View Full Version : Migration QA Question

My site will not transition over and in the kiosk it shows numerous errors with a file mismatch. All are coppermine gallery albums and files. What puzzles me is if I click on any of the files in question it sends me to the side by side comparison and they are exactly alike. The temp sight (username.powweb.com) on the new server functions properly. I did notice that the QA team was marking them to ignore so I marked all the mismatch files to ignore and attempted the DNS flip. When I return some 30 minutes later it did not flip and another batch of files show up with the mismatch even though all seem to be identical. I once again ignored the files did the flip and repeated probably 6 plus times already. The site compare shows both the old and the new are the same. New works fine so can anyone point me as to where to look to see what QA is seeing as a mismatch, because I can't find any. Or how can I force it to flip since it appears to work correctly. I stopped updating the site when the talk of migration started so I could let it transition and then continue developing the site after in hopes of making it easier in the long run.

On another note regarding the ImageMagik path.....My files are configured with the path to imagemagik as /usr/local/bin/. In reading the posts I read that there is a glitch and the path should be /usr/bin/(confirmed by an I belive Keithl). I changed that path to /usr/bin/ in hopes of correcting the errors but it seems that the path was once again returned to /usr/local/bin/ by the migration. Can anyone confirm what the correct path is?

As you've noted in your post, Keith has indicated the correct path.

Please follow the migration instructions, the DNS flip is intended as the final stage, when you've corrected all the problems you and the migration team can.

IanS, that's the problem. The QA is showing a file mismatch yet when I do the compare
both old and new are the same and the url that appears on the bottom of each site
window is a match, with the exception of the test site using username.powweb.com so I do not see any mismatch. Second, I did go to the configuration of coppermine and changed the path to imagemagik to /usr/bin/ as Keithl stated, but when QA runs the scripits it changes it back to /usr/local/bin/, that is why I questioned the correct path, since it was changed back. I am using the automatic migration path, if I switch it to manual would I get more details to determine what QA is seeing as a file mismatch.

As a side I am seeing in my error logs a number of "File does not exist" requesting
thumbs from coppermine. Files are being requested as /cpg134/.../thumb_dcp_123.jpg
when on the original site it reads /cpg134/.../thumb_DCP_123.jpg (notice the case). I don't know why it would be requesting the filename different from what is actually on the server, but as I said, if I go to the site one the new server using username.powweb.com all links works, I can sign into the database ok. With the exception of the path changing back as stated above everything appears to be working perfectly on the new end.
