Attachment Import Problem
 

I have just installed VB 4.0 PL1, and have been working on importing my old forum data into VB. I have gotten everything imported and working properly with the exception of the attachments. Here are the details:

* Importing from a PostNuke/PNPHPBB2 board using ImpEx 1.94

* All posts, users, threads, forums, etc. imported without issues

* Forum contains over 115,000 posts and about 600MB of attachments

* I have checked and re-checked the full path issue that is so commonly a problem with attachment imports, and I am pretty certain that I have it correct. I have verified it numerous times using the SSH and pwd method.

* Attachments for old board are hosted on a seperate web server from the old board (same physical server)

* Attachments are set to be stored in file system in VB, with a proper storage path

The error I am seeing is the same old 'Source file not found' error that usually points to an incomplete path. The only thing I can think of is that ImpEx is having trouble because the attachments are stored on a seperate web server than the old board.

I hve tried copying the attachments directory up to the same web server as the board (and changing the path appropriately), but that didn't help either.

Any ideas?
