I keep getting errors..
-------------------------------------------
Error: Unable to locate PunBB!
Please put the converter in the PunBB root directory.
-------------------------------------------
I've tired loading it in the main directory 'punbb' then making a folder called converter 'punbb/converter' both tries gave me errors..
any suggestions/links?
is punbb installed? i'm not sure how the convertor works but i think it needs punbb to be installed with a config.php to begin with
Are you trying to use it with PunBB 1.2 perhaps?
yea i have 1.2 installed.. is there a newer or older version it works with? then i could just upgrade the lower version if need be or how does this work?
The converter does not support PunBB 1.2 at this time. The only way to convert from phpBB to PunBB 1.2 is to first convert to PunBB 1.1 and then upgrade to 1.2.
is punbb installed? i'm not sure how the convertor works but i think it needs punbb to be installed with a config.php to begin with
it is.. and config is there, punBB is up and running fine..
thank you!!! I appreciate it, im'a try it out right now.. i'll let ya know..
I downloaded 1.1 and "overwrite all" to upload all the files, then uploaded the convert overwritting all aswell.. and it still gave me the same msg...? try 1.0?
I just tried 1.0 aswell, and it still gives me the same msg, whats goin on?
it should work on 1.1.* or 1.2 are you 100% sure you put it in the convertor folder within punbb not phpbb?
well if I recall correctly I tried 1.2, 1.1 and 1.0... but never 1.1.* so i'll give it another shot..
"Error: Unable to fetch forum config. "
the config.php file is there..
Enable debug mode and paste what you get
PunBB reported: Unable to fetch forum config
Database reported: Table 'shmikx_punbb.config' doesn't exist (Errno: 1146)
is that supposed to be a file? like the config.php should be shmikx_punbb.config?
ttt anyone?
What did you do? Did you overwrite your 1.2 files with the 1.1 files? You can't just do that. Re-upload the 1.2 files and then download the converter beta that supports 1.2.
no I've been deleting everything and re-uploading, uhm some folders wont delete? in the main there is cache and a few others how come they wont delete?
ok so far i've got punbb 1.2 installed w/ the converter u linked me to the converter says Convert Forum: - Select Forum -
and there is nothing besides Select forum on the menu and it wont let me continue because i didnt select anything..
nevermind i uploaded it as a folder.. got things a little mixed up..
ok, I got everything setup! thanks for the help guys!
I get this message:
