Hello all i always seem to set myself the hard tasks, i have 65k images and 400 albums to import into G2 from 1.5.1 when i start the import of one of the albums which has 1048 photo's in it, it gets to about 350 and gives me the following error i am using the import module which comes with gallery2. i am using version 2.0.2 because its the only version which works 100% with zen-cart. i have looked at the upload from local server option, but i am unsure if this makes a copy of my G1 albums or moves it from the original directory, can anyone answer me this? i need to get all these albums imported keeping the directory structure, can anyone give me some hints/tips on how i am going to get it done. Thanks --- PHP version (e.g. 4.3.11): |

maybe your webhost has set some limit on how much DB activity can occur in a single request.. i haven't seen a message like that before. if that's the case, not much you can do but import in smaller chunks.. if you hit this with a single album, then.. ?
g2-zencart has a G2.1 release.. http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:Modules:zencart
add from server does copy the images.. but you get just the images, no other data from G1 like captions.

i am not too bothered about captions as the guy who's site it is doesnt use them at all, just uploads and people buy the images,
so if i use the upload file from server it will not move them just make a copy? and leave the original as it was?
just need to keep the old site running until i get this 100% working.
I wonder if i transfer my database to another server where i can control the limits if that will make any difference, ill give that a go in the morning.
i may look into that i didnt realise there was a 2.1 mod now, - spent alot of time on 2.0.2 already so ill have to see how much better 2.1 is than 2.0.2
Thanks
