modoboa-pfxadmin-migrate

========================

|landscape|

A script to migrate from PostfixAdmin to Modoboa. It has been tested

against versions 2.3.3 and upper.

.. note::

   This script is only suitable for a new Modoboa installation.

Installation

------------

Install this extension system-wide or inside a virtual environment by

running the following command::

  $ pip install modoboa-pfxadmin-migrate

Edit the ``settings.py`` file of your modoboa instance and add

``modoboa_pfxadmin_migrate`` inside the ``MODOBOA_APPS`` variable like this::

    MODOBOA_APPS = (

    

      # End of list

      'modoboa_pfxadmin_migrate',

    )

Then, add a new database connection named ``pfxadmin`` into the

``DATABASES`` variable corresponding to your PostfixAdmin setup::

  DATABASES = {

      "default" : {

          # default connection definition

      },

      "pfxadmin" : {

          "ENGINE" : "",

          "NAME" : "",

          "USER" : "",

          "PASSWORD" : "",

      }  

  }

This connection should correspond to the one defined in PostfixAdmin's

configuration file.

Run the script

--------------

You are now ready to start the migration so run the following commands::

  $ cd 

  $ python manage.py migrate_from_postfixadmin -s 

```` must be replaced by the scheme used within

postfixadmin (``crypt`` most of the time).

Depending on how many domains/mailboxes your existing setup contains,

the migration can be long. Just wait for the script's ending.

The procedure is over, edit the ``settings.py`` file and:

* remove the ``pfxadmin`` database connection from the ``DATABASES``

  variable

* remove ``'modoboa_pfxadmin_migrate'`` from the

  ``MODOBOA_APPS`` variable

You should be able to connect to Modoboa using the same credentials

you were using to connect to PostfixAdmin.
