The advised way to move between vBulletin versions is to upgrade.

Hello

I asked before about a problem in my current forum
please check it http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=231909

So I started the Impex and get this error and want to know how to solve it.

Thanks a lot

Have you tried an upgrade even with the hacks ?

Then what the errors you are getting on the usergroup and user module.

As there were failures there it is pointless running the rest of the modules because they are dependant.

[Ava-Kyrillos]

Sorry
I can't understand you.
Can you tell me now about the failed ,
Or I make it again form the begging.

Thanks a lot

When you ran the user and usergroup module it would of said :

"Failed : Invalid ....."

What was the error on the screen ?

[Ava-Kyrillos]

Hello

the usergroup didn't give any failed.
but the user gives me 7 failed and the error message:
"Invalid ImpExData object, skipping. Failed on: email"


But the important thing to me the "Posts" and "Pols"

Note: one of the forums in the old DB was created for Admins only with a permissions for that.
No post or Threads I found in this forum.

And some forums get in other places under other main forum.

I hope it be clear.

Thanks a lot

Yes this is more clear

What is the error when importing posts ?

"Failed :: userid invalid" etc ?

[Ava-Kyrillos]

Hello

It gives me "Failed on: userid"

Thanks a lot

The user did not get imported as he did not have a valid email address.

The posts need a valid imported user, so all posts made by the rejected users will also not be imported.

To solve this make sure that your original user (on the source database) is valid and restart the import.

[Ava-Kyrillos]

Hello

How I know the user is valid and restart the import.
or How I know which 7 users the system didn't import.

Thanks a lot

It will say so during the import.

In your example the user "bouno" has this problem.

[Ava-Kyrillos]

Hello

I can't see all users, becuase the pages is redirect to next page very quickly and I can't take a capture form all wrong users.

I ask if there are any in the database I can check to know this users.

Thanks a lot

Please await ImpEx 1.82 as it should be able to import posts made by guests for a vB import. The new version will probably be released this week.
