We have completed a basic UBB.Threads and phpBB Importer, and are working on Invision and VB as I type.

Does the importer do the job of updating usergroups or is that a separate utility as in Nikos' version? |

Hi, Will the importer only work for version 6.5.2? We are still on UBBT 6.4.1 and are having problems using Nikos' importer (the script will not go beyond step 3). Will we need to upgrade to 6.5.2 first? Oh, and any timeframe? ![]() We are having some serious problems with our server at the moment and need to move to a new server ASAP. We'd like to be able to at the same time move to FusionBB. Sanuk!

I have a site that is running VB 3.5.3 that I'm going to use as a jumping off point/testbed for hacking up my main site which is running a hybrid version of Threads 6.5.x. The sooner I can get my hands on these converters, the better. Thanks!

I have some sites running 6.4 as well so I'm working on an importer for that version. It wont be in the 2.0 release package but I'll drop it in the members area when it's finished. Right now it's half working. lol

I just finished importing threads 6.4 into fusion 2.0 ![]() I'll be releasing 2.0 Beta 5 on Monday. It didn't take long for a bunch of bugs to show up in beta 4. Hopefully the next one wont have the same bugs. lol

I need to do a 6.4 import test board so I can actually get use to using fusion. Had to wait for mpp to get added. Glad we are finally there but now I need to get caught on on even the basics.

Yeah I took a bit longer than planned for MPP. Rather than tack it on like we had to do with threads it's built in with fusion. It makes for a much better environment all around.

That's right - we were waiting on 2.0 to do your real install. I sent you a PT.

I fixed him. His database got changed in his config file.

Was it a bug on our part though? Did the config file not get updated correctly?

Yeah, all was fine. I think he was trying to use a secondary database which didn't have fusion tables.
|

DaveFusionBB Zealot Posts 8909 |
12-07-06 11:34 PM - Post#38917
I'm not sure I follow. He was importing to tables other than the tables fusion was installed to? That shouldn't be possible?

No I think he just changed the name of his database from the admin area to a database that didn't exist.

it was me I was trying to use what I thought was a backup of my current threads database and it timed out doing the import and since I couldn't see any changes in the fusion I tried switching database addresses, which locked me out... doh I need to try from a backup database of my current threads, but I don't have the skill to backup that database to try it. It is a fairly large database and since I screwed up some stuff on the site lately I need to try it from a backup and get stuff setup before going making the full switch.

If you have ssh access issue this from the command line: mysqldump -u YourDBuserName -p YourDBname > YourDBname.sql You'll be prompted for the db user's password. After it's finished you can import it to your test database: mysql -u YourTestDBuserName -p YourTestDBname < YourDBname.sql You may want to tar/compress that sql file with: tar cfz YourDBname.sql.tar.gz YourDBname.sql Then download that to your computer.

I am only looking to make a backup so I can use that for my test board. Need to iron out the wrinkles before I import live. ON vertex but don't see ssh in the control panel

You probably don't have ssh access then.

How do I know if the importer is working. I have tried several times to import and when I check the fusionbb database it hasn't moved any posts. It does say I lose connection but thats after 50-100 screen refreshes.

It should say where it's at, such as 1500 to 2000 users. If you can send me login/ftp info for your site and let me know what the database is your using then I can see if I can figure out what's going on.

I've got his info dave and will check it out. He's already got a database copy in the forum2 database. So he shouldn't need to worry about making a copy.
