sunddebat Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I have converted from VB5 to IPS 3 and then upgraded to IPS4, but there's no old private messages available when you check your profile. I can see that their all in the database and adding new messages work. Any idea ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul.F Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 When you converted, did it come up with any errors on the conversion screen? Did you do a rebuild after the conversion? Finalization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunddebat Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 Hi Paul No and Yes. No errors. I can see that the messages are linked to their old member id's and when converting they all got new ones.I can also see that theres a table called conv_link that can link old and new member ID. I just don't know it they at some point will be linked somehow. The background processes are still running (it takes quite a while). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul.F Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 If you still have issues after the background processes have finished I can have a look for you if you like. Have done the same for a few people here. Just PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunddebat Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 Actually it might just be my own messages, because I can't seem to find any of those in the database. Probably because my old admin ID was 1 as was the admin account I setup the new IP board with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul.F Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 It should have merged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunddebat Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 I got another user to test and unfortunately it's not just me. Apparently my userID 1 was changed to 2 and the messages is there just not shown. I hope the background processes will fix this, but they take a while.

sunddebat Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 The processes have finished unfortunately they ended by deleting my core_message_post. Luckily I allready experimented with dublicates, exchanging the user ID's with the new ones, but I can only see the messages I sent and not the ones I received. What have I done wrong ?

sunddebat Posted October 5, 2015 Author Share Posted October 5, 2015 I tried to start over and convert to a fresh IPB 3 and this time the messages seem to be there, but the coverter only imported about 15000 out of 24000 and still only the ones that I have started and not the ones others have started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
