I have read the Manual 6 times and am still not sure about this, In the config.php file you have to edit, there is line Iam not sure about, here it is.


# If the system that is being imported from uses a database,
# enter the details for it here and set 'sourceexists' to true.
# If the source data is NOT stored in a database, set 'sourceexists' to false
$impexconfig['sourceexists'] = true;

Now where do I place the location of the database? I know its probably a Stupid question, But I have always looked at it as , A question not asked is more stupid then asking. Thanks in advance.

Then the 'target' info is your vB database info (from includes/config.php) and the 'source' info is your phpBB info.

Steve thank you for your reply. I have all the target info and source. My question is where to put the info at? ie....


$impexconfig['sourceexists'][example]= true;
$impexconfig['sourceexists'] example = true;

Do you understand my meaning? Maybe that helps.

For a phpBB import this needs to be set to 'true'

$impexconfig['sourceexists'] = true;
