Try changing the $prefix line in your dummy config.php from

$prefix = "nuke";

to

$prefix = "nuke_bb";

What didn't we catch ?

That's more serious :( It's failing to access user details from the phpNuke forum.

phpBB2 stores users in the phpbb_users table. The phpNuke forum shares users with the main system, so the users are in the nuke_users table rather than the nuke_bbusers table. That's probably fixable by tweaking the converter, but a bigger problem is that the fields in nuke_users may not properly match the fields that are expected to be found in phpbb_users.

It's getting late now and I have to be up early, so it's time for bed. If you can provide the following info, I'll try to take a look at this tomorrow evening (unless someone else works it out before then)...

1) A list of all the fields in the nuke_users table
2) An example record or two from the nuke_users table.

If the nuke_users table has the relevant fields in it, then one trick might be to make a copy of nuke_users as nuke_bbusers, but a check on field contents should give us a clue about whether that will work.

I can't find a good way to display the other details u need - there is too much info in the table...ask me for something and i will get straight back to you with the deatil.

Thanks again for your interest.

Actually, I have noticed that although the Forum titles and topic titles made it over, the thread titles and post data didn't.

...and another piece of info that may help, I have already ported over all of my nuke users to my Mambo portal with the help of onother tool. It will also port over to "simpleforum" but I don't want to use that, I want to use SMF! :)

The nuke_users table does contain all the phpBB_users fields, so you can try creating a copy of nuke_users as nuke_bbusers and try the converter again.

It's possible that the posts haven't transferred because the users didn't convert across.

You, my friend, are a genius!!

Thank you very much!

Just one "small" issue... all of my users are admins and all admins are users...HELP!! What's the quickest way to fix this??

Sorry, I didn't get a chance to look at this last night, but I'm glad to see that you found a fix. Welcome to the world of SMF...I'm sure you and your users will be impressed.

Just in case it helps anyone else with a similar problem in the future, what was the problem and the solution you found?

Your suggestion worked the magic

Darn this is difficult... somehow i have a same problem and i tried to make it work with these answers above (and all the others), but no help at all... Maybe i'm missing some point? (Probably my major fault is a poor English skills? :))
If someone is going help me, please do it very very slow. ;)
Here is the original thread for it. (@Finnish)

packman

Your English is infinitely better than my Finnish :P

1) Have you got a working copy of SMF running with SMF either using the same database as phpNuke? It is possible to do this with two databases, but easier with just one! If not, get SMF running on it's own first.

2) Using something like phpMyAdmin, make a copy of the nuke_users table and call it nuke_bbusers. Make sure the two tables have the same structure and that you copy all the data across.

3) In a temporary directory that the converter will have access to, create a file called extension.inc and put the code below into it.

<?php
/***************************************************************************
*                               extension.inc
*                            -------------------
*   begin                : Saturday, Feb 13, 2001
*   copyright            : (C) 2001 The phpBB Group
*   email                : [email protected]
*
*   $Id: extension.inc,v 1.5 2002/04/04 11:52:50 psotfx Exp $
*
*
***************************************************************************/

if ( !defined('IN_PHPBB') )
{
       die(
"Hacking attempt");
}

//
// Change this if your extension is not .php!
//
$phpEx = "php";

$starttime = 0;

?>


4) In the same temporary directory create a file called config.php containing the following:

<?php

//
// phpBB 2.x auto-generated config file
// Do not change anything in this file!
//

$dbms = 'mysql4';

$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbname = 'database-name-goes-here';
$dbuser = 'database-user-name-goes-here';
$dbpasswd = 'password-for-database-user-goes-here';

$table_prefix = 'nuke_bb';  // Change this to whatever phpnuke (or you) have set the forum table prefix to

define('PHPBB_INSTALLED', true);

?>


5) Edit the temporary config.php file and put in the right values for your phpNuke database into the four variables beginning with $db.  Change the $table_prefix value to suit the prefix for your phpNuke database tables. This is usually 'nuke'. If it is, just use 'nuke_bb' as shown above. If it's anything else, replace 'nuke' with your current prefix, e.g. if your prefix was 'phpnuke', $table_prefix would be set to 'phpnuke_bb'.

6) Now try running the converter. When it asks for the path to phpBB2, put in the full path to the temorary directory containing the extension.inc and config.php files.

Hopefully this will work. If not, let me know what happened and I'll see if I can work out what else you might need to do.

1) Have you got a working copy of SMF running with SMF either using the same database as phpNuke? It is possible to do this with two databases, but easier with just one! If not, get SMF running on it's own first.

Yes i do, i just installed SMF, but using a same database as phpnuke? (see the pic)

2) Using something like phpMyAdmin, make a copy of the nuke_users table and call it nuke_bbusers. Make sure the two tables have the same structure and that you copy all the data across.
You mean a nuke to smf and smf to nuke, sounds weird but well... i don't know nothing :)

3) In a temporary directory that the converter will have access to, create a file called extension.inc [nofollow] and put the code below into it.

That was a strange one, because i had a problem (first time) to install SMF, i had to change

      if ((session_save_path() == '/tmp' && substr(__FILE__, 1, 2) == ':\\'))
      {
           echo '
                     <div class="error_message">
                          <div style="color: red;">', $txt['error_session_save_path'], '</div>
                          <br />
                          <a href="', $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], '?step=0&amp;overphp=true">', $txt['error_message_click'], '</a> ', $txt['error_message_try_again'], '
                     </div>';

           return false;

                     </div>';

           return false;

Also i had to make that temp folder... i don't know what was the problem because i had a tmp folder, but when i changed that and make a temp folder everything worked just fine.
So, which one temp/tmp folders i have to put that .inc file? Maybe just in case both of them? :)


4) In the same temporary directory create a file called config.php containing the following:
I put this file to the tmp and temp folders.

5) Edit the temporary config.php file and put in the right values for your phpNuke database into the four variables beginning with $db. Change the $table_prefix value to suit the prefix for your phpNuke database tables. This is usually 'nuke'. If it is, just use 'nuke_bb' as shown above. If it's anything else, replace 'nuke' with your current prefix, e.g. if your prefix was 'phpnuke', $table_prefix would be set to 'phpnuke_bb'.

6) Now try running the converter. When it asks for the path to phpBB2, put in the full path to the temorary directory containing the extension.inc [nofollow] and config.php files.

Hopefully this will work. If not, let me know what happened and I'll see if I can work out what else you might need to do.

Let's see what happends, but first i have to eat. :)
Sorry about that Blue-color, but it's much easier to read when "not using" a quotes.

Packman: Thanks a lot for your help. It worked just fine... Actually i had to ask my friend to translate that text of yours excatly. You know: two heads are better than one. :)

H-kon

I am experiencing the same thing, right down to the errors posted. I am totally clueless when it comes to php/sql.

Should i create a new topic or continue this one?

btw, i got here from looking at hxxp:www.begroovy.com [nonactive] who recently converted to SMF, and now i want that too. cant stand nuke/phpBB.
