You need the sqlite-ruby gem to access the Trac database.
25
26
- For sqlite: <pre>gem install sqlite-ruby</pre>
27
- For sqlite3: <pre>gem install sqlite3-ruby</pre>
28 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
29
Before starting, you need a fresh Redmine database, *with default data loaded (required)*. See [[RedmineInstall|Redmine installation]].

The script was tested with a 0.10 Trac sqlite database and a 0.11 Trac sqlite3 database.
32 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
33
1. Run the following command, where test is your Redmine target environment:
34
35
  rake redmine:migrate_from_trac RAILS_ENV="test"
36 2 Jean-Philippe Lang
37 22 James Rowe
2. The script (source:trunk/lib/tasks/migrate_from_trac.rake) asks you for your Trac settings:
38 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
39
<pre>
40
Trac directory []: /var/trac/myproject
41 7 Jean-Philippe Lang
Trac database adapter (sqlite, sqlite3, mysql, postgresql) [sqlite]:
42 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
Database encoding [UTF-8]:
43
Target project identifier []: myproject
44
</pre>
45
46 7 Jean-Philippe Lang
Trac directory is the root directory of your Trac environment. Redmine will look in this directory for @db/trac.db@ (if you choose sqlite/sqlite3 database) and the @attachments@ directory.
47
When using a mysql or postgresql Trac database, the script will ask you for the connection parameters (host, database name, username and password).
48 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
Target project identifier is the identifier of the Redmine project in which the data will be loaded (the project is created if not found).

Now, you should see a project called Myproject in Redmine with your Trac data loaded in this project.

h2. Mantis
72
73
The Mantis importer migrates:
74
75
    * Users
76
    * Projects
77
    * Project versions, categories and news
78
    * Project memberships
79
    * Bugs

    * Bug notes, files, relations and monitors
81
    * Custom fields
82
83
User passwords are all set to "mantis".
84
85 8 Jean-Philippe Lang
Bug files migration only works if they're stored in your Mantis database (this is the default Mantis behaviour).
86 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
87
The script was tested with different 1.0.x Mantis databases and should work with any other recent versions.

Before starting, you need a fresh Redmine database, *with default data loaded (required)*. See [[RedmineInstall|Redmine installation]].

* Bugzilla importer: #989 There are currently two bugzilla importers. bz2redmine http://github.com/ralli/bz2redmine and migrate_from_bugzilla http://github.com/ralli/migrate_from_bugzilla. The bz2redmine preserves the original bugzilla bug numbers and the migrate_from_bugzilla rake task uses the ActiveRecord framework and may be used to migrate from and to postgresql databases.
