Hello Im performing the merge to mybb from vB. Once i started importing the users i came across this error.
1062 - Duplicate entry '' for key 'loginname'
I've noticed some of the users with the same name have been merged, others have not. I went into the databae and I changed the user name that didnt work... so I changed the user id # so for instance i was having a conflict with user 4. This would not create a new member/ number but instead it looks like the system is blocking it and saying "hey youre not user 4, we have a user 4." So i changed the user id # this allowed me to move forward... but once again error was reached (same error). Is there a work around to this? Cuz I dont wanna manually edit 550 members in mysql. there must be an easier way?
my boards are located at http://thecrypt.org/bb/

thanks for any help you can give
Do you have any plugins enabled? I was seeing this earlier this week but I had a plugin that had added a loginname column to the users table with a unique constraint.

I used to have login / display mod installed but it was deactivated.. i later tried to reactivate the plugin and got mysql error
@vega you should make a new installation... because it will record the merge system of that...
