ok, thats cool, BUT Smile in phpmyadmin i have in the table "fud26_msg " only 19.358 messages! after i do the "Forum Consistency" i will see all things of my old forum:) nice! but there where also only 19.358 messages. Where is the differece?! i need all messages...

and, the sorting is arbitrarily. the actuall messages are not on the top. there are mixed.

i hope you understand my very bad english. Thank you very much!

There are 2 reasons why the counts may not match:

1) Whe the forum selects messages it does it by performing an INNER JOIN between the messages, message_body and topics table. Which means if there are orphaned records there are less entries.

You can check for this by executing the same query with count(*) and seeing how many rows are being returned.

2) The forum id of the message does not correspond to a know value, you add an error printing message for that by editing conversion script, in particular the:
<?php
if (!isset($forum_map[(int)$obj->forum_id])) {
                        continue;
                }
?>

code block.

Not sure about the other error, you'd need to show me (you did run the consistency checker, right?).

ok i have do this. hier my modified query for control:
SELECT count( * )
FROM xxx.phpbb_posts p
INNER JOIN xxx.phpbb_posts_text pt ON p.post_id = pt.post_id
INNER JOIN xxx.phpbb_topics t ON t.topic_id = p.topic_id


the result is the same! 22020! ...

ok, i hope i understand this right. i have modify the phpBB.php:
		if (!isset($forum_map[(int)$obj->forum_id])) {
			continue;
			echo "ERROR:PRINT";
		}


the "ERROR:PRINT" not comes! thats good, or? Confused

It is recommended that you run SQL table optimizer after completing the consistency check. To do so click here, keep in mind that this process make take several minutes to perform.

Consistency checker must run, otherwise various counts will be off, this is why the converter specifically directs you to run it...

Actually the messages ARE sorted by the date of last post, if that is not the case then I suspect there is a bug somewhere.

The sorting should've become fine AFTER the consistency checker had run.
