Greetings,

I've just bought a vBulletin license a few days ago and I have a quick question. First let me explain some stuff.

I have 2 webservers, one of which I use for testing stuff, and the other is an official website for my game server. Right now, vBulletin is set up to run on my test server. I want to remove it from my test server, and put it on the official one. Currently the official one runs phpbb in the /forums directory. I want to eventually replace the phpbb and merge using Impex. From my understanding, to use Impex, I will need both forums on the same server (that way it can access the SQL tables).

My question is pretty simple, all I want to do is put vBulletin on my official server. Since /forums is already taken by the phpbb install, would vBulletin still work correctly if I installed it under /testvb and then after the merge, renamed the folder to forums? Would this cause any errors with vBulletin?

./Pokey

That will work just fine. Make sure to change the Forum URL in your vBulletin Options though.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
