Installing vBulletin when I have an old invisionPB
 

Hello all ! First post here, and already some questions.

Let me introduce the thing:


I run a IPB forum in its 1.3.1 version.

It's old and I've just bought a licence for vBulletin.



Ok, that's for the story. Now let's proceed with the questions.



I have made a backup of the sql database using IPB admin CP.

By the way, I had to deactivate an option in order for the backup not to result in a sql error. The option was:

Quote:
Add 'CREATE TABLE' statements?
Add backticks around the table name?
(if you get a mySQL error, enable this)
So, I had to disable that option completely as even with the "enable this" box checked, I still had an error.

I know have a 12 Mb .sql file and I hope it's enough.


The forum is in a /forums/ folder.

Question:

Is it ok if I place the vB in a temp folder like /newvbforum/ and then install it or am I going to have a problem with it being active at the same time as the old one?
