I will release a new version to allow migrate from NE 5 to NE 6 as my server also have to.

Hi, you don't have published yet another version, so the last change is this ??

Right

I'm trying to migrate an Open-Source version to a Network version. During the process, I have this error :

Why are you 'migrating' it rather than just doing an upgrade? Do both system have the same 32bit or 64bit architecture?

Are you using the script in this thread?

Currently I have an Open version on a virtualize Ubuntu 32b server and I want to migrate on a 64b physical one (I can't do a VtoP operation because of XenServer ...)

That's why I tried this script after configuring the physical server as a replica LDAP.


If you confirm that I can upgrade the virtualize server, do a backup and import it on the physical server, I will take this solution.
Maybe there is a problem with backup between 32b and 64b version ??


On the other hand, I want to thanks hinyinlam for his script. It is useful.

You need to follow these instructions to migrate to 64bit.

I will publish an update version for 5 to 6 two months later

Hi,
great work on this script, much appreciated.

has anyone tried this script out with latest stable release of zimbra?

I am hoping to find a solution to migrating our existing zimbra to new server hardware, and from ubuntu 8.04LTS to 10.04LTS.

thanks
Paul

welcome, please do not try this script over version 6 or 7 as it is possible that it will corrupt your destination data (don't worry, it won't crash your source server)

I use heavily regex to replace the blob and that's why it is so fast and can use rsync.

database structure in 6 or 7 is surely different from the old one and those regex will fail sliently.
