded coppermine?
Last I knew that did not work.
A little more specific.
What information is required when I ask for help in the forums?

NO. it's not, its not embedded with Nuke or Post nuke or any other CMS, if that's what you mean.
I am, that's all I get a browser error, http://gallery.menalto.com/files/error_5.jpg
The cmmigrate doesn't seem to work in my case, I've installed, then I've follow the steps, all It does is create one Album.
I have about 900 plus images with Albums with in Ablums.
The error reads if you didn't look at the image, says, Line 70, Unkown runtime error, code 0, main.php

I have the exact same problem as Lingate,
I am using:
Gallery2 2.2.5
Database: MySQL 5.0.45-community-nt
PHP Version: 5.2.1 (Zend: 2.2.0)
Windows 2003 Server with IIS6
Any further ideas on how to get this working? I am going to have a play around and see what I can do and will post if I find a way to resolve it.

Would it be possible for you or somebody to edit that file and then re-zip it for download on this page: http://gallery.menalto.com/files/cmmigrate050_0.zip ??
It would seem the logical thing to do to avoid idiots such as myself having to edit it half-way through the migration.. ;-)
Now I have to attempt 'pimping' and upgrading my Gallery... fun, fun, fun!! ;-)
Thanks for your help. Cheers.

1) I only have about 8 users. It's a private site.
2) This means nothing to me. I'm trying to convey that I need step-by-step help here. I'm obviously not very clear in my request.

You cannot un-encrypy their password, but you can make up a new one and email it to them - they can change it after they login.
