Converting from XMB

amcca:
I have problems during the conversion process.

It hangs on converting topics with an error message about duplication 4663 and won't go any further.

Is there a paid conversion service available.

The database is about 13 + megabyte so its not that large.

K@:


Seems, to me, that it might be a plan to correct the duplication error.

I'd suggest going to your site's CPanel and repairing the database, first.

amcca:
Thank you for the reply.

I did do a database repair before trying to convert to no avail.

I have actually tried it three times now with the same result.

The error I get is, Converting topics...Duplicate entry '4663' for key 1

The XMB forum has been around for a while and has had several version upgrades so it wouldn't surprise me if the database had errors that are not repaired under the normal Repair database command in MySQL.

Any help would be appreciated and the Club is quite happy to pay for someone to give assistance.

K@:
Rather than go through all that, you might just get lucky, if you mention the error that you're getting to your host. ;)

Failing that, I seem to remember this error cropping-up quite a bit, here. So, it may pay you to search through the forum, especially the converters section. :)

amcca:
Hi K@,

The only error that I get is

Converting topics...Duplicate entry '4663' for key 1

and it hangs at that point.

No other errors show up, and no errors in the MySQL Database window.

Allthough I am not that good with MySQL
