I followed the instructions at http://ce4.theturninggate.net/docs/doku … migration, but get the following message:
Message: galleries.xml not found at client
What to do?
Thanks.

Was 'client' originally controlled by CE3 Publisher?
Was it devoid of any CE4 Publisher controlled albums before you attempted migration?
Can you provide a link to your site?

Hi Rod,
'client' is name of the top level directory for both CE3 and CE4.
I deleted all of the test albums from CE4 Publisher before attempting to migrate from CE3 to CE4.
Offline
There is an xml file in the client directory, but it's
galleries_ce3.xml
Offline
That implies that migration has already completed (the migration process renames the file to galleries_ce3.xml).
Were the galleries successfully moved to a CE4 instance of Publisher in Lightroom?

Hi Ben,
CE4 Publisher's still empty.
But if I open the CE3 albums, it takes me to the TTG-BE galleries.
And if I click on CE3 download galleries for TIFFs, for example, I get a message: Unable to perform action: getThumbnails. Message: album not found.

That's strange. Can you provide the link to your galleries? Also, if you can send me the TTG BE admin login via PM I'll have a look to see whether the albums have been migrated on the server.

Sent you a PM, Ben.

I can't access any CE3 galleries (about 100 of them), and can't assign any albums. Clients won't be able to access them either.
http://www.mysite.com/ttg-be/crg/?a=list_albums keeps hijacking my CE3 gallery links. It show no gallery.

Are these CE3 galleries or albums?
If galleries, you won't be able to manage them with Publisher or the CRG backend. You would need to recreate them as CE4 CRGs.
If albums, they'll need to be converted to CE4 CRG albums first by assigning them to a CE4 CRG template.

Hi Rod,
I call them galleries, but they're album sets and albums (e.g. client name [album set]>project name [album set]>selection gallery [album]).
What's the difference between a gallery and an album, Rod?
Am confused, I followed the instructions at http://ce4.theturninggate.net/docs/doku … migration,

for practical purposes and from a visitor's standpoint they are the same thing. But a gallery is exported and uploaded (this is how we added galleries to a site before Publisher came along). An album is created by Publisher.
Have you assigned your old CE3 albums to new CE4 CRG templates? They need to be CE4 before they can be managed by the CRG backend

Hi Rod,
> Have you assigned your old CE3 albums to new CE4 CRG templates? How do I do that? When I login to the TTG-BE backend, the galleries aren't showing up, so am unable to assign any albums. And under CRG Admin, it still lists albums/galleries that I've already deleted.
My Album Sets (and nested Album Set and Albums) are still showing under TTG CE3 Publisher in LR. Is that right? Are they supposed to move into the TTG CE4 Publisher?

After migration they should show up under CE4 Publisher. You can then assign them your CE4 CRG template.
But give Ben a chance to look at it. He's in Australia so he's likely asleep at the moment.

Any news Ben?

Hi Robert, I've replied to your PM. FYI, I work a day job Monday thru Thursday, so can only look at issues in the evenings.
