Hi, when I try to convert XMB 1.9.11 with this converter: http://download.simplemachines.org/index.php?thanks;filename=smf_2-0_xmb_converter.zip
to SMF v2.0 I get this error:


QuoteConverting...
Converting members... Successful.
Converting categories... Successful.
Converting boards... Successful.
Converting topics...Duplicate entry '1092' for key 'PRIMARY'
At this time it stucks....

Please help me, I really need to fix this.

Have you tried going to your site's CPanel and repairing the database?

flewfruit

Yes, same error :(
please help me.

kat

If you repaired the database, yet it's still showing as having a duplicate key, it might be an idea to ask your host if they can correct that.

flewfruit

How can my host correct that? I'm the owner of the server and the db.

kat

Ah. My ESP must've failed me, coz I didn't know that. ;)

Remove the duplicate using phpmyadmin? Read my sig, first. ;)

flewfruit

Thanks for the support, you're great..I'm now in phpmyadmin, but where do I have to remove this?

kat

Ah. I'm afraid you've got me, there.

Let me see if I can figure that out on mine.

Back in a mo!

kat

OK. So, this is where it gets interesting...

I did a search for the key "PRIMARY" in my database.

It's simply not there.

Does a key with that name show-up, if you try a search?

(Bear with me, here, this is all new, to me).

Nahhh :(..Didn't find anything  :o.

cheers and thanks, ain't interessting for me  ;D

I'm really sad, I can't get this to work..Otherwise I have to buy invision power and try it with their converter, but I want SMF.

If someone can convert my xmbforum to smf with SUCCESS I'll pay him 20$ via alertpay. But with attachments.

flewfruit

Great news from me, I faced the problem finally after 3 days  O:)

everything was transfered, i'm so freaking happy to be now a part of smf :=)

hi flewfruit
i tried that IPB conveter trick sometime back
it managed to skip that duplicate entry problem but topics, posts and total members were not calculated properly
though all 9000+ posts seem to appear but i see wrong stats

"1 Posts in 1 Topics by 1 Members. Latest Member: Admin"

but converted forum shows almost all posts (i guess)

also there was an error that topic titles(title from first post in a topic) are not correct.
after conversion, topic titles are random..like converter took some title from replies to that topic and made it the main title of those topic.

i haven't checked PMs, banned users etc yet.

can someone suggest me how to do this
i posted my issue above

kat

You've kinda hijacked somebody else's topic, here, CBlog.

If you start another one, you might be better off...
