Hi Ilia,

I was trying to convert one more forum to FUDforum, but the phpBB2 converter is failing. While I think this is a MySQL error, I would like to know if you have a workaround.

Quote:


Beginning Conversion Process
Reading phpBB2 config
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '-golf.golf_config' at line 1


The query is: "SELECT * FROM FORUM-golf.golf_config"

The server is running MySQL 4.1.14. I've checked the MySQL's manual, and it says this is a valid syntax, so this is probably a bug in MySQL's parser.

Ok, I've fixed the problem Smile It is now slowly building the search index..

I've changed:
<?php
$bb2 
$dbname '.' $table_prefix;
?>


to:
<?php
mysql_select_db
($dbname$ib);
$bb2 $table_prefix;
?>

P.S.: It seems that the part that downloads & checks the remote avatars could be optimized. It now downloads them twice..

Conversion process happens once, so I am not too concerned about speed. If you can offer an optimization patch I'd definately review it and consider it for inclusion.
