The font has nothing to do with the convertor. It has to do with the character encoding of your databases, database backups and text editor.

i tried this converter and i thought it worked fine until i realized that not all my private messages were converted. is there any way to fix this? fyi, i haven't upload them into my webspace yet.
8/ Once the forum is converted, open PhpMyAdmin, and update the phpbb_config table as follows :
- the field server_name : replace the value localhost by the one you will use on your webspace like yoursite.com or subdomain.mysite.com if you use a sub-domain.
- the field script_path if needed : replace phpBB2 by the path you use : ex use forums if your forum is at http://www.monsite.com/forums/.


i could not find the field server_name and script_path in phpbb_config table. is this really necessary??

Go to phpMyAdmin and go to your database. Open up the <yourdatabaseprefixhere>_users table (usually called phpbb_users) and SQL

SELECT * FROM `pbz_users` WHERE 1

and hit "Go"

it will pull up the list of user names. Find yours and click on the edit icon (the pencil icon)

Where it says user_level delete the 0 and put in a 1 (default installation has admin level as 1, however if you added admin ranks prior to conversion, you may have to find out what level your admin rights are set to and insert that number here).

hit "Go" and it will update your user record with the user_level of 1 or whatever you set it as, and then go login to your forum - you should have admin rights back, and now you can re-adjust the rights of your converted members from the admin panel without having to fuss with phpMyAdmin again.


Also, I had fusion in one database and created a new database for phpbb. Since the converter only works with one database, I simply exported my fusion database in a SQL statement through PHPMyAdmin and copied the text, then opened up my phpbb database and pasted the SQL statement into the SQL tab and hit "Go" which loaded the entire fusion backup into my phpbb database - about 38 tables that the convertor can now work from and perform the conversion. When you are all done with conversion, feel free to carefully delete those imported tables from your phpbb database - but ONLY when you are done with the entire conversion, and be sure to make a backup of your entire phpbb database before you do.

I hope this helped.

Hello.

I hope someone can help me out.
Everything with this convertion went just fine, the forum, topics and posts and user converted just fine.
But no one can log in, when trying to log in everyone including me gets a error that the password is wrong.

What to do?
I have converted on a test board.

The only way is to find out what encryption technique Fusion uses and modify login.php to check for that encryption.

message_die() was called multiple times. This isn't supposed to happen. Was message_die() used in page_tail.php?

That is something you will have to ask your host about, see if they can increase the resources temporarily for you.

This is due to multiple errors with the phpBB2 board.
Have you deleted, or renamed, the install and contrib directories?

To find exactly what is causing that error, use this MOD, [2.0.17] Fix message_die for multiple errors MOD
