Migrate Uesrs from EE to CE

[Nisarg Parikh, modificado 12 Anos atrás.]

Hi All,

We have previously used EE (6.0.10) and now we are moving to CE (6.0.6).
I have few users in EE which I want in CE. Basically I want to migrate only Users.

Is it possible? if yes then how to achieve that?
Anyone has idea?

Thanks in Advance..

Liferay does not support migration of users. The easiest way to do this is export your users to a LDAP server and then import on your new instance.

Liferay EE (6.0.10) -> LDAP -> Liferay CE (6.0.6)

Hi Thiago,

Thanks for the suggestion.
I will try that one.

If you don't already have LDAP setup, just use the web services.

Hi Hitoshi,

Thanks for the great solution.

Will it work for "https" ?
If I want all the users from DB then I guess I have to change in the code as right now there is only 1 user I can get.

Please let me know.
Thank you.

Hi Hitoshi,

I tried to import the user data from the template in the data\template folder but I got the following exception.

I am running this utility from Windows env and trying to connect to Linux env.
I successfully connect to the environment but there is something wrong with the CSV file.

I am using LR CE 6.0.6 version.

Please help me on this.
Thank you.

The sample is for 6.0.5. You'll have to recompile using LR's 6.0.6 SDK.

Hi Hitoshi,

I have tried to compile with 6.0.6 JARs. I have replaced axis.jar, portal-client.jar, portal-service.jar files and compiled it but still I am getting the same error.

Please let me know what to do.

Thank you.

Hi Hitoshi,

I am still facing the same exception.

Can you please help me in solving this? Is it possible that my .csv file is not proper?

Any help/hint would be appreciated.

Thanks again.

Hi Hitoshi,

Finally I have done this successfully.

I did some code changes for multiple users.
Export class will read the CSV file contains userIds and some related changes in writting csv file.

Thanks for this wonderful utility.

Hi Hitoshi,

I can successfully migrate the users but one thing I have noticed is that the PASSWORD has been changed while importing users.

It was correct while exporting and before executing the import method call.

Any idea why it is happening?

Please help me.

I saw the source code and I found that Liferay encrypt the password we send.
In our csv file we already have the password encrypted.

What can be the possible solution for that?

Please help me.
Thank you.
