ipb -> vb3.0.3 attachments

[preatorian]

I have a problem with the attachment import from invisionboard 1.3 -> vb 3.0.3

It says to every entry that the source file cannot be found and the attachment import is skipped...

I have checked the filenames and they do exist in the upload directory that i insert... However the script doesnt seem to find them...

the upload dir path is : /home/dragonball.gr/forum_uploads/

and this is what i get

I report same problem. Found gif attachments only. I have 28 missing attachments on my site and haven't yet found a way of fixing this.

28 attachments is not so much to worry about. I have over 2000 ! :p

Will anyone in the support help us please ?

Yup yup, all filled up with sweets now.

I take it the path is correct and files do physically exsist and that there is nothing in the attachments table ?

I have exactly the same problem. I have directed the attachments module to the uploads directory on my server but I'm also getting the


Skipping, no source file.

error. Any clues on this?

Thanks

The Wolverine :D

EDIT: In fact, I'm unable to import the avatars properly as well. Even though the path I fill in is to the uploads folder on my IPB 1.3 final installation, the script isn't importing the custom avatars. I'm totally stumped. Any help at all would be appreciated.
