Importing problem

[riverwire]

Hi im getting this problem



Altering tables

ImpEx will now Alter the tables in the vB database to include import id numbers.This is needed during the import process for maintaining refrences between the tables during an import.If you have large tables (i.e. lots of posts) this can take some time.They will also be left after the import if you need to link back to the origional vB userid.

Any help would be great

I'd guess you either on h41mysql19 or mysql243 and one account dosn't have the permissions to access the other ?

Try copying all the source tables into the same database that vBulletin is in and setting source and target as the same, as long as there is a table prefix to stop any name clashes.

If you have all red tables, i.e. none correct this could possible be your table prefix :


phpbb_album_ Failed Check database permissions and connection, or table prefix to ensure its correct

Sorry i know your busy but i need to get this working before tomorrow night, surely there is someone else apart from Jerry that knows IMPEX ?

If you have all red tables, i.e. none correct this could possible be your table prefix :

phpbb_album_ Failed Check database permissions and connection, or table prefix to ensure its correctThis means that your table prefix for your scource database is incorrect and is likely to be phpbb_ or phpbb_album_

Well ImpEx was trying to tell you :

I'd guess KA is right and it's phpbb_
