Restore hangs at Restoring MT::ObjectScore

Vote 0 Votes

I'll be the first to admit I'm clueless when it comes to Movable Type. Heck the whole fancy 'blog and publishing systems idea. I'm a sysadmin. Give me vi and the blink tag and I'm set. However, I've been assigned to a project to import a new blog. I thought I was making a lot of progress. I'm the most knowledgeable Moveable Type user which isn't saying much.

I've successfully installed Moveable Type:
* Movable Type version: 4.361
* Current working directory: /apps/websites/mt

When I try to restore it stop at the following message:
Restoring MT::ObjectScore records:

The following is in the apache error_log:
[Thu Aug 18 17:11:22 2011] [error] [client 10.12.1.111] Restoring MT::ObjectScore records:, referer: http://www.jefftest.com/cgi-bin/mt.cgi?__mode=start_restore
[Thu Aug 18 17:13:24 2011] [warn] [client 10.12.1.111] Timeout waiting for output from CGI script /apps/websites/mt/mt.cgi, referer: http://www.jefftest.com/cgi-bin/mt.cgi?__mode=start_restore
[Thu Aug 18 17:13:24 2011] [error] [client 10.12.1.111] (70007)The timeout specified has expired: ap_content_length_filter: apr_bucket_read() failed, referer: http://www.jefftest.com/cgi-bin/mt.cgi?__mode=start_restore

I've cranked up Moveable Types Debug Mode to 128 and yet the logs aren't even showing so I don't have anyplace else to turn.

So can someone help with one of these questions:
1. Why is restore stopping at MT::ObjectScore?
2. What can I do to get more logging so I can get more information to solve this problem on my own?

  • Are you saying that you've exported a blog and are trying to import it now to a different installation?

    Have you tried to increase your server CGI execution time limit? Looking at the apache error log my understanding is that the mt.cgi script is timing out.

  • Mihai,
    Thanks for your response and apologies for not responding sooner. My problem was resolved with some SELinux tuning. All is good now.

    Thanks again for the response,
    Jeff
