Title: [SMF Converter] IPB 3.0
Post by: Nibogo on October 13, 2010, 07:32:18 PM
Software: Invision Power Board (IPB)
Version: 3.0
NOTE: You should test the converted forum before delete your IPB installation, if you need to do it.

Here's the converter from IPB 3.0 to SMF 2.0 RC3, this was tested under an small database so if you have any issues please report them here, data that will be converted:

Post by: n3ronx on November 04, 2010, 07:28:00 AM
I'll try this converter with IPB 3.1.   Hope it works  :)

Edit: Is there any guidance for this converter? For example, should i use the same DB for IPB and SMF? Coz I got that error:

Code Select
Sorry, the database connection information used in the specified installation of SMF cannot access the installation of Invision Power Board 3.0. This may either mean that the installation doesn't exist, or that the Database account used does not have permissions to access it.

The error that was received from the Database was: SELECT command denied to user 'onderim_smf'@'localhost' for table 'members'

It works actually. If you browse with IE you'll get 404 error. Try with Mozilla Firefox.

Please make sure you're using the converter to SMF 1.1.x on a SMF 1.1.12 installation, and the converter to SMF 2.0 RC4 on a SMF 2.0 RC4 installation.

DeWo,
in ipb3_to_smf.sql find:
Code Select
---* {$to_prefix}members
add after:
Code Select
---{
/* Fix for invalid birthdays */
if(!preg_match('/\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}/', $row['birthdate']))
$row['birthdate'] = '0001-01-01';
---}
then restart the conversion.

Post by: DeWo on December 11, 2010, 02:41:45 AM
Thanks TE!
I tried do it by myself but I only deleted converting members.

And I see next problem - SMF doesn't have subforum functions and converted subforums are on main page.

Maybe time to add this function? ;)

huh, could you please test the attached version?

for the subforums: sure, SMF has subforum functionality.. AFAIK the converter skips the board order (parent & childs) because the structure in IPB is completely different (can't test it though, because IPB is paid software and I don't have a copy from an IPB database anymore)
Code Select
/* The converter will set id_cat for us based on id_parent being wrong. */
but you could re-arrange the boards after the conversion.

Oh c'mon :D For these purposes you can use nulled informally ;)
I think it'll  be useful for all of us :)

I am (unfortunately) using ipb 3_0_5, and trying to convert to SMF 2.0 RC4 (RC3 wasn't available) and I'm getting this error:

Converting members... Successful.
Converting categories... Successful.
Converting boards... Successful.
Converting topics... Successful.
Converting posts (this may take some time)...Wrong value type sent to the database. Integer expected. (id_board)

Looks like it's hanging up on the posts after a certain amount as the conversion script gets around 3K posts and dies.

Change TE code to:
Code Select
if(empty($row['id_board']))
$row['id_board'] = rand(99, 900);

Then restart the converter. Should works :)

Oh no.. My error :P I didn't finish reading your post and i wrote aswer :P
Take a while, I'll try to help you :)


OK, I think I know :D

Go to phpMyAdmin and exec this SQL query:
Code Select
TRUNCATE smf_personal_messages
(if you have diffrent prefix replace "smf_" to other)

And then run converter :)

After removing this code the converter should finish without errors.

I'd be interested in the result of this query:
Code Select
SELECT member_id AS id_member, forum_id AS id_board
FROM ipb_moderators
WHERE member_id != -1;
maybe you can execute it via phpMyAdmin and post the result.

Worked! Thank you!

The convertion ended with some warnings, but the topics and users was converted sucessfully. The problem now is that my board is mostly spanish text and in the convertion process some characters now appear weird, for example:

IPB: Preséntate
Converted SMF: Preséntate

I tried changing the charset of my new board to ISO-8859-1 but more weird characters appeared so I reverted it to UTF-8.

Can you please help me? Maybe I'm missing something..

the warning is a missing avatar file, nothing to worry about.

the charset issue: 
I believe your IPB is UTF-8? you should install SMF with UTF-8 as character set (there should be an option list in install.php) and re-convert the forum.

OK  I could convert from 3.1.4 to SMF 2.0 RC5 but It had 2 BUT

First: I commented one of last part of convert, this is the code that I commented, I don't know what do that part:

Code Select

                if (!isset($indexes['showPosts']))
                        $smcFunc['db_add_index']($to_prefix . 'messages', array(
                                'type' => 'INDEX', // no key

                                'columns' => array('id_member', 'id_member')),
                                array('no_prefix' => true));


Second: I use bio to fill user_title.

USE THIS FILES OVER YOUR OWN RISK.

So i'm running a conversion for a guy and he was only able to get the database from his old host and he doesn't have a backup of the files. What modifications do I need to make to convert.php to make it so it doesn't need any of the files? I know less things will convert, but the person is alright with that

well, I made some fixes and seems like it was converted fine from IPB 3.1.2 to the latest SMF (2.0.2).
please check it and use as you want, it worked for me, but seems like I'll not make any changes anymore.

Hello,
so I got further, but still writes me an error:

The converter detected that your host has open_basedir enabled on this server. Please ask your host to disable this setting or try moving the contents of your Invision Power Board 3.0 to the public html folder of your site.

I have only a backup of the database (.sql).
What this The converted after me really wants?
Thank you

Post by: margarett on August 07, 2014, 07:44:19 AM
That's a problem... The converter needs to read your IPB's config files to get the database details.
In which folder have you installed SMF?

Since it via forum was too lengthy, so I took the liberty to send a PM.

Thanks

Post by: margarett on August 07, 2014, 10:37:37 AM
That's not what I meant ;)

Since we only have the database available, we need to "trick" the converter and create a fake "conf_global.php".

What I asked you is what is the folder (on the server) where SMF is installed (eg: /home/user123/public_html)

Also, is your IPB database already imported into phpmyadmin?
