Title: Error log in an attempt to convert phpBB 3.3.9 to SMF 2.0.19
Post by: Bunkei on December 17, 2022, 06:11:50 PM
Hi, I am attempting to run the converter.  Right now, it's stuck on the 'members' portion, and it has been for the last half hour or so.  I only have 300 members in this database, so I'm assuming there might be something wrong.  I pasted the logs below and removed some private information (hence the 'xxxxx'). 

Please let me know if you need anything else from me.  Thank you so much in advance!

The converter is not compatible with php 8.x. Your choices are either to make the converter compatible with php 8 or downgrade your php till the conversion is finished.

P.S. I'm also unable to login.  It gives an error message "Password security has recently been upgraded. Please enter your password again."

This should help with that error.

What happens when entering the password again? You can also do a password reset.

It says "password incorrect", but I can certainly do a password reset.  Do you know if this issue might affect other users as well?

P.S. As to the first issue, what am I supposed to do with the code that's in the post you referenced?  Am I supposed to insert it in convert.php or .. ?
