Hi all!

I need to import a package that is 191MB. Doing this via the admin interface appears the be very troublesome.

So I wonder if it is possible to do it via CLI?

Hi Felix

It is possible with ezpm.php (in the root of your eZ installation), but there are some unresolved bugs related to ezpm:
- call to undefined function export: http://ez.no/bugs/view/8718
- Error: (eZFileHandler::copy) Unable to open source file in read mode: http://ez.no/bugs/view/8821

But I think importing will work fine.

For more info on how to use ezpm, read: http://ez.no/products/ez_publish/documentation/ez_publish_3_4/content_object_export_with_ezpm

Hi again!

I gave it a try, but it failed:

 Failed importing package /home/hero/hero_old.ezpkg

Could it be related to the fact that the package I created, was created on a 3.6.10 system, whereas the import was tried on a system running 3.8.3?

The package contains content, media, design and users.
