4. After moving my old Data.fs to Zope 2.8 I get an
"AttributeError, _length" when trying to use the ZCatalog?
In Zope 2.8 we cleaned up the index implementations and therefore
you need to migrate every single ZCatalog manually:
- go to the ZMI
- click on your ZCatalog instance (or portal_catalog inside
your CMF or Plone instance)
- you will get an "AttributeError, _length"...don't panic
- call the "manage_convertIndexes" method of the ZCatalog
(by replacing the "manage_main" part of the URL with
"manage_convertIndexes")
- depending on the size of your ZCatalog the migration may
take a while
- after the conversion a message will appear: "Indexes
converted and reindexes"
- Notice: **YOU SHOULD BACKUP YOUR var/Data.fs file before
starting the migration**
