I entered the path to the /data/attachments folder, attachments worked fine though.

However when I ran attachments it looked for filenames like "blah.jpg" but xenforo stores all its attachments as 466545646546545664 and other random numbers while the actual file names are in the database under the xf_attachment_data table.

Is there anything that could be done for attachments?

If you require any other information please do let me know!

Awesome indeed Andreas :D

Thats's the wrong path, this directory only contains thumbnails.
You must enter the part to internal_data/attachments.

The filename is just for human readability, it does look for the real file (well, at least it should :)).

the path to internal_data/attachments does not work, it still tells me source file not found for every single attachment.

If you need any other info do let me know! I would very much like to be able to do the full import as soon as possible, thank you for the support and time you have put into this :)

Look forward to your next response.

Seems like you are SOL with this problem then as it works just fine for me.

Sorry, but I can't help you without access to your server.

You might want to check that the path is indeed correct and that the webserver has read access to read the files:
Put
in line 94 of 010.php to see which files are actually being accessed.

I'd have just stopped at IPB...

Maybe one day vBulletin will come up with a 3.6.12 to 4.2 upgrade script for vBulletin.org ;)

I managed to get the attachments imported but on the very last step after importing attachments which worked perfectly I get this error on the last button. Process Inline attachments

ImpEx Database error

Anyway to fix that?

Thanks for your support!

Quick update: I can't even click on the Import button in the ACP, I also get the error above.

Hi i get this Error after importing the forums:



First i thought this is a problem with my target DB, but the connection seems to be fine. So I have no idea what is going wrong here.

Maybe someone has an idea?

Thanks for your help!
