Kohei Nozaki commented on ROL-2104:
-----------------------------------
First, I'd recommend you to re-post this to Roller users mailing list where is
more suitable for asking for help because there are more people watching who
are users and developers, than here.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ROLLER/Roller+Mailing+Lists
As for the theme migration, I think checking current standard themes that
shipped with Roller distribution is good for you. theme files are not complex
as much so I think you can create new theme files for your old custom themes
after checking current standard ones. also you can check them online:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/roller/trunk/app/src/main/webapp/themes/
As for 404 error, I guess possible causes are:
* Roller failed to find the weblog
* Roller failed to find the entry
But I don't really understand about your situation. could you give more
information about it?
For example, can you view the frontpage of weblog? did you only failed to view
permalink of each entry? or are there any indication of error or stacktraces in
your container log or Roller log which is placed on the path specified in
roller-custom.properties?

> Hello,
> I have been attempting to upgrade our Roller version from 2.3 to the latest
> version 5.1.2. Whilst doing this upgrade I am also attempting to migrate
> Roller from an old server to a new one running Apache Tomcat 7.
> I have ran through the migration scripts to cover every iteration from 2.3 to
> 5.1.2 (and edited the code contained in some of the scripts for them to work)
> however I am now stuck with a couple of issues that is delaying the project.
> The current situation is:
> I have Roller running on Apache Tomcat V7 and have logged into the
> administration console;
> My users have migrated correctly and the application is talking successfully
> to the Oracle 12c database;
> The custom themes that we use on 2.3 are .css based, where as it looks like
> now they should be .xml. - is there any guidance on how to convert these
> themes to the new standard?
> I am able to create a new posting successfully, however I am unable to view
> these postings due to a 404 error where by it looks like the app is unable to
> find/display the page. Do you have any suggestions on what could be the issue
> there?
> Any assistance would be very gratefully received!
