Hi,
In case someone is interested:
I created a FPC program to migrate a mantis bugtracker database from
MySQL to Postgres.
The reason for creating such a beast is that MySQL is inferior to
Postgres in many ways,
and so we're switching the FPC bugtracker from MySQL to Postgres. (the
recent bugtracker downtime is no stranger to this decision)
The program takes care of several conversion pitfalls: Different data
types and erroneous data (MySQL allows wrong UTF8 in the tables, postgres
rightly complains about it).
If someone has interest in such a program : let me know, and I'll send
you the sources.
Michael.
Hello buddy!
I'm interested! Please send it to Github, that way everyone will benefit. :-)
Well, FPC also has a repository for this kind of side-projects:
Just check out
