hi!
i'd like to migrate my old nuke to shiny new drupal and have a few questions..
1, none of migrate scripts are working, i got sql error (can't connect), however on the main page all scripts counts the users and stories num well.. (i have the sql server on other ip, but don't understand why i see stories num well and got error..)
2, how can i migrate an old coppermine photo gallery to drupal? i need photo comments too..

i already migrated users by hand, just need to do stories, photos and the whole forum.

thanks for your help, drupal is very impressive, respect!

I do not know of any script to convert coppermine to Drupal.

here is a link to a handbook page about migrating from other software: http://drupal.org/node/271

This might help?

Dunno what scripts you used, I've just migrated from postnuke to Drupal 4.6 and then upgraded, using a hacked version of this script found here: http://drupal.org/node/134269

Regarding the coppermine, I have no idea but that postnuke -> drupal migration might help get you started.

postnuke is same as phpnuke?

no post nuke and php nuke are different.

There is a link for migration for PHPnuke on the link I already provided. For convience I post the direct link to specifics for PHP nuke: http://drupal.org/node/498

thanks, i already got that

thanks, i already got that /498 link, tried every script from it, and all said that sql error i mentioned above
so far i couldn't found a script that migrates from 7.xnuke to 5.x drupal..

after i modified the script

after i modified the script i could migrate users succesfully, now i have troubles with stories...
the error is:
Migrating story Categories:
MySQL Error: Max ID for term_data_tid could not be retrieved

any idea?
migrating is not easy.. :)
