Moving some Database info from one database to another.

[Red Blaze]

Alright, here's my issue.

I have two databases. A clean VB3.5 database, and a craptastic, filled-with-useless-tables vb3 database. I just want some tables moved. Not all of them. I tried doing it myself via myPHPAdmin, but no such luck.

I just want the Forums, threads, posts, users, and private messages.

Here's my VB3.5 forum:

log in as test, password is testing.

Click on a forum/thread, and you get the database error.

Database error in vBulletin 3.5.0 Release Candidate 2:

Invalid SQL:

SELECT

LEFT JOIN subscribethread AS subscribethread ON(subscribethread.threadid = thread.threadid AND subscribethread.userid = 1)

LEFT JOIN post AS post ON(post.postid = thread.firstpostid)


WHERE thread.threadid IN (0,435,432)
ORDER BY sticky DESC, lastpost DESC;

I added the users information first, then the forums, then the threads and posts. Help would be well appreciated, thank you.

It is not easy to move just a few tables by hand. That is a real expert job.

You better wait for ImpEx to be available on 3.5 if your intention is to start over with a clean non-hacked database (or you should have done that on a 3.0 database before upgrade to 3.5)

No no, I didn't upgrade anything. The current board I'm still using is /home/forum.

The 3.5 board is /forums.

I hope that hack yo mentioned won't take too long to be released. Thanks.
