Hello ethernity and welcome to sm.org!

Just to be clear I don't know bbpress.

That said, have you already seen this discussion?

Hello Emanuele, thanks for the link. I install the converter for bbpress 1.0.x but when i press "continue" give me this error

Sorry, the database connection information used in the specified installation of SMF cannot access the installation of bbPress 1.0.x. This may either mean that the installation doesn't exist, or that the MySQL account used does not have permissions to access it.

The error MySQL gave was: SELECT command denied to user 'USERFORUMEXAMPLE'@'localhost' for table 'bb_users'

I dont know the reason for this, thanks u

Regards

EDIT

I change the convert.php and the sql and now is working, thanks for all.

The problem in this case is that you are probably using two different databases and maybe two different mysql account.
The point is that the mysql account you are using for SMF cannot access the database where bbpress is installed.

There are few possible solutions, one of these should work:
1) be sure the mysql account has the same rights on both the databases,
2) install SMF into the same database as bbpress and use the same mysql account.
