Hi there -- I am currently using Trac as a hosted service with a sqlite backend. I'm trying to set up my own install of Trac with a postgres backend, and want to import tickets from the old system to the new one. I see a number of solutions for importing tickets from other systems (or Excel) to Trac, but not from Trac to Trac. Am I missing something?

thanks,
-josh

The only tool I used successfully so far for Trac-to-Trac data transfer
is TicketMoverPlugin [1]. However I would only see it active during an
isolated admin session. Its a bit too powerful for its non-production
state IMHO.

Thanks for the replies, very helpful. It looks like TracMigratePlugin is the way to go these days.

So I gave this a shot but am having some kind of configuration trouble with the plugin. I am new at trac administration so I'm wondering if it's something common with setting up plugins that I've gotten wrong. Perhaps it would be obvious to the gurus here? https://trac-hacks.org/ticket/11534

Great so far. But bring your issues HERE to the list next time, please.

Not so bright, because the issue and solution is now trapped inside a
closed ticket invalidly claiming a bug for the plugin. These tickets are
for development, not support, and every reporter is advised about that
with a big red box at creation time.

You see the point now? Thanks for taking care next time.
