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

Dan, I'm sorry LOL. I was criss crossing my conversations with my shopping cart provider tech LOL.

NO worries, let me know when you get your stuff done, I am in the process of switching over my shopping cart right now, so I have my hands full ATM too!

First of all, Thanks. Your work/sharing seems like it might get me there.

I have 1.5.18 joomla already working so I don't need to migrate that. The users were originally synched with smf through a community builder bridge.

The first time I used the script it went to the home page. I might have typed it in wrong or something.

I then ran it a second time. I get the following error:

Done in 0
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_EXIT in /home1/inwardtr/public_html/sandpointhigh/Smf2Kunena_eng/mysql.php on line 9


The one thing that I don't know if I did correctly was edit the mysql.php. I replaced (host, user, password) with my info. Except I changed "host" to localhost because that is what I've always had to use in the past for different stuff.

I also changed (db) to my database.

Thanks for any help.

Sounds like you likely put some of the code outside of quotes.

Make sure all the Dbase user password etc are allnindividually in quotes.

I will try to finish this code this week too

Thanks Dan. I didn't have quotes around anything.

I no longer get the error message. I'm definitely not doing something right. Basically it flashes to my homepage right away. I go into Kunena component and do the recount category stats and nothing has changed.

I'm using the orignial converter and the updated sm2k.php and not the one you updated. Only because it sounds like the old one kept passwords. Maybe it's an issue of me needing to use your updated one.

My situation though is that I was running community builder and the joomlahacks bridge so basically they were entering through CB. I'm trying to avoid messing this up somehow so that when I'm in Kunena they still have access with their CB stuff.

You mention that you are working on finishing it. With my above situation Is it just best to wait until your done working on your updated script?

Thanks for the help already. I don't know much about this script stuff so everyone posts in here have been helpful.

yeah there is an infinite loop that overwrites and you end up with only a handful of users.

You need to make sure the SMF and Joomla tables are in the same table

Also Kunena and CB integrate so no problems there

As for waiting, yeah unless you dont mind the formatting.

Basically it converts the <br/> but incorrectly, i am thinking of taking that out and then running an SQL script to fix that

So if it only ends up with a handful of users if I understand correctly I can back up my users table before the script and put them back in after. What about the password thing. Since I'm integrating with CB would they still be able to use their existing or will they have to go the route mentioned in this thread of having to use a new password.

"Smf and joomla tables are in the same table". Are you meaning they need to be in the same database. I have them together in that but don't know if I'm supposed to do something else as far as "tables".

Thanks.
