Oooh nice! I'll have to install phpBB sometime and try it out! Of course, it'll be a while before I get some server space and have time, and even want too look at phpBB after seeing MyBB for that matter!

P.S. Nice idea!

Good day,

I'm hoping you can offer some assistance with an error i have got with your converter. i'll start by saying that i have checked all the settings for both installations (mybb and phpbb) both boards are installed on the same database and both are working fine with no mods installed on either.

the error im getting is as follows:

mySQL error: 1146
Table 'leelad_phpb2.users' doesn't exist
Query: SELECT * FROM users WHERE user_id > 0 ORDER BY user_id LIMIT 0, 500;

I have enabled debug and it does this on all tables that it tries to import. i only have a limited knowledge of php and SQL but it appears that its looking for the table called "users" when it should be looking for "phpbb_users" is that right? any assistance would be spot on.

Ta.

What is the value of your phpBB2 config.php variable $table_prefix ? Afaik it seems to be empty.

Also you can try to add:

if (!file_exists($phpbb_path . '/config.php')) {
   die("Check your $phpbb_path value and try again!");
}

before the lines:

// include phpbb2 config file
require $phpbb_path . '/config.php';
