Any ideas?

Last time it error'd at a different point during memberlist importing --  is it just buggy? just keep at it?

Also -- I noticed my forums stats have been reset to 1 user, 1 post, etc -- even though thats not correct, all the 65000 posts are there and the 1200 members  --

As for the counts --> Admin --> Forum maintainance.

For the rest, I can't help you...

^thanks, I appreciate the help!

Anyone else on the first problem?

Try to use this converter instead:

Anyway, it's usual to have errors in avatar copy, since some of them are usually not there... :P

Does the converter stops, or says "success" even with those "avatar errors"

That is indeed the converter I used ---

And yes it just stops completely...

Are there more steps after the avatar copy?

margarett

I think there is also "attachments", if you have them on your phpBB installation...

I am talking about convert.php not phpBB2_to_smf.sql file.  The file here.
