    Question answered, please lock/delete

    At the moment I'm running a phpbb forum and am migrating to vBulletin. I have my test vBulletin forum running now on the same server and database as my existing phpbb forum.

    When running the import, can I use the same database to export the data from and import it to? i.e. my config file will be pointing at the same database for source and target?

    Thanks,


    Mike.

    Please do not email or PM me for vBulletin support. I will be more than glad to answer your questions on the vB Forums and in the support system.

    Just remember that what happens in localhost, stays in localhost.
