No messages. The screen is blank. I’m exporting from a WordPress.com site with no plugins. I don’t know if WordPress.com blcks access to attachments. If they do, that would be profoundly stupid.

If I checked the include attachments option, I got two attachments downloaded, and the rest failed. If I don’t check the attachments option, the import is successful (posts and users).

php.ini is set to 20MB, so it’s not a size problem. Perhaps I’m missing a php extension?

I got farther than I did with my blog, but it still failed to upload some attachments.

All done. Have fun!

Remember to update the passwords and roles of imported users

I’ve never gotten the All done part before.

I don’t know what the theme unit test data is. Enlighten me.

How does that help me? You may not have a problem, but I do. I’d like to resolve it, if that’s possible.

Well, I gave up on importing the attachments. The import tool fails every time. I even tried the wordpress-import-extended plugin, and that failed as well. Since it depends on the wordpress-import plugin, I assume the problem is in it somewhere.

If I don’t check the box for attachments, the import works fine (but of course I don’t have the attachments.)

So I changed course and installed the wordpress-flash-uploader plugin, which is supposed to sync files already in the default location of wp-content/uploads/, but it fails as well.

So, how can I get these attachments reattached to their posts? Am I going to have to do this completely manually? Ugh.

Finally I’m getting some input, but it’s an error:

Your website needs to be publicly accessible to use Jetpack: site_inaccessible

Error Details: The Jetpack server was unable to communicate with your site [IXR -32300: transport error: http_request_failed SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed]

I’m using a self-signed certificate. Is that the problem?
