How can settings from existing Redmine installation be imported into new installation?
Added by Frank Church over 12 years ago
I have created some Redmine installations and would love to import the settings from a pre-existing installation. Things like Issues, News, Documents, Wiki Pages, Messages, Projects should be left behind and stuff like Groups, Issue Status, Custom fields ,Settings,Enumerations be imported.
Is there a tool or script which can do that?
I also suppose that the database can be copied, but stuff like issues, documents etc left behind. Is there some script or SQL that can do just that, delete the issues, wiki pages etc, or some subset of them?
Another thing I would like to be able to import are the custom queries?
If there is an administrative page or plugin where I can delete Issues, Projects etc that would also be great.

Hi,
It seems that this file: source:trunk/lib/redmine/default_data/loader.rb is the script that is executed when the command
rake redmine:load_default_datais started. I think that it may be hacked so as additional data to be loaded. It seems that this script takes respect of the database relations and I believe the data consistency will not be damaged.
