/facedesk .. smf 2 (importing smf 1 data to smf 2)

[jango]

Hi all,

I've finally decided to update from SMF 1.1.14 to SMF 2.0. So, I set up the site and got everything rolling without any problems, then started to import the data from the SMF 1 tables .. and here's where my problem is. Just so I can be clear I should say I have ONE database, and both site's data sits on the same database server while I cross things over.

Now for the meat of my post ..

The main problem I have is that the posts aren't displaying. I can see posts in the new tables (in _messages), and the subjects appear on the new site - but NOT the actual body of the post. Instead I get the message "This topic doesn't exist on this board". Now I'm a bit stuck ...

When checking the error log I'm getting ..

Any help here would be VERY welcome .. I'm slowly losing my mind staring blankly at phpmyadmin and the admin screens.

Hope I put this in the right forum. Thanks in advance!

have you run the upgrade.php script to upgrade your database?

I wasn't aware there was an upgrade script .. you mean to upgrade from 1.1.14 to smf 2 on the same site?

[Illori]

yes take a look at Upgrading SMF

[jango]

Oh, I thought you meant a script you run from the admin centre (like upgrades from 1.1.13 to 1.1.14 for example).

I'll give it a try and will post back with results .. thanks for the help.
