Unable to login after conversion

[barrypoore]

I have ran the conversion from SMF 2.0.14 to PHPBB 3.2.11, now when I try to login the following MySQL error is returned once I click the submit button:

Unknown column 'user_pass_convert' in 'field list' [1054]

Can anyone shed any light on this, also my forum is stuck in maintenance mode, can this be undone in the database?

Many thanks.

In regards to being stuck in maintenance mode, I just had to rename the install folder

In phpMyAdmin, run the following, which will create an admin user named Admin1 with a password of admin. From that point you should be able to get into the ACP.

Code: Select all

INSERT INTO phpbb_users (user_type, group_id, username, username_clean, user_regdate, user_password, user_email, user_lang, user_style, user_rank, user_colour, user_posts, user_permissions, user_ip, user_birthday, user_lastpage, user_last_confirm_key, user_post_sortby_type, user_post_sortby_dir, user_topic_sortby_type, user_topic_sortby_dir, user_avatar, user_sig, user_sig_bbcode_uid, user_jabber, user_actkey, user_newpasswd) VALUES (3, 5, 'Admin1', 'admin1', 0, '21232f297a57a5a743894a0e4a801fc3', '[email protected]', 'en', 1, 1, 'AA0000', 1, '', '', '', '', '', 't', 'a', 't', 'd', '', '', '', '', '', '');

Change your table prefix if it is not phpbb_

See Executing SQL Queries in phpMyAdmin if you are unfamiliar with running database queries.

As soon as you have done this, use the temporary admin account to change the details on the original admin account, then delete the temporary account.
This is because:

1. anyone could use that account to log in to your board if you didn't change the password.
2. this temporary user has not been fully set up (e.g. it is not a member of the "Registered users" group, so it won't have normal access to your forums).

To remove the account you will first need to remove founder status from it:

ACP> USERS AND GROUPS tab> Manage Users> Admin1> Overview> Founder = No
