Migrating from Sugarcrm to SuiteCRM

Hi.

This is my first post here…I’m using the migration doc to try and upgrade my Sugarcrm to SuiteCRM.

When I upload the zip file I get this…

ERROR: There was an error during upload. Error code: - . The upload_maxsize is 60000000

And this in Sugar…

The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.

The file is SugarCE Migration 6.5.x to Suite 7.1.8.zip…

Any thoughts?

I am uploading to a VPS and have changed the php.ini file as defined in the migration document.

Thanks

Kevin

Yes, you just need to increase some sizes in your php.ini

Best place to follow would be this: https://suitecrm.com/wiki/index.php/Installation#Upgrade_prerequisites

That was the point - you can see I followed that document - it says max_upload is 6000000 as per the doc in my log file…even if I make it more it still does not work. I suspect it has something to do with my VPS

In any case I’m going to run a fresh install rather than upgrade.

Thanks anyway…

have you restarted your apache service to implement these changes? just to confirm :slight_smile:

Yes I did…I even re-booted the whole VPS… :frowning:

As I said I have the luxury of wiping sugarcrm and starting over with a fresh install of suitecrm so I’ll work on that…

Interestingly - I deleted sugar - re-installed it - run the 18-20 upgrade which ran fine but still the migration file will not load…

Thanks anyway for your help Cameron… :slight_smile:

What is your current sugar version which you tried to migrate?

Well it was 6.5.18 then up to 6.5.20 - the last SugarCE releash.

HI!

I too faced similar situation while migrating.
Have you changed the upload file size in sugar administration-> system settings?

In a situation like this, I have done small technique and did the migration

Steps

Typically SugarCE upgrade will initially copy the upgrade files and then extract it and make some changes before starting upgrade.
So what I did is simply move the necessary files and make the necessary changes manually in the SugarCE uploads patch folder. Then If I begin the upgrade wizard it will prompt the existing upgrade files(manually configured files). If I continue on that finally the upgrade process will complete successfully. I have tried this technique by upgrading couple of times and it worked well.
