Forums 2.0.x to CS 1.0 Migration Tool

Filed under: Migration Tools

This is the latest version of a CS Community/Telligent migration tool that can be used to migrate Forums 2.0.x data to Community Server 1.0. The converter was written by CBR (Mario Sobral) and also includes some input from ScottW and others.

Has anyone used this? Looks like a real find for migrating our site, but more info. would help....

Overall, this does a pretty good job of migrating stuff. It doesn't migrate roles (roles that I added weren't migrated), user rights (my admins didn't get migrated), or Forum permissions (private forums were now public).

I also ran into a problem where my personal user (user id 2 in the old database wasn't migrated). There was only one simple place to change to fix that. It was easy for me to add my custom tables for my site to be migrated into the code, so I only had one migration tool to run.

Your user probably didn't get migrated because there was already a user in your new DB with that ID. I'd check there first.

when I run this converter I get the message that aspnet_Applications is not found. I just installed CS 1.0. I checked the forums here and could not find the answer. Any help?
