ChiliProject is not maintained anymore. Please be advised that there will be no more updates.
We do not recommend that you setup new ChiliProject instances and we urge all existing users to migrate their data to a maintained system, e.g. Redmine. We will provide a migration script later. In the meantime, you can use the instructions by Christian Daehn.

Updated by Sven Fischer at 2012-04-04 07:54 am
I have added a preliminary version of my reworked mantis migration script. I based my work on http://www.webismymind.be/page/fr/17/migrate-mantis-120rc1-to-redmine.html applied the patch from #942, and added the monkey patch from https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994-ruby-on-rails/tickets/2283 Additionally I added some work to migrate the bug history, but this may not be complete (missing a large database for testing).
- File migrate_from_mantis.rake added

If you haven't already, I suggest you also look at http://www.redmine.org/issues/10532. I found many more problems along the way to getting a working script (with Redmine) and left the patch there which solved all that I found.
I did manage to migrate my database (it had about 400 issues). Unfortunately I can let you have a copy to test since much of it is commercially sensitive stuff for my clients.

Sorry that should have said CAN'T let you have a copy of my database. (tried editing the original but it wouldn't let me)

Did you use my script or your patched one? If you find the time, merging your and my approach would make sense to let it be incorporated into the source repository...

I only used my patched script, and only on Redmine itself.
I don't really understand Ruby - so I wouldn't feel competent to merge things. I did what I could to get it working. I invite you to take it and try to merge.
Some of the bugs I found might be related to using sqlite as the destination database. Time values are stored as INTs (seconds from 1970) in Mantis, and were being left as left as Ints in the conversion. The other major change was turning off the automatic update time, since all my issues were showing last updated at the time of migration (despite the script trying to set the time from the Mantis database).
