Redmine

Just copy your trac instance directory and its database.

To get a copy, shut down Trac, then:

If it's Sqlite, copy the .db file to your Redmine server

If it's PostgreSQL, use pg_dump to dump it, then load it into a PostgreSQL db on the Redmine server

If it's MySQL, use mysqldump (I think that's the command) to dump it, then again, load it into a MySQL db on the Redmine server.

I'm not 100% sure you even need the instance directory, but you probably do because it has a few bits of config in it that I'm guessing redmine will look at.

I guess your other option is to install Redmine on the Trac server and then move the database to the Redmine server.

Thanks for the reply guys.

I have tried the second option there (but I guess it doesn't really matter) and it gives me this error:

rake aborted!
no such file to load -- sqlite

I am using sqlite on Trac and I am under windows. I typed C:\myproject into the Trac directory and it gave me the error above.

Please help.

Thank you,

Daniel

guess you need sqlite-bindings in ruby?

in command-window:

gem install sqlite-ruby

or for sqlite3:

gem install sqlite3-ruby

no ruby-man myself, but I remember I got a similar error, and I did something like above

I got around this by using mounting the trac server to my redmine server via sshfs. Both of them are linux boxes, so ssh already exists. http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html It is also available in most repositories for those of you using yum or apt-get.
