Hi,

I have a Plone 3.2 site I'm trying to upgrade to 4.3.2 using transmogrifier. 
I've managed to export a directory data OK from the old site, but when I upload 
the tarball to the new site nothing gets imported. I stuck in some print 
debugging in importSiteStructure in quintagroup/transmogrifier/exportimport.py 
and it appears when in portal_setup I use "Import uploaded tarball" something 
about the Products.GenericSetup.context.TarballImportContext is missing the 
profile_path and so the "if 
context.readDataFile('quintagroup.transmogrifier-import.txt') is None:" check 
fails.

There was an old reference at 
http://plone.293351.n2.nabble.com/Transmogrifier-import-not-doing-anything-td4641046.html
 to 
https://web.archive.org/web/20100417103920/http://projects.quintagroup.com/products/wiki/quintagroup.transmogrifier#Contentexport
 which suggests you have to untar the file, add a 
quintagroup.transmogrifier-import.txt file and then import it, but none of the 
other guides* seem to mention this step. I guess I could try altering the 
reader pipeline to use the directory context and have it read from a directory 
on the filesystem, but I'm still bemused as to how the tarball import is 
supposed to work.

I did try selecting the quintagroup.transmogrifier profile in the dropdown at 
the top of portal_setup/Import but that didn't help at all. Does anyone have an 
idea of how to get the import to work?

Thanks,

updated to note sitewalker can take start-path now rather than dealing with 
catalogsource)
