Migrating from TRAC to Mantis

Post by acoder2020 »

Has anyone put together even an informal migration script to pull data from TRAC (including milestones, components, etc) and insert into relevant fields in Mantis?

Never tried myself, pretty old and I guess outdated, but might help some way https://orus.io/christophe.devienne/tra ... ch/default

This is all very old software (trac, and the trac2mantis script) and I've been banging my head against a wall with trying to get this to work in a slightly more modern environment.

I haven't got to trying to get trac2mantis to interface with the mantis installation, I'm guessing there's gonna be issues there too.

We have 15 years of data in Trac. Not being able to migrate the data is gonna be a hard sell in migrating to MantisBT. We are wanting off of Trac due to it running under python, and on a good day Trac is cantankerous.
