I'm trying to convert my vBulletin forums to MyBB, but when I'm importing posts, 240 of about 350,000 posts get imported, then the script stops and pausing and resuming it doesn't get any more posts imported. Here are some php.ini settings:
max_execution_time = 3600     ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
max_input_time = 3600	; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 1024M      ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)

What could have gone wrong?
There is a known issue of this happening, but no one has yet figured out why. Something causes the script to stall on data it reads from your old db. It happens with more than vB as well. Do you happen to have any very large posts and/or a lot of umlauts?

I don't think so. Sad
Thank you for your reply.
may be its possible to do the conversion on local host & later uploaded to the web host ..
