Website migration progress

The IVRPA website is undergoing major maintenance work. We are updating our data structures in the process. Read the announcement for more information.

During the migration, the site is in a "read-only" state; you can not log in to the site to post content and/or make changes to your profile etc. The IVRPA mailinglist remain active. In this post, I will keep track of the progress of the actual migration.

Mon, 9:06AM
The IVRPA site is now in read-only mode. All users have been logged out. If you try to log back in to the site, you will be redirected to this page instead.
Mon, 10:16AM
A shadow site where all migration work is going on is up and running. Manual datamigration to the new database schemas has started.
Mon, 12:02AM
The first (simple) datatypes have been migrated.
Mon, 16:53AM
All data and files have been migrated from the legacy flexinode to new cck-based tables, except locations (google maps). Remaining work includes:

  • Migrating location information for users and gallery items,
  • Updating themes for all migrated content-types,
  • Updating (remaining) custom code and custom modules,
  • Testing, lots of testing, and (performance) tweaking.

Most of these remaining tasks will be executed tomorrow.

All data (including location) has been succesfully migrated. The major remaining task is updating the theming so everything looks as good as or better than it used to look.
Wed, 10:25AM
Theming and updating of remaining custom code is taking longer than expected. This will continue through the day.
Wed, 9:52PM
You are reading this on the new, migrated site. There are quite a few rough edges, but users can log in (and post) to the site again.
