I uninstalled my new installation of 2.5.2 and re-installed paying very close attention to the DB settings. On the first page it says MySQL is enabled and PostgreSQL is disabled. I assume that means it will use MySQL since there's no other selector for DB type that I saw. The installation went fine and the test forum that gets created seems to work okay. I can post and browse and all that.
Then I try to do the data import from the old forum and get exactly the same error I did before. So I went into the forums data directory and moved the sql/pgsql directory to pgsql_old so the import code wouldn't use it. When I tried to then import the data again the process completed almost instantly. I logged into the forum and saw that the old forums forums were there with all of the relevant stats but there was no messages or contents in any of them.
So I guess you must be right about it getting mixed up with the pgSQL stuff but I don't know why that is since neither of my Linux boxes have ever even had PostgreSQL installed let alone configured.
Any more tips? Is it possible for me to verify that I have a valid and complete MySQL data dump from my old forum?
