Installing & Impex PHP error

[ehoffman73]

I have the dreaded stack overflow error migrating posts from SMF to 3.6.2. It happens at the exact same spot every time, somewhere between 132,000 and the 134,000th post. I can see the post run before this one, but I can't figure out the next post in sequence so I can kill it to keep on rolling.

Stack overflow is usually due to something funky in the post....so how can I drill down to find the next post its importing??

VB 3.6.2
W2k3
IIS 6.0
PHP 5.1.6
MySQL 5.0.26
Zend 3.01

What dreaded stack overflow?

[ehoffman73]

"PHP has encountered a stack overflow" Completely stops the post import. Just need to hurdle that bad post record somehow.

Usually a result of ISAPI php on Win platform when there is a jacked up post.

[Zachery]

Thats the entire error message?

[ehoffman73]

Exactly.

I cant figure out how to identify what post is causing it. Other than that, we are ready to be a fully operational VB board.

[ehoffman73]

Is there a way, looking at the import script, to determine which post is causing the break?

Not really.


This may be a server time and/or memory limit. To temporarily up your limits edit your includes/config.php file and add these lines right under the <?php line:

ini_set('memory_limit', 32 * 1024 * 1024);
ini_set("max_execution_time", "480");

This did not help, just tried to reimport again. Stops at the very same spot.

Course, I started the import from where it left off from inside the admin area. Did not see the php error this time, it just stopped. executed under 60 seconds to that point.

[ehoffman73]

Can't I get the query somehow, and then run it...and then look at the records around the mark where it fails?

That seems like an option?

I am rerunning it from scratch now.

Moving this to the Import forum so Jerry will see it.

I've added the source post id to the display for SMF now, it will display to the left of the % so you can track the rogue source post.

You'll need to download ImpEx again and upload and overwrite the file :

impex/systems/smf/007.php

That was what I needed, thanks. Found the post that was the issue and things are moving again. Great support, thanks
