Migration from AEC to Membership Pro

Thanks Calum for your help. I have Tony on my Skype contacts now, so I will ask him for more details when he is available. He is using AEC at the moment, so I think it will be easier to ask him about it

I will update this topic once I heard from him and ask you more questions if needed

How is it going with the Paypal notification? from AEC? We have been waiting patiently for this.

Thanks

Hi

Today, I finally could complete the plugin which can routing IPN messages from AEC to Membership Pro. To be honest, I don't know whether it works well as I don't use AEC, so we won't know if it works well until someone uses it.

If there is any issues found when it is used, I would be happy to work close with you to get the issue sorted.

To have the AEC recurring subscription still works with Membership Pro, please :

1. Go to Extension -> Plugins, install this plugin plug_system_aec2osmembership.zip. Publish it



2. Go to Membership Pro -> Payment Plugins, install this modified payment plugin (once someone confirmed it works well, I can add this to default package so that you don't have to worry when updating to future releases of the extension)



3. Then wait for next recurring payment from AEC, check and make sure the related subscription in Membership Pro is extended/ renewed properly

Please note that to have it works, please don't delete the table #__acctexp_invoices from the site database (even after all data is migrated properly to Membership Pro)

Regards,

Tuan

Sorry. There was a typo in the modified os_paypal payment plugin, so if you downloaded it before I post this comment, please re-download it

I installed your migrator on my dev site for AEC.
I hit the clear exisiting data
I hit start the migration
It returned this error

An error has occurred.
1054 Unknown column 'lifetime' in 'field list' SQL=SELECT id, name, `desc`, `active`, `ordering`, `params`, lifetime FROM #__acctexp_plans ORDER BY id

I suppose I could use phpmyadmin and figure out a way to remove column 'lifetime' in 'field list' ?
Update:
I removed the column "lifetime" in the acctexp_subscr table it returned same result
it also states this after it returns the message

Message

"4 categories migrated. Now, the system will migrating plans"

Thank you

Hi Matt

Sorry for lately response. I am now busy working to finish new version 2.6.0 of the extension

Back to the issue, I think you have this error because you are trying to use the migrator with old version of AEC ? As I was working on the migrator base on latest version of AEC, I think you should first update your site to latest version of AEC first, then try again ?

I am using Account Expiration Control Component
Version 1.2, Revision 6726
