Hi,

after setting up Plone via buildout
(http://plone.org/documentation/tutorial/buildout) I am now trying to import
my websites from an old box.

I originally set up the old box to use separate data.fs files for each plone
site
(http://plone.org/documentation/how-to/multiple-plone-sites-per-zope-instance-using-separate-data-fs-files-for-each-one)
and tried initially just copying the *.fs files over to my new box. This
didn't work - the new installation was totally unaware of the original
sites.

I then decided to export the sites from the old box into .zexp files, and
then import these files into my new buildout.

This worked .. but I noticed many of the features in the site were not
working properly (namely the ajax features). For example when in the site
and wishing to change the status of a page from "private" to "published", I
clicked on "status" button in the kupu editing interface, and instead of
producing a drop down menu as expected, I was directed to a separate page.
very odd!

As Plone on my old box was 3.0.6, and my new version (from the buildout) was
3.1.1, I decided that my problems were probably due to incompatible versions
(i.e. my *.fs files from the old box were version 3.0.6 and were not totally
compatible with the latest Plone version).

I rebuilt Plone using buildout to 3.0.6 (using "recipe =
plone.recipe.plone>=3.0.6,<3.1dev" in my buildout.cfg).

However, when I try the import now, it fails completely with the following
error log:

2008-08-06T15:47:23 ERROR Zope.SiteErrorLog

  Module ZODB.Connection, line 519, in _commit
  Module ZODB.ExportImport, line 144, in _importDuringCommit
ImportError: No module named p4a.subtyper.interfaces

I am unfortunately at a loss!

Cheers,  Jim
