from news_ttnewsimport.

Hi,

I'm using Typo3 6.2.11
Ext:news 3.0.1
Ext: news_ttnewsimport 1.0.1

I have the same problem,

"tt_news record" to "tx_news_domain_model_news" is OK
"tt_news_cat" to "sys_category" is OK

But all media is lost, can you explain me what is your way, to import the media? Do you use any other extension to convert the DAM to FAL?

Thx

Hi,

requirements for the migration to work is:

• tx_dam table is present
• tx_dam_mm_ref table is present
• tt_news table is present
• ext:news is setup and works (best way to test is creating a test news item with image and check if it shows on front-end)
• ext:news is configured to use FAL (see extension manager for ext:news settings)
• all images need to be availeble on there original place as they where when using DAM

The news importer will move the images when needed to the configured import folder if they aren't already in your file storage.

Hi, Thx for your answer.
I'm trying your solution but I have some problems.

In my new install of Typo3 6.2.11, I have installed the following EXT :

• tt_news 3.6.0
• news 3.1.0
• tt_news importer 1.0.1

In the configuration of news extension, I have :

Use FAL relations instead of news media elements [records.useFal] => Yes
Show importer [backend modules.showImporter] => True
In which folder should the importer save files/images [backend modules.resourceFolderImporter] => I set for exemple "/fileadmin/images/news"

1 error : when I go to the News Import module, I have always the same error message => "The configuration for the import is incomplete!
The directory defined in the setting "resourceFolderImporter" does not exist!"

But, I'm sure that the folder exist with any permissions!

1. I have a new record with media (ex: picture saved as /upload/pics folder)

If this folder exist, I have an popup error during the import action, but when the folder isn't exist, the import make no error, but the media file is not recovered.

Do you know where is my error? No other extension is required?

Thank you

n which folder should the importer save files/images [backend modules.resourceFolderImporter] => I set for exemple "/fileadmin/images/news" ==> this link is relative to fileadmin so try :
"images/news"

the folder as to be created by ftp or BO before launch importer

The folder should be set relative to your filestorage.

So if you have a folder fileadmin/images/news the folder you set in the extension configuration is images/news. Asuming you have a default install where your file storage uid = 1 used folder fileadmin.

The folder images/news needs to be visible/writeable in the BE filelist. Easiest way to create the folder is also using the BE filelist.
