I could not select the correct version. It was not ImpEx 1.0 but ImpEx 1.82.
I hope that my other bug report (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/project.php?issueid=22582) can be moved here since I had to work around this bug by mysql importing the databases into a Win2k3 server system and do the ImpEx import there. But I still run onto many other errors:
It all goes well until the "Import Private messages" module. It says it's importing 2000 private messages but when it's done it says: "Successful: 0" "Failed: 0" "Time taken: 9 sec(s)". Now I haven't completed the import yet so I don't know if it's actually done anything but this seems pretty weird already.
With "Import moderator" it says this a bunch of times:
Invalid ImpExData object, skipping. Failed on : forumid
While I'm not sure what the error is, I'm not too concerned with that as I can remake the moderators manually pretty easily, should this be needed.
"Import attachments" is the second thing (after the private messages which seem lost) I'm concerned about. I've checked both the source and the target forum repeatedly. Both attachment system is working fine. Both are set to file system, both have ability to write and yet it doesn't want to import:
Source file not found :: C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mysourcedomain.com\httpdocs\atta chments/3/4/7/436.attach
Source file not found :: C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mysourcedomain.com\httpdocs\atta chments/3/0/1/437.attach
Source file not found :: C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mysourcedomain.com\httpdocs\atta chments/9/9/2/438.attach
Source file not found :: C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mysourcedomain.com\httpdocs\atta chments/8/4/1/439.attach
etc.
I've checked again but the source's attachments are showing and working fine but it just doesn't want to import them. Going to these paths manually will show the proper file as well.
Then "Import smilies": I saw a bunch of errors in between the green/ok messages. Clicked on redo module and tried 5 per cycle, hoping I could catch the error message then and now it says:
Importing 21 Smilies
Failed :: Smilie not imported :-> (21 lines of this, I assume. It goes too fast to count)
And it's in an endless loop now. The page keeps refreshing with the same errors over and over.
Now even if I try to reload the page entire, after filling in my customer number it comes straight back into this endless loop.
I've once skipped this stage and at the last stage, "Import Avatars" I'm pretty sure it was, it also had an odd error as the importer frooze entirely at what appeared to be the end of the avatar importing process. The final page did not show a continue button or anything.
Source and target are both: vBulletin 3.6.7 PL1
Lots of errors. I hope to get some help so I can get these imports over with.
