Sticky migrating Joomla 1.x+Smf 1.x to Joomla 1.5+kunena Script

Hi,

Yes this can be used to convert just the forum

Fantastic, thanks!

Hey Danny,
I did a test, and the migration script went through super fast, less than 2 mins.

None of the users came across, and while all the categories came (I think anyway), nothing else did.

On my old forum, these are the stats:
21036 Posts in 3762 Topics by 4678 Members

I have a near fresh install of Joomla 1.5.18, and just installed Kunena today (I performed no setup).

Here is what I did:

I dumped the following tables from my live forum:
smf_boards
smf_categories
smf_members
smf_messages
smf_moderators
smf_topics

I imported that SQL file into the database that Joomla is installed on (Which is on a different server, if that matters).

After that was done, I ran the smf2k.php script (I replaced the original one with the updated one). It went through the setup pretty quick, I didn't get to read anything, and then said Mazal Tov.

Any ideas?

was an error_log file placed in the same directory as the script?

The entire process should take close to an hour

Hey Danny,
No error_log was generated so I put one in and re-started the process from scratch. Same results, nothing written to the log file though.

lol putting an error log in wont make it fill

That has more to do with your PHP.ini settings.

So no errors are shown on screen at any point?

It sounds to me more like it isn't connecting to the right database and actually finding any data.

Which script are you using, my altered timed one or the original?

oh LOL.

When I run the script, something does come up before it switches screens, but it happens to fast for me to read anything.

I am using your script file that you zipped up. I deleted the original and dropped yours in it's place.
