I'm not familiar with that imported but does it ask for a location of the attachments?Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

yes it does, and when i put it in, it can find some, but not all. then it says all files have failed.Comment

do i need to move all attachments to the new dir for VB?Comment

It finds 'some but not all'? I'm afraid I don't understand. If the directory is correct and the files are undamaged, it should import everything that is there.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

This sounds like bad files to tell the truth. Is your SMF forum still up and running?Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

I can't import attachments from SMF either
Was this problem ever resolved? It's happening to me, too. I give it the path for the attachments but the import fails.Comment
-
The log messages flash past me so quickly that I can't see them. Are these viewable somewhere?
After it finishes, it says 0 attachments imported, 47 attachments failed to import.Comment

Neither of these is true. I can see the files in the directory in my FTP program, and I copied and pasted the path from within SMF. I can see the attachments in SMF, so the path is correct and the files exist.Originally posted by Jerry
These attachments are actually avatars. SMF puts custom avatars in the attachments directory. Could this be relevant somehow?Comment

One of them is true.Originally posted by permutations
What is shown as a path by a FTP client and what the actual local file system path can be two diffrent things.
Avatars and attachments are two diffrent things, one is linked to the user and the SMF importer dosn't import avatars atm, the other is linked to posts.
I suggest starting a support ticket and asking for me so I can figure out what the local path is.Comment
