Plone 6 Data Migration

Plone Support Administering Plone sites

Am migrating Plone 5 content 'Data.fs' and 'blobstorage' to latest Plone 6 docker instance running default RelStorage on postgres.

  1. Copy the source data to /data/source
  2. Create a custom conf
  3. Running 'bin/zodbconvert --clear etc/relstorage-import.conf' from plone-backend container.
<filestorage source>
path /data/source/Data.fs
blob-dir /data/source/blobstorage
</filestorage>
<relstorage destination>
      <postgresql>
            dsn $(RELSTORAGE_DSN)
       </postgresql>
 </relstorage>

Wonder how to resolve the following error: Thanks.

You have to configure a blobstorage dir, even if you store the blobs in postgres.
The directory in that case is the cache directory of your instance.


<relstorage destination>
        # ZODB Cache Dir
        blob-dir ./var/blobstorage
        # db connect
        <postgresql>
        dsn 
        </postgresql>
</relstorage>
