Question phpbb3 to Kunena

Sorry I came across a basic error :

• - after checking out the Importer from SVN TRUNK and building the zip with the shell script provided
• - the Joomla install works
• - but when I click on the component I get

Fatal error: Call to a member function getName() on a non-object in /var/www/xxxxx/libraries/joomla/application/component/view.php on line 449

I am running the last Joomla with the last Kunena on a local Ubuntu Karmic workstation / server
:blink:

Thanks

I had converted form phpbb2 (Orion2) over phpbb3 to kunena, it works fine but it is very very important and essential to migrate the attachments.

This is my biggest problem!!!

I need it very quickly, so can "anyone" make a script? I think Kunena 2.0 will take some time, when I read the blog, not until end of year 2010? rather 2011?

My Forum is big, relative over 71.000 posts an nearly 2500 Users with hundreds of attachments. So I´m a little bit in a hurry.... :whistle:

Hi developers

my know how in PHP is not very good so I really need your help.

For an expert in PHP development must this very easy.

in the PDF-File in the attachment I wrote what I need to convert the Attachments from phpbb3 to Kunena.

Help please!

I'm trying to convert (with go.php) but conversion stops here:

Nothing happeded after "Populating Messages_Text Table..."??? What should I do ?

Resolved: It was about max_execution_time setting in php.ini.

I did find a way round the password issue. It's a long way round but it did work.

I first installed a test joomla with Jfusion linking into the phpbb3. Synced all the users using jfusion. Then on a fresh joomla install with kunena/fireboard (seperate DB from the test install I followed the go.php instructions in the phpbb3>>fireboard convertor. Once all the users/posts were transferred across I then used a simple php script to copy the passwords for each user from the jfusion/joomla DB to the relevant users in joomla/kunena DB (needed as the user ID's will not be the same.

The password copying script is available in this thread by the person who kindly made it for me

Yep it's a long way round but at least the jfusion usersync converts all of the passwords and as long as your secret key is the same in your joomla/jfusion and joomla/kunena installs the passwords will work.

Now what I would love is for the convertor to also copy across the users PM's

:kiss:

I check and tried script for passwords and i get:

You said that

Yep, just added $db1_result = "";

Could you post modified script here on PM it to me , please.

And one more question... Which one is the database (on the password script) which have users syncronized with JFusion? Is it db1 or db2?

Here's a RAR file with the new code in place, I've marked the DB old and new and please remember that for this to work the Secret Key has to be the same as the old Joomla as it's salted into the password hashes. Please test this out on copies of the DB's first to make sure it works
