I found the path to the phpbb.

but now i get this error:

The installation of SMF in the path you specified is not a version this converter can deal with. If it is older than SMF 1.0, you need to upgrade first. If it is newer, you need to use a different converter.

i have smf1rc2. i downloaded the only version of the phpbb convertor.

after searching, and searching, and searching i found the conversion.php and the phpbb2_to_smf.sql (and they were not in the download section where most people would look first).

but there is a problem-

the user and password for the smf database is different from the user and password for the phpbb database.

why is there only a place to enter the password for the smf database? there is no place to enter the password for the phpbb database. i get an error saying mysql refuses phpbb.

in FTP, you should be able to change them in your config.php file (for phpBB) and your settings.php (for SMF)
