Any hints for this?
The XML is from a hosted WP blog. Another XML from a self-hosted blog was imported successfully ....

from wp2tumblr.rb:66

No ideas. These errors are thrown from rexml: The default XML parser as used by crack. My best guess would be that the hosted blog xml-feed is invalid somehow and REXML is balking. Experiment with replacing lines 66-67 with a different XML parser, such as hpricot or nokogiri. They might be less restrictive.

I just had the same error message as rubycs mentioned. Remove this line from the XML file and it should work:
<atom:link rel="next" href="http://blabla" />

I got that error also, and removing that line also fixed it.

I'm getting something new though:

./wp2tumblr:76: undefined method 'uniq' for "meta":String (NoMethodError)
from ./wp2tumblr:70:in 'collect'
from ./wp2tumblr:70`

Any ideas?

Maybe something like:

post.tags item['category'].uniq if item['category'].class == Array
post.tags item['category'].split if item['category'].class == String

Please improve that as you want, I'm very amateur :) This seems to work though, and removes the error.

@judsond Worked here for self hosted Wordpress import.

Thanks.

Does this still work? I'm getting this when I try to run the script:

Looks like this gist may be out of date with its dependencies. @mwunsch, any chance of an update?

I'd love an update as well. Thanks! @mwunsch
