Hi,

I've encountered several errors whilst trying to convert my phpBB forum to SMF.

The first error I encountered was with Ranks, but that was solved by removing all custom ranks.

Now, it's giving an error when converting groups:

Converting...
Converting ranks... Successful.
Converting groups...Field 'description' doesn't have a default value


I've tried changing the field type and adding a default to description, but that doesn't seem to work.

Any suggestions?

In the phpbb3_to_smf.sql file...

Find
-1 AS min_posts, '' AS stars, group_colour AS online_color

Replace
-1 AS min_posts, '' AS stars, group_colour AS online_color, '' AS description

That should fix that problem.
