I get the below error message:
"Sorry, the database connection information used in the specified installation of SMF cannot access the installation of phpBB2. This may either mean that the installation doesn't exist, or that the MySQL account used does not have permissions to access it."
I have phpnuke installed in db nuke_
I have smf installed in smf1_
I have created a folder and created the config.php file sugguested.
I moved the users table in db nuke_ from nuke_users to nuke_bbusers
If anyone has any sugguestions as to what I am forgetting to do I would appreciate it. Feel free to ask for any information you need to answer this question.
Thank you

Ok I am a ninny I just needed to add my smf1 user to my nuke db...
Anyways It converted my phpnuke site into smf, which if you want to see the before and after pics ill show you.
My phpbb
http://www.usa-gamers.com/modules.php?name=Forums
my SMF
http://usa-gamers.com/SMFbb/index.php
When it did the conversion it did have some errors, it was pointing to my convert folder as if it was root and trying to find the phpnuke folders. Which if it looked at the actual root it would have found. Where in the convert php script do I make this change?
I am very happy with what it has converted but if I could get 100% with avatars I would be estatic.
Thanks

Nevermind again I fixed this porblem by just moving the temp config file to the root director and renaming my good one as old.
Convert went successful, I did have to update the db where group id = 1 to group id =0 because it made every user admin and made me a regular user :)
