Good Day,
I have tried performing a migration from phpBB 3.2.6 to MyBB everything goes well until I get to the avatar and attachment merge which then keeps giving an error:
This is unfortunately not the full message only part that I could remember currently as to get the error I would need to do a full install again. I tried having the URL point directly to the localhost path as the db and forums are on the same server to no avail.
I have skipped this step to see if any other parts has gone wrong but will be doing a fresh install again as these avatars and attachments need to be moved across, I then found that posts that have been moved over has gotten all messed up with "formatting code" in all the posts. See attachment for what is being seen.
I have done a few searches and can't seem to find the solution to either of the problems. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
