Melete Bulk Import into 2.3.x

Bulk import to 2.3.x Production environment

These are VERY similar to the instructions for testing the 'bulk import' in smartsite-test. The difference is that these are for PRODUCTION 2.3.x – AFTER THE RELEASE

Those instructions can be found at Detailed Instructions on Melete Bulk Export BUT you should have already completed them before getting here.

  1. Login to https://smartsite.ucdavis.edu:8443/portal
  2. Navigate to a site with the Modules tool
    • 'Message Center Test Course' is as good as any – you can get to it through 'Worksite Setup'
  3. Click on Modules in the tools menu
  4. Click on Manage in the menu at the top of tool screen
  5. Click on Export/Import on the screen that comes up
  6. 'Browse' to Monster.zip on your local file system.
  7. Click BULK IMPORT!!!
    • (warning) This may take quite a while – 10 minutes+
    • Don't worry too much about the time, as long as the browser is still thinking – again, DO NOT click 'stop', but if you do, don't worry. You can watch the import progress in the catalina.out log
    • (warning) You will see errors. There will be at least one stack trace – this is normal. A lot of the errors are old screwy courses and project sites – in the case of the site 'cbb72c7d-759c-4d4c-0036-dbc95d78d383', which is BIS 1B A01 SpSu06 there is a missing file in one section on prod that was throwing an error on import – I've 'touched' this file now, so it may work better

Testing

(warning) In Melete 2.3 the old 'Module', 'Unit', 'Lecture', followed by a number will no longer appear when viewing the modules, either in 'View' or 'Author' mode. They removed this functionality in favor of greater flexibility for the user.

(warning) If you don't seem to be able to click on a given link in the View screen, verify that the End Date is not earlier than today! If it is, then the content is no longer accessible.

  • Here are some sites you might want to check to make sure everything looks okay
    • BIS 1B A01 SpSu06
    • UWP 102E 001 WQ 2007
    • LIN 023 009 WQ 2007
    • FAP 266B 001 WQ 2007
    • COW 102 100 W06 (These are all unviewable in 'View' because the date has passed)
  • No labels
