Question Migrating from CCBoard to Kunena 1.6

Hello,

If you have a akeeba backup in zip format, i can make some tests with the converter which is still in work in progress

I went through Agora, then migrated to Kunene, then upgraded to K1.6. It worked. The forum is there, as well as all the previous posts. But now I can view any of them or post new topics. Everytime I do it goes to my 404 page.

I posted in another forum so just have to wait.

Until then, guess I'll have to use Agora until fixed.

Thanks for your help!

Were you ever able to solve your problem?

I did solve it, now K1.6 is working beautifully. Just upgraded to 1.6.1 with no problems at all. In my case, the problem was that I had Letterman installed for newsletters... and it was causing the problem. I uninstalled and Kunena started working. If you don't have Letterman installed, chances are if you're having the same problem (the 404's) then you've got an incompatible extension installed. Best thing to do is start disabling one by one and uninstall components you're not using. If you have a local install available or a sandbox Joom install, you may want to install the same extensions there, along with K1.6, then begin uninstalling until you find the culprit. At least this way you'll know before-hand.

As for the converter: I did the above going through Agora and had no issues (other than several posts were not properly formatted, but no big deal).

WELL, unfortunately agora is now commercial so thats not an option for me now.

Jeez! I didn't know that and just looked. Can't believe Agora is going commercial. Seems everything is nowdays. Thank God Kunena is still non-commercial... hopefully it stays that way. K1.6 dogs Agora anyway.

I think I may still have the previous Agora release. Lemme look and I'll let you know and can drop it in the server and you can download. That release was GPL non-commercial, so I'm pretty sure I can still distribute it without any cost. In the meantime, you may wanna Google it, there's probably still lots of Joom extension sites that are offering the previous for download.

I'll let ya know.

appreciate it, ccboard is cracked, and its tearing my site up. The db remains but I had to rip ccboard out quickly as they were really tearing things up. In the 24yrs I've been in the biz, this is the very first time I've had this happen. 16char pw and somehow they got it *sigh*
