I go to Import/Export and hit PNphpBB, hit import, and I get this:

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: pnphpbb_ws_ in /home/farforum/public_html/impex/ImpExSession.php on line 115

I have no idea what this means. I uploaded all the files in ASCII and overwrote them several times, but still nothing. What I find most odd is that it's referencing files off my hard drive as part of the error.

Any help would be appreciated.

Are you sure the soruce in your ImpexConfig.php file is correct? Double-check this info, then reupload the latest Impex files, then run this query:

DELETE FROM datastore WHERE title='ImpExSession';

Then try the import again.

It is correct. I have even tried several different combos for the Impex Config file, and each time I have done the

DELETE FROM datastore WHERE title='ImpExSession';

before re-trying as you advised. However, still no luck.

The table prefix for the source DB is nuke_, as in nuke_authors or nuke_posts. Does the config file require me to use the _ or am I good without it? (Just for the record, I've tried it several ways, but each has failed.)

When I was creating the source database in phpMyAdmin, I had to copy/paste it into the SQL query box. Could this be an issue? I have heard it is not always advisable to do it this way, but the file was small (6 megs) and I don't have SSH access.

Yes, you need to use this prefix:

nuke_

Note: The only reliable method of backing up and restoring a database is with shell access via telnet or ssh. Please see the instructions here:

Man, I feel like an idiot. Somehow when I was re-uploading the files, WS_FTP.log got included in /PNphpbb and that's what was messing up the works.

Thanks for the assistance, it's working perfectly now. :)
