gallery to gallery
25 February, 2006 15:51
I migrated from Gallery 1 to Gallery 2. The initial setup of the application was pleasantly painless. The installation wizard is one of the best I have used.
However, the migration of data was not much fun. First of all, godaddy doesn't seem to like a script running for more than a couple of minutes. I tried changing a php variable inside .htaccess, but that was a no-go and made my content inaccesible. The reason I needed the script to run longer, is the integration of some 2000 pictures from Gallery 1.
After several attempts at importing them at once, I set out to seperate the pictures in batches of 300 in seperate directories. I then imported the pictures with the local directory feature, one directory at a time.
This had worked for the most part, but I started getting a lot of file locking errors, to many files open, and the likes. I switched over to SQL indexed file locks, and the problem went away.
After several attempts at getting everything fine and dandy, my last successful attempt I declined from making the mod_rewrite declerations. I am not about to do this over, and create them. Sorry if the absolute links are no longer absolute.
In any case, I have a pretty stable picture gallery that will be able to support the amount of pictures and video clips I plan on throwing at it.
