Import attachments from phpbb3
 
Hello! I really need your help... I have a forum based on phpbb3 and I'm moving to vbulletin 4, everything is going well working with Impex, but I'm still not able to import the attachments! Every path that I've entered leads to Source not found, and I don't know how to correctly import them. How can I find the real full path?

Thank you!!

Go into Vbulletin 4 and look at phoinfo in the maintenance section of the admincp. Make sure attachment directories have read/write access as well.

Hello, thanks for the hint! I've checked phpinfo but I didn't know what to look for...can you explain me?

thanks!

You will see your forum path there. Look at the paths and use them to make sure your attachments path is correct. Go into your attachment manager and be sure you have the right path there under storage types. This only applies if you are using file storage though but it would be this and file permissions I would check first.

/var/www/vhosts/yoursite/httpdocs/...... example file path..make sure you have the correct full path to your attachment's directory and make sure your attachments directory is set at chmod 777 or 755 on some servers.

Hello, thanks for your reply!
Unfortunately I still can't find the right path, the attachment manager of phpbb is very poor, and it says that attachments are found through the path /files , but when I enter that path on Impex it doesn't work... That folder is set at 777, like you said.
I found through phpMyadmin that there is a tab named phpbb_attachments, can it be useful?

thanks!!!

Not everyone has htdocs it depends, usually I see htdocs on parallels plesk installations and public_html with whm/cpanel setups.

Try:
AdminCP > Maintenance > View PHP Info > *Scroll to find (or use "find" in browser options) the text "_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]" and that will have something similar to: /home/accountname/public_html

So with that being said if the mod file was in lets say for example you use your forum in a folder such as forum it would be: /home/accountname/public_html/forum/filename.php so in the settings you would key in for full path /home/accountname/public_html/forum/

See what your DOCUMENT_ROOT is ;).
