Review migrated data in Drupal 8/9

[steinmb]

Naked migrated site https://new.machine-vision.no/ ready to check missing content, links, images, video etc. Please ignore layout and funky position of our data. Our job is just to make sure it is there and correct. User accounts are migrated and should work as expected.

Known issues

1. Location (country) is not baked into the migration but are going to be added back after we have done the final migrating and replaced our current production site. In other words ignore that it is missing from persons. If interested you can track it's progress in issue #88.
2. Character sexuality field is missing - I am going to tackle that in issue #92
3. In Persons the two blocks listing works and contributed works are not there. Follow issue #93 for progress on that.

How to test

• Check all the different content types we have. All data from the old site should be there.
• Verify that images, files and videos are there.
• Taxonomy terms are also migrated and should be checked.
• Verify that content revisions are there and contain information and not empty.

Stuff that might stump you, permissions. The new site have only so fare been tested by root/admin/sudo/user1/Odin, an user that where permissions are not validated. I have migrated all the old user groups to the new site. These groups did we inherited from ELMCIP and I feel that they do not fit us at all and I would like to drop all of them all except the admin group that Jill and my personal account uses. The remaining users should all have same access.

This looks great! I logged in as "Jill" and didn't see any problems. There are some things not really to do with the data itself, like the links in the intro text on https://new.machine-vision.no/knowledgebase go to the old URLs, but that's easily fixed (or maybe fixes itself when the URL is changed). The list of entries belonging to a specific technology, like here https://new.machine-vision.no/knowledgebase doesn't need full entries, could just be a list of titles (maybe with genre) but that's not a big deal to fix later. Otherwise I didn't see any problems.

Back links from an Creator to works the creator created aren't there. But that's not about the data, that's about making views and stuff.

I think that is known issue number 3, right?

[jilltxt]

Oh, that's what that issue meant. Thanks :)

So if we are just to check if all content is there I did not find anything missing so far. However, non of the links are working. I can only go back to the list of works. If I click on Type, Tech, Sentiment etc. links then I just get to the newest work added, not the list. But I am not sure if this was something we should comment on yet.

Thanks for the feedback. The link in the knowledgebase block work, it is just us listing the content differently. The way it was you got a looong list of articles tagged with that term if you just kept scrolling. Like this:

@LindaKairus Not very practical, I know :) I have changed it to something that is similar to how the old installation do it. Example: https://new.machine-vision.no/taxonomy/term/168

Hooked up the live Drupal 7 database in production and checked our content.

A little drift in data. That is normal. Last night though I put Drupal 7 version in read only mode so these are data that changed before that.

[steinmb]

Since we also had changed/new files I had to map up the Drupal storage area. Did an update of the data types that had changed.
