Hello all,
I have a question about exporting. We have a site that is using MySQL
for the database, and I am having trouble getting a test instance up
and running with a copy of the MySQL database (some nodes are getting
corrupted along the way). So I figured I would try to make an export
from Magnolia and just re-import that, rather than copy the entire
database.
Can anyone tell me how I can get a clean export that can be
re-imported? I feel like I must be doing something wrong, as every
export I make is not suitable for import. I have tried:
1. Tools -> Export, selecting the website repository, / for path,
versions not checked, format XML not checked, XML selected for
compression
2. Same as #1 only with format XML checked
3. Right clicking on a page in the Website view and selecting
"Export tree to xml"
In all 3 cases, the output produced is exactly the same. I am not
sure what the format XML checkbox is supposed to do but it does not
seem to have any effect whether I check it off or not. The export I
get cannot be imported back into the new repository because each
<sv:value> node that has content in it has line breaks all through it
and when the file is imported, the line breaks get converted to <br/>
tags. Since a good number of these line breaks appear between HTML
attributes, I am ending up with some really broken HTML after import.
For example, my export has:
<sv:value><div align="center"><strong><img
width="250" height="258"
align="absbottom"
src="contact/mainColumnParagraphs/0/content_files/file/Logo
Color.jpg" alt="" /></strong><br />
</div></sv:value>
and then after import, the HTML looks like:
<div align="center"><strong><img width="250" height="258"<br />
align="absbottom"
src="contact/mainColumnParagraphs/0/content_files/file/Logo<br />
Color.jpg" alt="" /></strong><br /> </div>
(notice the <br /> tags in the middle of the img attributes and in the
middle of the file name)
Anyone have any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong with these exports?
Thanks!
Miranda
Hi Miranda,
sorry for this late reply.
We found a similar behaviour after an export and following import of a
website. Line breaks were wrongly set and links were only displayed in
plaintext. We use magnolia in version 3.0.2 and jackrabbit in version
1.0.2...
I am not sure if you have already tried it,but you can try follow:
> do an export with the magnolia export-tool with the option "keep
version=checked" and "format xml=not checked" !! (this combination have
to be!!, (keep version=true or format xml=true does'nt work!!)
After these changes our website looks well after an export and following
import.
1. Tools -> Export, selecting the website repository, / for path,
versions checked, format XML not checked, XML selected for
compression
"I am not sure what the format XML checkbox is supposed to do " With the
setting "format XML" the website is stored in a conform,nice xml
design,without this option, XML code of the website is displayed side by
side in one line. (my idea)
Hope It helps you.
