Hello everyone,
I have a backup of vanilla forum sql 5GB, I would like to import it in my wordpress site, I am trying to use import by bbPress, but without success, maybe the file is too large.

Unfortunately the server as OVH does not allow you to edit the php.ini or the phpmyadmin configurations.

How i can solve it?

I would suggest trying it on a local setup using MAMP or XAMP

Then export the forum using WordPress’ “Export” tool, and then the “Import” tool on your site.

p.s I haven’t tested or seen anyone do a Vanilla install for quite a while and sugget you take a close look at the import o make sure it works. Also try bbPress 2.6-alpha, lots of importer improvements, you can get it from here https://bbpress.org/download
