I appear to have Version 2.0 ALPHA 2 of the wwwboard script. I downloaded the converter (zip version), unpacked it, uploaded it in binary mode (then downloaded it in Ascii mode so I could read it more easily). I set the required variable as follows:
$WWWB_MSG = "http://www.rpinet.com/wwwboard/forum8/messages";
Then I ran it.
It says:
Cannot open WWWBoard messages directory ({WWWB_MSG})
I don't know the difference between ALPHA 2 and ALPHA 2.1, but I am hoping this problem is something other than version incompatibility. Any ideas?

you need to specify the path to the directory on the file system not a url to it.

That seems to have changed the picture. Now it seems to run, at least partially, and I get:
(/usr/local/forumdata/include/theme/default/db.inc:114
/usr/local/forumdata/include/theme/default/db.inc:263
/usr/local/forumdata/include/theme/default/users_reg.inc:133
/usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/wforum/wwwboard.php:157
) 1062: Duplicate entry 'Donna' for key 3

---------------------------
I have no idea what this all means, but obviously it opened the folder.

Your help is absolutely priceless.
I got farther today than I dreamed I could.
However, I do seem to be stuck. The original wwwboard.php gave the output listed above when I ran it on forum5. It also created a batch of topics that it successfully converted (They appear to be older messages from about a year ago). When I changed it to point to forum8, the php routine gave me the same, or a very similar output message, but did not create an additional category or forum. When I downloaded and ran the one you offered here, it also did the same output message, and it also did not create a new category or forum. Perhaps there is a problem attempting to convert more than one forum? I did go in and change the name of the converted forum and its category, thinking it might be "in the way", but I still do not get anything to convert when I run it for forum8.
