phpBB3 to VB4PL1 attachment importing issue
 

Hi there,

Why do I think that attachments cannot be imported at all?

I am using ver 1.94 and the ImpExDatabase_400.php

At first I was getting Attachment not imported fails for every single attachment there is in phpbb files folder.
Then I saw "attach file 2" just before "Failed :: Attachment not imported" and I dig around the code to see where this comes from. Then first problem came to surface..

Code:
echo "attach file " . intval($attachfile);
switch (intval($attachfile))
.
.
.
case '2': // file system NEW naming schema
This switch never works and always goes to default: which should never happen.

My system has .. php 5.2.11 but don't have time to search for that so I removed the whole switch() and replaced it with in if (intval($attachfile)==0) ... etc to bypass this issue.. and it worked..

BUT

Now I am getting a mysql error which is very obvious and true.. filesize field does not exist in vb_attachment in vb4.0.0pl1

I stopped here and before I go further figuring out what needs to be done I wrote this post to clarify that impex 1.94 indeed lacks attachment imports to vb4.

Is this the case? and if it is should I go back to vb3.8.4pl1 do the whole import from phpBB3 and then upgrade to vb4? I realy do not wish to do that to be totally honest. :(

By the way impex really rocks! Everything else went smooth from step 1 to 9.
