Thanks,
I'll see if I can piece anything together regarding the leftover tables. Having already deleted all the ones that had 26 in the name, I can't do it yet. Meanwhile...
My original problem was in transferring the forum and data to a new IP host. I wanted to upgrade my "old" forum from 2.6.4 to 2.6.15, export the data, install 2.6.15 on my new site, configure it so it has the same categories and topics, so that I cam smoothly import it all at my new website. I am having two questions:
1. I downloaded the 2.6.15 upgrade script, but when I upload it to my forum and try to access it, I get a "this page cannot be displayed" message in my browser. I tried several uploads, and tried ASCII as well as binary transfer. Perhaps it got corrupted when I downloaded it. I notice that it is 1388K in size, which seems awfully small. I will repeat the download from FUDforum to see if it is the same size (and behaves the same way). Before I attempt to run the script, I go into my forum and disable it. Is that right?
2. When I installed the forum on my old site, I installed 2.6.1 with table names including 261 rather than 26 or whatever the default was. Later, without changing any table names, I upgraded to 2.6.4. Now, if I can, I will upgrade the old site to 2.6.15. When I export the data from the old site (as in making a backup), am I going to have to name the tables on my new site with the same table name convention as used on the old site, or can I just use the default names and still be able to import all the data from the old site?
