[SMF Converter] phpBB3

[ThorstenE]

Still getting the same

try again with the above attached new version (for smf 1.1.4) and be sure, that you upload it in FTP ASCII-Mode (not Binary)..

[aarron]

Gave that a go and its still happening 

Coult it be beacuse it was originaly a smf board that I converted to phpbb3?

[ThorstenE]

did you still get

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/str0000/public_html/forum/Sources/LogInOut.php on line 483

?
i think the best way would be to install a blank new SMF in a seperate directory. after succesful installation  install the login_fix.tar.gz attached in this topic via Package-Manager. Then you should check, that the  login is already working.

After that you can convert your PHPBB again in your new installed SMF.

[aarron]

Its all working now!

Thank You

hi JayBachatero,
After I convert my database and hack the LogInOut.php, I can login but I can't view the My profile. It seem all of my member is not activate.

Could you help me, I use the latest phpbb3.

many thanks

Is the permissions correct saosangmo?

Check in Admin -> Permissions to make sure all groups have permission to view other peoples profiles as well as their own.

[lakeccrunner]

I just converted, but before I did, I forgot to change the password settings within the phpbb3 files. Now, none of my users can login.

Do I have to re-install and convert them again?

Edit- Ok, I know what I have to do now, but what file do I have to edit? I can't find anything in the phpbb3 directory that is LogInOut.php

I don't know what file to edit...

[ThorstenE]

you need edit the Sources/LoginOut.php in your SMF-Directory (not phpBB). but it should also work, if you click on the "Forgotten Password"-Link in SMF with an administrative Account and after you changed your password you should be able to login.. Then go to Admin - Package Manager and install the Package attached in this Topic.

Hi! That's great job and we really happy to see this converter because we wanna get rid of phpbb3 as soon as possible We tried this and it works excellent!! Thanks again to JayBachatero but this's not enough for us and we're waiting JayBachatero to convert all these features :

Does Not Convert

    * Permissions (This might not be supported at all so please check permissions before making the board live.  Everything will be admin only for board access.)
    * Redirection Boards (I want to add support for the redirection boards mod.)
    * Avatars
    * Profile Fields (I want to look into this and see if I can make them SMF compatible.  You would just need to make the template changes.)
    * Basic Settings (Convert some of the basic forum settings. (site name, max post length, etc)
    * Smileys



and i wanna learn , after a few months or days can we get an error about this converter? there are about 40000 posts in my forum and i don't wanna lose them

[samy.3660]

hi,
i have succesfully converted my site to smf, but now i have both (phpbb3 and smf) installed. phpbb3 is installed on the main page www.aboutfone.com [nofollow] and smf is on www.aboutfone.com/forum. [nofollow]

Now how to i delete phpbb3 and bring smf on homepage that is www.aboutfone.com [nofollow]

Need your help!!!!!

[samy.3660]

OK Now i have totally deleted my ftp root folder after taking a backup of smf. Now people can you suggest how would i be able to restore that backup???

[ThorstenE]

Saving/Restoring, and Moving SMF (From a Host to Another)

[SleePy]

cbaris,

I don't think that would be able to be accomplished yet. Lots of that requires work to match up permissions for instance to the equivalent phpbb ones. The permission system in phpbb3 is very over complicated. Using 3 tables if I remember right to just get one job done.

The others such as redirection boards and profile fields would be easier if it was done for the SMF 2.0 converters, as SMF 2.0 has both of those in it so it would require just matching up the right fields in the database to convert them.

[ThorstenE]

it seems like a PHP safe_mode issue. open convert.php with text-editor an go to line 29

Code Select Expand

set_time_limit(0);
change it to

Code Select Expand

@set_time_limit(0);
hope that works..

[ThorstenE]

The Server has safe_mode enabled and killed the script after max_execution_time in php.ini.

on servers with safe_mode disabled you can set  the max execution time by set_time_limit(0); (which means unlimited script time)

Only way to convert is the local server i think.

[SleePy]

The time limit might be possible to be removed. I don't know if the server timeout protection would be able to catch itself and prevent issues.
You would be best off trying locally or using a host that doesn't implant safe mode. Safe Mode is poor usage by web hosts to make them think they are secure, when its about as safe as putting paper between water.

[The Crooner]

It's finally here.  Spent the whole day working on it and managed to get a beta out.  The converter is still in beta and some things are missing.  If you have suggestions for other things to convert just post them .  Here is a list of what is converted.
