K_N Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 Currently have a test forum set up. Converting users works perfectly. Converting all the posts to IPB takes about 13 hours per try, and it's not working completely right now, so it's a little slow going until I figure out why. Once I've confirmed posts get converted properly, we'll start the plan to move the forum. Stay tuned.
StarPanda Posted October 3, 2017 Posted October 3, 2017 As long as my post count stays the same I'm ok with anything
Misaka Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Nah I think we need to cut yours. You'll lose 3k posts
NaBarney Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 As long as my post count stays the same I'm ok with anything 5 digits How the hell
Guest The Hound Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 I've got the theme from the last gen of lithum made, and 04-07 made. I need some pics if anyone's got them of any other color schemes we had on lithium.
K_N Posted October 10, 2017 Author Posted October 10, 2017 Update status: waiting on help from IPB Support concerning migration.
SwimModSponges Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 Fanfictions will be migrated, right? Because with my computer down, this is currently the only place where they exist.
NaBarney Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 Please do the right thing here admin. This is our last, best chance to be rid of those FFUCKING fanfictons
NaBarney Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 But i have a new reader irl. They better read quick
K_N Posted October 11, 2017 Author Posted October 11, 2017 Fanfictions wont be migrated, but I'll leave this place accessible as an archive for a while in case you want to move them over yourself.
Raptorpat Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 I suppose we could have an on-board fanfics folder, if that would make you happy
Misaka Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Fanfictions wont be migrated, but I'll leave this place accessible as an archive for a while in case you want to move them over yourself. Time online Will that be moved as well or removed?
Raptorpat Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 stats. you mean user stats. we're running into a problem, everything has transferred over except yours. you have to start from 0.
SwimModSponges Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 I suppose we could have an on-board fanfics folder, if that would make you happy That would make me very happy.
Raptorpat Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 I just tried to set something up: Field 'topic_solved' doesn't have a default value File: /var/www/unevenedge.com/htdocs/Sources/Subs-Boards.php Line: 822 Note: It appears that your database may require an upgrade. Your forum's files are currently at version SMF 2.0.13, while your database is at version 2.0.12. The above error might possibly go away if you execute the latest version of upgrade.php. And *that's* why we're switching to IPB.

Misaka Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 stats. you mean user stats. we're running into a problem, everything has transferred over except yours. you have to start from 0. You realize I can just regain them by lurking Also you're a real bad lair
K_N Posted October 12, 2017 Author Posted October 12, 2017 someone uses apache We do, but I could just as easily have the same folder structure with nginx - I just like the /var/www/domain root.
Raptorpat Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Ok SwimModSponges[/member] because I couldn't create a new folder just yet, I gave you exclusive access to one of the folders I shut down. That should be enough for you to copy your work into threads before the conversion, and then we can move it all into a new public fanfic folder after the upgrade. A couple other people had posted writings too, but I'm guessing if they really want to save their work, they have functioning computers to do so.
SwimModSponges Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Ok, so when do i have to do this thing by?
Raptorpat Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 I unlocked the "stuff" folder just to you, copy everything into there. Once the board conversion happens, I will make a proper folder where you can post them.
SwimModSponges Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Ok, thats going to be painful to do on a phone, but i can do this.
Guest Eregion Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Hey what if I don't want my account converted to the new boards? Is that an option?
Misaka Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Hey what if I don't want my account converted to the new boards? Is that an option? That would be a "delete my account" instead option The account is part of the software if a section was transferring then all needs to transfer
wacky1980 Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 dr mario practices "leave no trace" principles. here's a question that's probably already been answered. did anyone, at any point before the original original boards died, ever pull a backup of user stats or anything? ipb seems (from my complete lack of investigation into the matter) flexible enough that it could possibly import more data than previous replacement boards...

Are we still going with the whole "this isn't a ASMB fan/resurrection board"?(that's what Luuv always said but I'm not sure what the stance is now) If so, I would think we shouldn't do that anyway.
K_N Posted October 19, 2017 Author Posted October 19, 2017 This is the issue I'm dealing with right now: Conversion finished! So where the fuck is everything?
André Toulon Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 This is the issue I'm dealing with right now: Conversion finished! So where the fuck is everything? Dunno, but OK with a clean slate.....No idea why people are so attached to posts.
NaBarney Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 Dunno, but OK with a clean slate.....No idea why people are so attached to posts. Yeah... It might be for the best
Raptorpat Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 There are certain boards (see: Rants) that would certainly benefit from a hard reset. But I don't think I'd be happy about deleting everything, including all of JMC's own posts, and sponges would be not amused that he tediously copied all of his fanfics only to lose them anyways. What I don't understand is why they haven't responded to KN yet.
SwimModSponges Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 I would be very upset about that. In fact, someone should go and download all my work so its saved in the event that conversion is not possible. I nominate ghostrek[/member].

Naraku4656 Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 We do, but I could just as easily have the same folder structure with nginx - I just like the /var/www/domain root. i know an apache error when i see it. DON'T TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME

SwimModSponges Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 ghostrek[/member] should go and download all my work so its saved in the event that conversion is not possible.

You don't have them saved to your own comp......What kinda artist are you.
K_N Posted October 20, 2017 Author Posted October 20, 2017 i know an apache error when i see it. DON'T TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME That wasn't an apache error though, it's an exception generated by PHP's PDO library/MySQL API. :robotlol
Misaka Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 What I don't understand is why they haven't responded to KN yet. Did KN ever get a response from them?
