phpbb 2.08 import problems (split thread)

[oglsmm]

Ok i did that.


Now one question

Trying to import my phpbb forum, and on step 2 I get an sql error.


Database error in vBulletin :

Invalid SQL:

SELECT title, data

FROM datastore

WHERE title IN ('options', 'cron', 'forumcache', 'usergroupcache', 'stylecache', 'userstats', 'birthdaycache', 'maxloggedin', 'iconcache', 'eventcache', 'mailqueue')



mysql error: Table 'REMOVED' doesn't exist

mysql error number: 1146


and


Database error in vBulletin:ImpEx Source 3.0.1:

Invalid SQL:

SELECT user_id,username

FROM users

ORDER BY user_id

LIMIT 0,25

mysql error: Table 'REMOVED' doesn't exist

mysql error number: 1146


Or at least that is what the email from Vbulletin said.

Any suugestions? Perhaps I should move this to support forum..

Did you install vBulletin?

Hmmm another issue...

One the phpbb forum I have the admin account, during the install of VB I have to create an admin account as well.

So I created the amdin account using the same user name as the phpbb one. During the import I associated the phpbb admin account with the VB user ID# of the VB admin account created during install.

It seemed to work, but then it immediatly asked me to re-login to the admin section with Graphics that are very messed up and it won't take the admin acoount or password anymore.

Is it possible to keep the same admin in VB or do I have to create a default on during the install and then use that account to give the old phpbb admin account admin rights?

I think, what happened is instead of merging your old account into your new one, you merged your new account into your old one, which probaly does not have admin rights.

After the import is 100% done, you should use the merge feature of vBulletin to merge your old account into your new one so you retain Admin access, and you should create a backup admin account for good measure
