Graffiti CMS – Migrating your post from a Community Server Database

Kevin Tunis 12/8/2007 2:14:00 PM

After downloading GraffitiCMS, I had decided that I would like to keep my post from Community Server blog.

Backup your Community Server SQL Database (just in case)

Create a new SQL database for your Graffiti site

Run the SQL Query's - Graffiti_SQL_Schema.sql and Graffiti_SQL_Data.sql in this order

Go to _config/settings.config file and change the AppSetting Key "DataBuddy::Provider" value to "DataBuddy.SQLDataProvider

Download and install Jayme Davis alpha migration tool http://ndepth.net/blog/graffiti-beta-is-launched

Copied the connectionString from my Community Server connectionString.config file and pasted into the Connection String field; then entered my Application Key and User Name. After you press the get data button you should be able to select all your posts or just the ones you want to imported into your Grafitti blog from your Community Server blog.
