After having this info posted in another thread and the thread direction heading the wrong way, I've decided to repost. I wanted a clean install of XOOPS 2.2, after having run a XOOPS site for the better part of a year and a half now. I figured I would manually migrate my users into the new database, and have halfway successfully done it. By halfway, I mean that all users can log in and access areas on the site that they have rights too. Unfortunetaly, message board posts, find user listings, comments, none of these modules are picking up usernames form the database. I exported my 2.0.13 user fields, imported them to 2.2 tables, ran xoopsupdate.php and updated system module...with these results.



If anyone could offer advice to get my usernames to populate and function the way they should, it would be greatly appreciated. tia

Why are you migrating manually? that is the hard way around. The database has changed between the two versions. An upgrade would have migrated the users automatically.

You will need to compare the SQL from the 2.0.13 version to the SQL of the 2.2 version, edit the 2.0.13 SQL file to match the new tables (if any) and add the option to "add drop tables" so it will clear the tables before creating them.

yup, your user id's (uid) will probly not be synced either..
