Hello,
i'm trying to merge from phpBB3 to MyBB. I've uploaded the convert folder, followed the steps in the guide, then i've chose the phpbb 3.
I've wrote everithing right in Database Configuration, path, user, database, password and i get this error:


"The phpBB 3 database could not be found in 'mdpxte_forum'. Please ensure phpBB 3 exists at this database and with this table prefix."

The problem is that i have 2 databases - the old one with phpbb3 and the new one with MyBB ( i think this is the way?).
So i don't have third one or another one. Can anyone give me a shoulder on this one?
Thanks in advance!
If it's saying the details are wrong then the details are wrong... are you putting in the same details as what's in the phpBB config file??
Well i didn't consider the phpbb3 configs... i made new user and assigned him to the old data base.
Will try to correct the things later, thanks Matt
