Converting from Ikonboard 3.1.4

[paganize]

Thought I would start this one off.
Attempting to Convert a Ikonboard 3.1.4 installation with several thousand messages to SMF 1.1.4

First Error: the converter asks for an upload path. I have no idea what it means, so left it blank. no apparent problems arise from this.

Next error: Either I missed it in the manual, or I have a weird host. You must install your SMF software into the same MySQL database as your ikonboard installation; the converter tries to access the database using the username you specify during SMF installation, and my server (easycgi) does not allow you to have a user on 2 different databases. had to redo SMF installation to the same database.

Next Error: on the first screen after the initial screen, I got the error (from memory, BTW) can not clear tempID column; command is wrong or column does not exist. I went into the MySQL database, and the column did not exist. I created it, and was allowed to proceed to processing.

Next Error: Converting topic notifications... Unsuccessful!
This query:

    INSERT INTO `vrhome`.smf_log_notify
    (ID_MEMBER, ID_TOPIC, sent)
....etc, etc, etc, so on , so forth...
Caused the error:

    Duplicate entry '210-7-0' for key 1.
I hit "try again"; same result. Once more, just for the heck of it. No Dice. I go back into the MySQL database, look around. Look around some more.
I have no clue how to proceed from this point, or, really, what the problem is.

Which converter did you use?

I edited your topic. We use [SMF Converter] for official SMF converters from the team. Topics will be created for them as the time arises.

Which converter did you use?

Sorry, that would have helped I guess.
I'm unaware of any converter aside from the one I used, smf_1-1-2_ikonboard_converter.zip which is the one listed on the main converter download section of this site.
Interestingly, after i closed the converter, I took a look at the forum; it seems to work just fine, message count is correct, as is user count. everything seemed to be readable.
what portion of the imported data is represented by smf_log_notify, and what should have processed after it? If it's only calendar data or something like that, I'll consider it a adequate conversion.

Sorry for the delay, I lost this topic

the log_notify table just holds information about topic and board notifications. Not something that is really important as user can simply click the notify button again to get these back.

I don't think any of the converters convert calendar data, but I could be wrong here.

It worked, whatever it was; I was able to set up a fully functioning SMF forum with the imported data.
I guess it's a win!
