Migration stuck

Hi All,

I have been gradually migrating sites from an old Plesk 7.5.4 machine to a new server running Plesk 9.5.2 (both Linux machines) for some time now but suddenly this week it's stopped working. I enter the details of the old server, it connects and lists the clients and domains that I can transfer, I select just one (any one) click through to start the transfer and the migration never gets past 0%. There are no log files being produced in /usr/local/PMM/logs I assume because the migration hasn't even got that far!

Can anyone help? Or even suggest an alternative way to transfer the sites?

Just to add some more detail to this, I've now discovered that the old machine seems to be running out of disk space on the /dev/hda1 partition when the migration is initiated from the new server. I assume it is running out of space when creating the migration files (these are very small sites I'm trying to migrate by the way). Is there any way I can change the directory that Plesk is using to store these files before migration?
 
migration disk space

When running migration from 9.3, the target machine always creates the files in /migration, even
if in the interface you specify a different destination. So you might have a look there.

I've found that the fixes in 9.3 migration manager are worth the trouble of upgrading.
