[Setup] Upgrading Plone site issues

Brian Sullivan Sat, 03 Dec 2005 07:28:27 -0800

I am in the process of trying to upgrade an existing Plone site running on Plone 1.0.5 ( on (Zope 2.6.2 (binary release, python 2.1, win32-x86), python 2.1.3, win32)) to Plone 2.1.1 (

(Zope 2.8.4-final, python 2.3.5, win32)) and have run into some difficulties.

It seems that the recommended Zope version for 2.1.1 is Zope 2.8.2. From what I can tell though 2.8.4 is supposed to work and be a suitable base?

The first problem I run into is just in adding a test Plone site to the Zope with no changes. When attempting to edit the home page of this I get the following error:

Site error

This site encountered an error trying to fulfill your request. The errors were:

Error Type: AttributeError
Error Value: referencebrowser_startupDirectory

Traceback:

Does anybody have any idea what the root cause is? I am not sure if this is related to my subsequent woes or not.

What I am attempting to do for my upgrade is to export the existing Plone site from the Zope 2.6.2 server and import it into the new Zope 2.8.2 server. An attempt to import the site results in the following error:

Most of the existing strategies/hits for importing old Plone sites talk about using an existing data.fs (which I can't do -- I have different servers with different content outside the plone site) or just cutting and pasting content (which I can't do either).

Any ideas where to go next?
