HI support,

I am trying to migrate my jomsocial site to Joomla 3.0 so I can use the new socialize template. I have done the following:

1. installed a clean Joomla 2.5
2. installed jomsocial 3.X
3. export iml_users from source db
4. export jml_community_* tables from source db
5. Import jml_users and jml_community_* tables into fresh joomla 2.5 db

when I try to login I get this error:

"You cannot access the private section of this site."

What tables have i missed?

I am doing it this way since I could not do a direct upgrade of my site from Joomla 2.5 to 3.0 . I always get the white screen of death.

any help is appreciated.

Regards,

abuan

Hi, leevon.

Try different approach. On your Joomla! 2.5 site (with JomSocial and other original content) go to:

your_domain/administrator/index.php?option=com_joomlaupdate

Click "Options" in upper right corner.

Change "Update server" from "Long Term Support (recommended)" to "Short Term Support". Then upgrade your installation.
No db migration needed :)
Please confirm if it works for you.

hi Michael,

I was able to use this but I get the error:

/libraries/joomla/error/error.php on line 797

This is the reason why I am trying to resort to the export and import option.

So I can start with a clean install and migrate my data.

Hi, leevon.

In my opinion it's better to resolve /libraries/joomla/error/error.php on line 797 issue than try to export and import data to db.
Give it a try on copy of your 2.5 system. Try to upgrade or uinstall all other extension but JomSocial... and try to comment out line 797 in error.php. or ask for solution on Joomla! forum.

hi Michal,

I managed to upgrade the site via the export import. The joomla upgrade option threw too many errors.

thanks for the ideas though.

regards.
