this is what i have been doing so far.
- Install vBulletin.
- Configure vBulletin.
when thats all done, i run phpMyAdmin, then i import my backup from my old board. it starts importing, but when its nearly finished i get an error, and then it corrupts the database or something.
oldserver = backup
newserver = trying to import backup from oldserver
i was going to try the thing that was posted on how to import it, but i dont have telnet access on both servers.
is there meant to be a special method or step to backup and import to another server? i have successfully imported users, "forum", threads, posts, moderators.
but when i try to access sections of the control panel, like "User Groups and Permissions" and make some settings, when i try to save it, i get an error.
if vBulletin has a utility that "backup" the database, why doesnt it have an "import" utitlity for when people change servers?
Thanx in advance,
