Hi,

What is the currrent status on importing PhpBB3 attachments into MyBB. Is it still broken ? Did anyone succesfully merge from phpbb3 to MyBB ?

Thanks !

Update:

My phpBB attachments are in http://www.mydomain.com/files
I have create a .htaccess to allow all
I can open attachments with the browser by going directly to the attachement: http://www.mydomain.com/files/57_559ac7f...4ca43d14f2
Attachements are stored as 57_559ac7f9d211efd8e1eeb14ca43d14f2 (no extension)
My site runs on Apache/linux, i have made the /httpdocs/files readable for everyone

Still: the Merge log says "cannot find attachement #125" etc.

What I have noticed: the merge script loads the url to the phpbb attachments automatically from the config as http://www.mydomain.com//files (double slashes). Is this correct ?

I'm wondering: why can't the script find the attachments ? It loads the attachement from the phpBB db, the url is accessible for everyone. My conclusion: the url retrieved from the db is incorrect. How can we debug this ?

Bump.

Is there a way to get extra logging ? The report only says "Cannot find attacment ...." I'd like to see WHAT it is looking for. None of the attachements are copied to the new folder.
