I would love to mark this as solved . . . if it was.  :(

Now I'm trying to convert IB to SMF using the converter but this is the error I'm getting:

QuoteThe error MySQL gave was: SELECT command denied to user '**********'@'**********' for table 'ib_member_profiles'

So as I understand it I'm getting this error because of user permissions. But I'm hosting with GoDaddy and apparently they don't use cpanel and I can't edit user permissions. How do I get around this? I REALLY REALLY don't want to have to go through that whole install again just to put them in the same database. Any simple solutions?

Just got off the phone with GoDaddy and they told me there's no way they can edit user permissions for me. Is there any way to just move the tables from one db to the other?

Okay I figured it out—the simple solution was to setup the database again using the other db specs and reimport the backup. Ran the convertor and had zero errors!

THANK YOU!

Cool, I was just about to respond.

And welcome to SMF. :)

If at first you don't succeed, use a bigger hammer. If that fails, read the manual.
