Sincere:
to be certain am doing this correctly, I have just dropped all tables in my smf database and am re-installing the smf forum from scratch.

I will then  use this converter

hey Norv. did you mean in your earlier post to say that we should rather be using this ?

N. N.:
Yes, please use the converter from vbulletin 3.7, if you have 3.8, it was tested and it did work with a number of 3.8 databases.

I completely understand and there is no problem whatsoever, if you do not feel comfortable with doing so. (The size is not a problem, but that is not the point.)

Of course I will try to help. However, I am not interested in a paid job on the matter, for all I understand, it falls under the assistance we, the SMF Team, provide for free, on these forums. I'm afraid I will restrict to these forums, however, these forums exist for exactly that: free support. I never provide assistance on instant messengers, I do not have that kind of time and never do that, sorry.

About the problem at hand:
Please try this:
Keep a backup copy of your original file Subs-Db-mysql.php, and restore it after working on the conversion; then, in Subs-Db-mysql.php:

--- Code: (find) --- // Here's where the variables are injected to the query.
$insertRows = array();
foreach ($data as $dataRow)
$insertRows[] = smf_db_quote($insertData, array_combine($indexed_columns, $dataRow), $connection);

--- End code ---

--- Code: (replace) --- // Here's where the variables are injected to the query.
echo "indexed_columns:<br>";
var_dump($indexed_columns);
echo "<br>";
$insertRows = array();
foreach ($data as $dataRow) {
echo "dataRow: <br>";
var_dump($dataRow);
echo "<br>";
$insertRows[] = smf_db_quote($insertData, array_combine($indexed_columns, $dataRow), $connection);
}

--- End code ---

Then, run the conversion again. Please post the last query and error message on the page (copy paste, or attach a screenshot, or both, as you see fit).

Hey Norv.

I tried 3 times yesterday.......

I think the code replacement that you recommended here above (quoted again here) outputs extra debugging information.

The little problem with this is that the conversion in this way outputs so much text that it crashed both IE and FF on my little notebook. I will have to try this conversion again on my solid dekstop this evening.

ladyengland:
Hi, I realise the converter from vB4 to smf is not around yet, but I've managed to convert with just one problem...the attachments have converted, but they are not showing up in the posts. What can I do about this?

Thanks
