Common migration issues

Below you will find cleanup commands from the EzPublishMigrationBundle for the most common issues that can occur after migration to Ibexa DXP.

Enabling EzPublishMigrationBundle bundle

To enable EzPublishMigrationBundle add the following to your dev environment bundles in app/AppKernel.php:

1
$bundles[] = new \eZ\Bundle\EzPublishMigrationBundle\EzPublishMigrationBundle();

Caution

Remember about proper backup before running any of the commands below.

Regenerating URL aliases

To regenerate URL aliases, use the ibexa:urls:regenerate-aliases command. See Regenerating URL aliases for more information.

Note

This command keeps history and replaces the old ibexa:regenerate:legacy_storage_url_aliases command. legacy_storage_url_aliases is now deprecated.

Normalizing images

If you use image files with unprintable UTF-8 characters, you may come across a problem with images not displaying. In that case, run the ezplatform:images:normalize-path command to normalize them:

1
php bin/console ezplatform:images:normalize-path

Special characters

If a corrupted path is detected, check the var_dir configuration for any special or Unicode characters.

Unknown relation type 0

"Unknown relation type 0." error occurs only when using REST API. The issue does not occur the first time article is published (upon creation). It only happens after the article is edited and published.

If this error occurs use the console command below. It will clean up redundant Relations rows:

1
php bin/console ezpublish:update:legacy_storage_clean_up_relation_type_eq_zero
The command can be executed in two modes:

  • list / dry-run - prints table with all corrupted Relations that will be deleted (to be executed first)
  • fix - executes clean up

Always available flag set on all Fields

Always available flag is set on all Fields, instead of only on Fields in the main language. This problem occurs when Ibexa DXP is used to create content that is both always available and has multiple translations. The cleanup script will correctly set always available flag for prioritized language filtering in Legacy search engine.

1
php bin/console ezpublish:update:legacy_storage_fix_fields_always_available_flag

Only affected Fields will be processed by the cleanup command.

Listing sub-content

It is possible that after upgrade sort_key_string is left empty. This may cause problems in searches throughout the API. The cleanup script will check if Fields of given Field Type have correct sort key, and update it if needed.

Execute the following command from the installation root directory:

1
php bin/console ezpublish:update:legacy_storage_update_sort_keys
