YaBB 2.0 to VB 3.6.8 so close yet so far

I would expect 4-6 hours as well.

Starting a support ticket in your members area, copy the link to this thread there as well and ask for me and I'll get the details to check out whats going on.

I finally have this back to where I can work with what is imported.

Now when I go to run cleaner.php it said Not Active
Also after I rebuild Forums, Threads and posts they still show 12-31-1969 for date and no users.

What did I miss?
At least I did get my users imported.

What do the import modules for posts and threads show? Did you follow the 'After the Import' instructions here:

This has been a nightmare procedure I have worked on since 09/12/07 and I did all but the remove Impex files.

the moderators did not come over, so I did check the permissions.

I had imported_username and found how to delete the usergroup to reclaim the users.

I did Cache and counters and nothing shows for posts. I can se e the posts in the db. There is a throttle at the server that gives me errors from time to time. This is a 250 member board and I thought this would be long done.

Ok, it was up, but the import brought in FIVE times the forums. and users.

Now instead of 251 members I have over 1700!

Also the forums I tried to delete that were named the same deleted my working forums.

ugh!

[Jerry]

That would come from refreshing the page or importing and removing the import id's and running the import again.

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

We have migrated to a new server. I am FTP'ing the remainder of the old board over and will try again with a clean import. Should go MUCH smoother since there is not the timeouts to deal with!

[Jerry]

Very much so, an import is an intensive process the more memory and CPU that you can throw at it the better.
