Migrate from 1.1.9 to latest 2: lost shipping methods, payments and other stuff

hi.

I'm performing a migration from a 1.1.9 install to 2.0.12f.
Steps:

  • Remove VM's plugin and modules
  • Copy images
  • Remove components/com_virtuemart and administration/components/com_virtuemart
  • Install com_virtuemart.2.0.12f.zip
  • Execute Data migration tool
As a result I get most of my customers, most of the orders, but:

  • in order details row totals are all 0, even if the product price and the order total are correctly set
  • in order details there are no shipping and payment details
  • shipment and payment methods are empty (while there were A LOT in the 1.1 shop)
  • taxes: empty
Products and categories looks fine, but I wish I'd keep all my order history with details...

Did I do something wrong? The only thing I omitted from some posts I saw elsewhere is to install sample data, since it's a fully running shop I believe I don't need them.

Any hint?
thanks in advance

You may have needed to "Start migration" again to migrate all the orders. (Step 14 on the FAQ, http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=95236.0 )

You cannot transfer the shipment and payment methods, or the tax setup to VM2 as these are handled in a very different way in this version. Once you have images associated with products etc you can start to set up Payment and Shipping plugins and your Tax/calculation rule(s).

Thanks for the link.
Still orders don't contain line totals...

Anyway, if I manually enter payment and shipping methods BEFORE the migration, is it possible to mantain this information into the imported orders?
thanks

I migrated from VM 1.1.9 to VM 2 but I lost tax in final prices of the products.

Is there any way to apply tax to all products instead of applying one by one. I have around 5000 products in my store and it's not possible to edit the products one by one.

Make one tax rule - under Products/Taxes & Calculation Rules  - do not assign it to a category, shopper group or vendor and then it will apply to all products.

Thank you for your response. I have created one tax rule and didn't assign it to any category or group but the rule has not applied to any of the products. I have attached the screenshots.

I just ran the following query and the problem resolved

UPDATE PREFIX_virtuemart_product_prices
SET product_tax_id='1'
