I reset the forum, then upgraded to bbpress 2.6 alpha, checked the “purge previous import” checkbox (just to be sure), then started the import process again and got this lovely error message:

“WordPress database error: [Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes]
CREATE TABLE blp_bbp_converter_translator ( meta_id mediumint(8) unsigned not null auto_increment, value_type varchar(25) null, value_id bigint(20) unsigned not null default ‘0’, meta_key varchar(255) null, meta_value varchar(255) null, PRIMARY KEY (meta_id), KEY value_id (value_id), KEY meta_join (meta_key, meta_value) ) DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci”

So I unchecked the purge option and tried again. It’s currently importing the users.
