Using git trunk from Sunday, and then updating and trying again today, importing my wife's gallery 2.2.4 to gallery trunk fails. In /admin/g2_import, everything goes fine until the import progress bar comes up, and then it just stops in 'Starting up...' It appears that the name of a single album is imported, so database access and all that is fine, but even a couple of hours later nothing else has happened. This is a fairly small gallery (a couple of hundred pictures at most?), and I even tweaked the thumbnail sizes to match, so speed shouldn't be that much of an issue, I wouldn't think.
I'm using git trunk on my own site on the same server with no problems, and g2_import worked fine for that install when I used it several months ago, so it is unlikely (though not impossible) that the problem is related to libraries, system php version, etc.
Any pointers on debugging? I'm not seeing anything useful in var/logs/, so I'm guessing I'm looking in the right place.
Thanks!

Try upgrading to 2.3.1 then doing the import again.

Sadly after upgrading the old install to 2.3.1 + and the new install to git from today it still seems to hang/stop in the same place. Any suggestions on debugging?

You're sure you got the latest code from here:
http://github.com/gallery/gallery3/zipball/master
And followed the upgrade instructions from here:

git pull'd from head, and ran 'php index.php upgrade', yes. I guess next week I can try to nuke everything and start from scratch, but like I said, any debugging tips (where are the logs for the importer, for example?) would be appreciated.

<gallery3>/var/logs i where the logs should reside.

All I see in those logs is:
<?php defined('SYSPATH') or die('No direct script access.'); ?>
No other log entries. Do I have to turn on logging? Are there other places I should look to for debugging information?
(Note that it still happens with rc1.)

Sigh, sadly a complete nuking of everything (database and source) appears to have cleared this up. No idea what significant thing was the problem, but I guess we'll never know now...

Others: Please do a git pull to a experimantal version. More error reporting & debug info has been added to the G2 import, so we get a better idea as to why it is failing.
