I just got done importing my phpbb 2.0.13 board over to my VB 3.6.5 board with great success. However, the one sticking point right now is that I can't get the attachments to import over. Whenever I run that particular module it says "importing 0. From 0 to 0. Then it takes me back to the module screen. I'm not getting any errors or anything. It's actually running cleanly just not importing. I've checked my server path to the attachment file and tried all the combos I can think of. Even if I put an invalid path the same thing still happens which tells me something is up. I should at least get an error there. Any advice? Thanks

Make sure you are using the complate path to this directory on the server. On Unix/Linux systems you can find the complete path name by telnetting or sshing into your server, going to that directory and typing:

Honesty, in my experience this means those attachments are bad, assuming of course you are using the correct path.

Yes, latest version. The rest of the import was flawless. What's weird is it seems like it just isn't detecting that any of the posts had attachments. I say this because I'm not getting any error messages. Impex thinks it's doing the import of 0 files.Comment

I figured it out. When I imported the old phpbb database some fields got left off. I'll give you one guess which fields they were...I'm going to restore those fields and try again. I'll let you know what happens.Comment
