Hi, I know this is very old, but I need to convert an old UBB 6.04 (2001) forum into any phpBB. I have try a few converters but so far nothing seem to work, the latest was the:
UBB.classic to phpBB 2.0.x Convertor

* File version: 1.8
*/
but at first it give me error only at the step of creating posts, anyway now I reset the database in the phpBB2 and it is no longer working, plus I had to pick v.6.1.x when using the converter. ok anyone have the older version of Graham converter, the 1.0.3
here some of the error, actually now it is only at the level of post that I get an error:

previously i had error just to reset the whole thing, but what I found out is the backup using the phpbb backup was wrong, better to backup from phpmyadmin then reset the whole db, that does n't give any error, before i couldn't even create a forum manually, was getting this error "SQL Error : 1364 Field 'forum_posts' doesn't have a default value" now it's good.
