I keep getting this error when trying to run the conversion from phpBB to FUD:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ses_get() in c:\program files\apache group\apache\FUDforum\include\theme\default\users.inc on line 36

Anyone know where the ses_get() function is defined?

Add unset($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']); below the line that defines __WEB__ constant.

Well that was a better answer than I was expecting! Made quite a lot of difference - thanks.

I got a few errors during the conversion but all looks well after running the consistency check.

Thanks again.

Hello again.

I had a blank FUD forum installed on a server, so after doing the conversion locally, I dropped the converted DB over the one on the server. That had all my users, categories, topics, etc. but no messages.

After I quick search I realised I would need the files in the 'messages' folder. So, I uploaded those and now I'm getting this:
Quote:


Warning: main(./GLOBALS.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/hivemind/public_html/fud/index.php on line 13

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './GLOBALS.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/hivemind/public_html/fud/index.php on line 13



Does anyone know what might be causing this error? Well the 'permission denied' is a clue, of course, but I can't for the life of me figure out why it suddenly doesn't have permission.

Yeah, it goes okay after resetting the permissions.

I've no idea why they were changed, but at least it works now. Smile
