Importing Attachment Question

[RichieBoy67]

So you are saying to import the database with 700megs of attachments inside? No thanks... Actually I meant 7,000 megs...lol

At any rate, currently the attachments are in the file system and most are actually installed already. I cannot run impex because it will not allow me to do so unless I rerun the post module which will take hours.

Right now I just need to know if there is a way I can move the rest of the attachments into the new site whether it be the file system or database doesn't matter. I am not exactly sure how to proceed from here.

Thanks so much for your replies though. I really appreciate any effort. I have had literally 25 minutes of sleep in the past 2 days so I know I am not think too clearly, like I ever think clearly. haha I have spent many hours rebuilding this site and style and everything is all set minus some attachments..

FYI--The reason the attachments didn't make it through the process is because there were 2 attachments that were too large for php to deal with. I am taking many megs so this is why we stopped.

I planned on just redoing the module but ofcourse firefox crashed on me and when I went back in it would not allow me to redo the module.

If I am stuck redoing the posts again plus the attachments it means this site will be down for another few hours. This is a fairly large site so the import process just takes for ever...

Thanks again..
