Has anyone got a converter from Web Wiz to SMF?

Thanks

/edit: I found a way to go from webwiz >> phpbb >> smf. However this is still a bit long and direct conversion would be appreciated!

I am using web wiz and want to change it to SMF.

I like this forum and looks like better and faster  :D

However i need to convert db to SMF's one.

Any helps?

H

Well I did find a way to do it.

It is a bit long winded but you will have to converter WWF >> phpbb >> smf.

Search the phpbb forums for the conversion thread as it also links to a good MS access to mysql converter.

Yeah, I am trying to go with your way. I hope i can do it :D, my wwf forum espicially it is soop portal.
I got error Warning: odbc_exec(): SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]There is already an index on table 'phpbb_sessions_keys' named 'IX_phpbb_sessions_keys'., SQL state S0011 in SQLExecDirect in D:\Websites\forum.alternatifim.com\wwwroot\phpbb2\db\mssql-odbc.php on line 171

You should be using MySQL for phpBB, not SQLServer. Otherwise you'll have problems trying to convert to SMF.

Indeed, there are however many MSSQL to MYSQL converters available, in fact I think there is a free beta one available from mysql itself

Of course my phpbb one is mysql.  However my webwiz forum mssql :(

You need to convert your webwiz database to MySQL before trying to convert to phpBB. That error message you got makes me think you're trying to use SQLServer with phpBB...

Maybe you will make a conventer script for web wiz to SMF and i don't make an effort with converting it phpbb :D

On the other hand, i will try to convert my mssql db to mysql. Can anyone give me direct link that works...

Thanks for replys :) I hope i will be one of the other user that use smf :D

There isnt (and probably never will be) demand for a WWF >> SMF converter as very few people converter between languages and database systems. Converting to phpbb then to SMF would be your best bet (and it wouldnt be difficult). If you can send me a MYSQL database dump I could see if i can get it working for you.

Try:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=mssql+to+mysql&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official

RECOMMENDED:
The offical migration toolkit from mysql:

Thanks for your help huwnet, I have download mysql migration toolkit, First I select source as mssql db. However when i try to connect it i got error.

ReverseEngineeringMssql.getCatalogs: Could not find a Java Charset equivalent to DB charset iso_1

My db charset was Turkish and i changed it Latin_1. However error remains same.
