    PHPBB import problems

    Hello All,

    I am trying to use the PHPBB import script and having a problem. When I use the import script it imports the users fine, but then has this error when going to the next step

    Database error in vBulletin Control Panel 2.3.2:
    Invalid SQL: SELECT * FROM phpbb.nuke_categories
    mysql error: Table 'phpbb.nuke_categories' doesn't exist
    mysql error number: 1146
    Date: Saturday 13th of September 2003 03:20:36 AM
    Script: http://www.CovertSpecOps.com/forums/...ort_phpbb2.php
    Referer: http://localhost/forums/importers/bb...bleprefix=nuke_


    Problem is, there is no table named phpbb.nuke_categories The database is phpbb and the prefix is nuke_ I specified that in the first step and it imported the data fine, now it will not do the categories and forum postings. Any ideas?

    Make sure you are usig the correct phpBB forum name and prefix. I just handled an issue exactly like this and the person was using the wrong info.

      Well I think I am anyway, Why would it import the members and not the posts?

      The database name is phpbb and the prefix is nuke_

      Tried a lot of different name variations too?

          I see that Cary is already helping you in the support system. It's best to followup there.
