your server has an execution time limit on how long a process can be alive (processing). You should try lowering the amount of threads it processes each cycle.

Hi Nebula!

I had tried this, but some thread's are to big. I want to convert the problem post every single alone, but the same result. The time is ticking away before it is convert. With the official importer I had this problem not, but there are very more other problems. Huuh, what I can I do...I have send an email to my provider. Is there any chance that there is an problem from your importer, because with the official I had not this problem.

Thanks
Andreas

OK, I have a good idea why it is causing all these timeouts...the [size=*] routine. Now, it just strips size tags off, instead of trying to properly change them from phpBB sizes to vBulletin sizes.

So, go download 0.9.5.2, and let me know if it works ;)

Hello!

Yeah it works :-)
Thanks for your quick help

Bye
Andreas

Still had bugs for me.

PM's were not imported correctly, user's passwords were still scrambled, no attachments imported, no avatars imported, and post counts were all off.

It's still a better upgrade file than the "official" one but this one needs much work. ;)

Sorry 4 the n00b question, but i can't figure it out. LOL

Nice importer!

I've made a few modifications to it and the bb_import functions so that the original ID's were preserved, and I plan on adding IMG codes linking to the current phpBB attachments at the end of each post that contains them, if you have any ideas on the best way to go about this (e.g. fastest, safest way) I would appreciate it.

Question: Why are some avatars converting and some aren't? And is this importer supposed to convert the avatar gallery? Because it didn't.

Showtime: You need to have the mySQL Username and Password for the vBulletin database be the same as the phpBB database.

fury: No, I don't really have any ideas about the IMG thing...probably because I don't completely understand :ermm:

I'm not sure why all the avatars aren't importing...hmm. And no, it's not supposed to convert the avatar gallery, that's up to you ;)

How can I resolve the problem of jumbled up Private Messages ?
Everything else seems to be working fine though other than the pm glitch :)

Pls advise

Cheerios ! :)

Read this whole thread and you'll find the answer. You have some user ids missing in your phpbb database. e.g. userid 20,21,22,25,26,27.... 23 and 24 are missing, so userid 25 in the phpbb database will become 23 in the vbulletin database, so the wrong users end up with the pms.
