Re: phpBB to punBB 2.0b3

Don't now if it's important, but when I click back to the "settings window" (where you have to fill in host,username,password etc..), all the information I put in is there and it seems the only the database username is changed automatically to "symen" (that's not the one I used en put in!!)... Little bit strange?

Re: phpBB to punBB 2.0b3

Re: phpBB to punBB 2.0b3

I think I found where it is going wrong. The name "symen" who comes automatically in the database username field (see 2 posts above) is a user of my forum who stays in the banlist. When I delete him from the banlist it seems the converter is working properly at page 7/8.

But now I have the following error's.
on variable page 9:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An error was encountered
File: /usr/home/u2u/domains/u2u.nl/public_html/forum2/convert/PhpBB/end.php
Line: 34

Converter reported: Unable to save word
Database reported: Duplicate entry '1' for key 1 (Errno: 1062) 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And on variable page "done":
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in /usr/home/u2u/domains/u2u.nl/public_html/forum2/convert/functions.php on line 124
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It;s not important for me cause the whole database is migrated and it works fine. But mabye you have something to do with this errors...

Thanks for this great tool!
