The import problem was solved by erasing the thread tags and subscriptions in vbulletin, for some reason mysql was refusing to execute queries on some tags / subscriptions (encoding?). The import tho has problems and i will open another thread for this.
This thread can now be closed
Small bump.
Sorry but i need to fix this problem ASAP and we are running out of ideas to make it work.
When it hangs it says something like: Importing Discussions (x-y) then all of a sudden it just prints “-” every 5 seconds or so and nothing is being imported, even stopping and resuming the process does not help, from that point on all it does is print more – on the lower box used for the status.
It is not a problem of timeouts or similars, it is a local copy of our live site running only the import.
Sadly the import fails still, this time even sooner than before.
With the 2.6 it can’t complete the thread imports while with the curent stable it reaches the replies.
As a side note the import is slower on the new 2.6.
Any idea what else could be tried to make the import succeed?
It is installed and importing, will let you know if the import fails or not.
