I just successfully installed ver 7.1.1 and imported from 6.5.4

Everything went very smoothly, thankfully!

The only problem I have is that after changing the URL in the redirect scripts and uploading them to the old (6.5.4) directory, nothing happens when I go to the old forum: no redirect to the new directory. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Did you update the redirector scripts? They require the url to your ubb7 install.

Yes, I did.

Do they give any error, or just a blank screen when you pass data through them?

Could you provide a URL to the redirect scripts?

Hm, maybe I misunderstood what they're supposed to do. When I type in the scripts themselves they redirect. But I thought they would redirect users automatically to the new forum when they visited the old one.

Here's the scripts:

http://www.huntingpa.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php
http://www.huntingpa.com/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php

They appear to be working fine:

You can try clicking on some of your old SE links and they'll redirect you to their proper *new* location:

Ok, thanks!

All of the links to my old threads get this error...

Original Link - http://www.dancesafe.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=198346&page=0&vc=1#Post198346

Destination Url:
http://www.dancesafe.org/booth/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/198346/site_id/1#import

Page Error

No input file specified.

Help?

"no input file specified" is a 404 error message generataed when PHP is loaded as a CGI; a 404 error means that a requested file doesn't exist (source).

I'm not sure why you'd be getting a "not found" error though...

You also get the same error when going to:
http://www.dancesafe.org/booth/ubbthreads.php/ubb/cfrm

So.. the importer worked fine after I fixed the DB issues. It said I ran through with no problems whatsoever...

The importer scripts are accurate, and I have even re-uploaded them and double checked the settings to make sure they are working...

I am now confused.

Although.. looking at this sites redirect... I notice that where mine says /Number/198346/site_id/1#import the one here says /Number/189007#Post189007 ... Wondering if for some reason mine contains something extra?
