VBulletin 3.8 to Discourse on Docker Migration Test Take Two
OK.
Like we all do, we learn a lot from tests, test migrations, and so forth.
Today, I started from scratch on test migration 2, armed with a lot more knowledge,
The main differences are as follows:
Installed discourse plugin ruby-bbcode-to-md before starting the install
Modified vbulletin.rb to account for many (not all) of our custom bbcode, like our icode and. mods tags
Modified vbulletin.rb to compensate for the fact that vb3 does not have a filedata table (like vb4)
Modified vbulletin.rb to compensate for an error in converting child forums to categories in discourse.
Moved all avatars to the vb3 database from the file system before dumping the DB.
Running again, from scratch, vbulletin_neo.rb:
Let's see how this goes....
PS: As a side note, when migrating like this, do not use the same username for your Discourse admin account as your legacy forum username (the forum you are migrating from) because if you do, there will be an issue importing your posts under your legacy forum username into discourse. In this "round two", I did not make that mistake

Update:
It quit due to a broken ssh connect over the net, so I installed tmux and restarted in a tmux session.
Still chugging along:
However, when I check in the admin control panel, the ruby-bbcode-to-md plugin does not appear.
I check the discourse ./plugins directory and ruby-bbcode-to-md is there and there are no errors when I rebuilt the discourse with ./launcher rebuild app
So, I'm a bit worried the ruby-bbcode-to-md plugin is not really installed properly
Not a good feeling about this plugin since it shows it installed in the plugin directory and there were on install errors in the log:

Also, oddly, I got this error on users migration a number of times:
So, I stopped the process and ran this mysql command against the vb3 dump:
and restarted the migration and those errors went away... LOL
I cannot see any reason for this "email blocking" in the admin settings... which worries me a bit, hidden "rules" and "blocks" and "suspects" which are not identifiable in the admin settings :yikes:
Dear All,
After being active on the Node-RED forum for the last few weeks, I have been very impressed with Discourse, and my eyes have been opened.
