THIS METHOD DOES NOT WORK

Step 1: Dump vb database again and all attachments.
Step 2: Transfer to discourse host.

Step 3:

Code:

discourse=# alter table posts add column vbpostid integer;
ALTER TABLE
discourse=#

Step 4: Moved transferred files to shared directory in docker (shared between docker and host)
Step 5: Rebuild staging mysql DB in docker / discourse.

Step 5: Run modified vbulletin_neo3.rb migration script.

Code:

export IMPORT=1
su discourse -c 'bundle exec ruby script/import_scripts/vbulletin_neo3.rb'

THIS METHOD DID NOT WORK

I think there are some unknown (to me) status counters for topics and posts, because I did not seem to reimport anything but the news topics / threads since the last import.

So, seems I have little choice if I want to refine (transfer likes, fix ICODE tags) is to start migration from scratch.

Let's see after this "does not seem to be working attempt" completes.

The problem seemed to be with postgres and the fact it is running outside the docker discourse app. But frankly, I don't have time or interest to analyze why this "brute force method" failed.

It's easy enough to start over with all lessons learned from the test migrations.

ruby-build

RUBY-BUILD(1)															     RUBY-BUILD(1)

NAME

       ruby-build - compile and install Rubies

SYNOPSIS

       ruby-build [-v|--verbose] [-k|--keep] definition prefix
       ruby-build --definitions
       ruby-build --version
       ruby-build [-h|--help]
       rbenv install [-k|--keep] definition

DESCRIPTION

       ruby-build provides a simple way to compile and install different versions of Ruby on UNIX-like systems.

       ruby-build  downloads,  builds  and  installs the Ruby version specified in a definition into a prefix directory. Definitions can be chosen
       from the list of installed definitions or by specifying a file path for a definition.

       rbenv(1) users can also use the provided rbenv install command, which installs Rubies into the rbenv directory.

OPTIONS

       --definitions
	      List available definitions.

       -k, --keep
	      Don't delete source code after installation.

       -v, --verbose
	      Display compiler messages on standard output.

       --version
	      Show ruby-build version and exit.

       -h, --help
	      Show usage information and exit.

EXAMPLES

       Install Ruby 1.9.3 (MRI, patch level 0) to ~/rubies/mri-1.9.3

	   $ ruby-build 1.9.3-p0 ~/rubies/mri-1.9.3

       Install Ruby Enterprise Edition 1.8.7 (patch level 2011.03) for rbenv(1):

	   $ rbenv install ree-1.8.7-2011.03

       Install Ruby from a custom definition into ~/your-ruby:

	   $ rbenv install /path/to/your/own/ruby/definition ~/your-ruby

ENVIRONMENT

       CC     Sets the path to the C compiler.

       CONFIGURE_OPTS
	      Options that are passed to configure when building a Ruby.

       MAKE_OPTS
	      Options that are passed to make when building a Ruby.

       MAKEOPTS
	      Used instead of MAKE_OPTS when MAKE_OPTS is not defined.

       TMPDIR Sets the location where ruby-build stores temporary files.

       RUBY_BUILD_BUILD_PATH
	      Sets the location in which sources are downloaded and built.
