ValueError: empty string for float() after migrating tickets from Bugzilla To Trac

[Barry]

I have run Bugzilla2Trac and after an issue eventually got the Bugzilla tickets migrated. The first issue was

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python24\Scripts\bugzilla2trac.py", line 887, in ?
    main()
  File "C:\Python24\Scripts\bugzilla2trac.py", line 884, in main

    return function(self, *args, **kwargs)
pysqlite2.dbapi2.IntegrityError: columns ticket, time, field are not unique

I got around this by introducing OR IGNORE in the INSERT INTO ticket & INSERT INTO ticket_changes clause. This migrated the changes

However when I go to Trac and click on "View Tickets" and select "All Tickets By Milestone (Including closed)" I get the following error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\trac\web\main.py", line 387, in dispatch_request

This may or may not help, but I was able to get around this bug by altering the time in the bugs_when column in the bugs_activity table so that the times were unique. It took about 5 min, but after that it imported with no problems.

Sorry, I should be more specific. This is regarding the "pysqlite2.dbapi2.IntegrityError?: columns ticket, time, field are not unique" error.

use the format #,###.00

As I understand, Trac doesn't allow more than one ticket change per second, as (id, time) is used as a key to a set of changes, and time is stored as seconds since the epoch.

Maybe Bugzilla2Trac could be adapted to delay multiple changes in the same second to subsequent seconds?

About the other error, it looks as if the report you are trying to view returns an empty string for a column that is supposed to be formatted as a date.
