Question y'all:
The instructions.txt file says to "Upload the contents of the upload folder into the root of your forums. DOnt upload the "upload" folder itself, just the contets of the upload folder."

Does that mean that *EACH* of the files in the sub-folders under 'Upload' (i.e., admincp, includes) should get dropped right into the root folder ? --> /public_html/staging/forums

Or... does that mean that files in admincp should get dropped into:
/public_html/staging/forums/admincp

... and that files in includes should get dropped into:
/public_html/staging/forums/includes

I tried both but got 'Invalid File Specified' when I clicked 'Import' in the 'Import Product' admincp screen.

THANKS !
PS - I'm using VB 4.1.9

It means the above.

Thanks.
This is the error I'm receiving (below)
I must be missing something simple ?

Database error in vBulletin 4.1.9:

hey - can anybody help out here ?
Thanks.

Try finding that CREATE TABLE query in the files and change:

TYPE=MyISAM

...to:

ENGINE=MyISAM

I am getting the exact same error:

Database error in vBulletin 4.1.12:

SQL version is 5.5.23-55

Engine did it - thanks man!

A big thanks - 133 spammers were stopped just last night!

Yeah - big thanks to jakeman on this.

I certainly would not have picked up on the need to change TYPE to ENGINE.
Is this an issue that needs to get addressed in the next ver of this module ?

It seems, that version 0.61 doesn't work with vBulletin 4.1.11. Is there a way to get an older version, which works with that version of vBulletin 4.1?
