@wmiadmin

I was having the same problem. It looks like some of @Vincent’s changes were Mantis 1.1.x-specific. I reverted his DATE_FORMAT changes, since Mantis 1.2.x seems to use UNIX timestamps, and the “‘created_on’ cannot be null” error went away. Yay!

Hi,

This is a great script

I’m testing it on a huge Mantis database and found:

- Database value lft,rgt can’t be NULL so
UPDATE issues SET lft = 0 WHERE lft IS NULL
UPDATE issues SET rgt = 0 WHERE rgt IS NULL
- Databse value root_id must point to someone or it self (not NULL)
UPDATE issues SET root_id = id WHERE root_id = NULL

You can use it with Bitnami if the standard linux console is used and
the host is set for 127.0.0.1 (not localhost)

Regards Peter

Hi David

You need to install DBIx::Simple from CPAN. I am not sure what bitnami is, but assuming your include paths, have a look whether there is a /opt/bitnami/perl/bin/cpan executable. If so, run /opt/bitnami/perl/bin/cpan i DBIx::Simple.

Hi,

It seems to fail loading DBIx, i’m using the bitnami stack for redmine, and i’ve already imported perl lib as described.

Here the stack trace :
Can’t locate DBIx/Simple.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /opt/bitnami/git/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux /opt/bitnami/git/lib/site_perl/5.8.8 /opt/bitnami/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux /opt/bitnami/perl/lib/5.8.8/i686-linux /opt/bitnami/perl/lib/5.8.8 /opt/bitnami/perl/lib/5.8.8/i686-linux /bitnami/rubystack-linux/output/perl/lib/5.8.8/i686-linux /bitnami/rubystack-linux/output/perl/lib/5.8.8 /bitnami/rubystack-linux/output/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux /bitnami/rubystack-linux/output/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.8 /bitnami/rubystack-linux/output/perl/lib/site_perl .) at ./mantis2redmine.pl line 86.

Any tips ?

Thx
