Hi everyone,
I am a beginner to this but I was able to upload the newest version of vBulletin and get it working on the server. Now I need to import my older phpBB forum to the new vB software. So...
...I downloaded ImpEx, changed the files that needed changed, and uploaded that. On the vB AdminCP it now shows the Import ->Import option but when I click on it it says:
"Not Found
The requested URL was not found on this server."
Any ideas what I may have done wrong?
Thank you for your help!

Maybe I should ask, "What URL is it trying to find"?:confused:

Where did you install Impex and where are you running it from?

Impex is installed on the same server and under the 'forums' (which is what I named my vB) folder. So it would be...httpdocs>forums>Impex
My old forum is located...httpdocs>phpBB
The cpnav_impex.xml file is moved to httpdocs>forums>Includes>xml
I believe all the information is entered correctly on the ImpExConfig.php file. I know you don't have the ability to know what values I need to input in this file, but I'm using 'localhost' for both the target and source. The username and password is obvious for me and for $impexconfig['target']['database'] I have 'forums and for $impexconfig['source']['database'] I have 'phpBB'
Does anything come to mind that could be incorrect?
Thank you very much!

As I found in you ticket, the problem was that you named the impex directory 'ImpEx' instead of 'impex'. I changed this and it works now.
Please note that directory and file names are case-sensitive.

I sincerely thank you for your efforts and expertise. I don't think I would have caught that error in a million years! Now I can get started importing.
