Thanks for all who replied to my initial request. I've followed the advice
and tried MySQL.
I have heard about problems with xar export/import and would like to avoid
it if naked DB migration is possible. I've googled up what seems a
righteous way using MySQL Migration Toolkit (here are 2 links:
http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Migrating+from+HSQLDB+to+MySQL,
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Migrating_from_HSQL).
After some exercises to make jdbc driver work I've got database exported
but run into problems with particular columns because of which complete
tables are not copied to MySQL. Below is an excerpt from report where for
problematic tables evil columns are mentioned:
`PUBLIC`.`XWIKICLASSES`
Column length too big for column 'XWO_CUSTOM_MAPPING' (max = 21845); use
BLOB or TEXT instead
`PUBLIC`.`XWIKICLASSESPROP`
Column length too big for column 'XWP_CUSTOMDISPLAY' (max = 21845); use
BLOB or TEXT instead
`PUBLIC`.`XWIKICOMMENTS`
Column length too big for column 'XWC_HIGHLIGHT' (max = 21845); use BLOB or
TEXT instead
`PUBLIC`.`XWIKIDOC`
Column length too big for column 'XWD_CONTENT' (max = 21845); use BLOB or
TEXT instead
`PUBLIC`.`XWIKILARGESTRINGS`
Column length too big for column 'XWL_VALUE' (max = 21845); use BLOB or
TEXT instead
`PUBLIC`.`XWIKIPREFERENCES`
Column length too big for column 'XWP_MENU' (max = 21845); use BLOB or TEXT
instead
Is there a way to cope with this or the only way is export/import with
Large Wiki Export extension?
Thx,
Andrey
