Ok the sites are working now and the theme is getting there, i transferred from a 6.5 production site to the Raven 7.6 2.02.02 distro and then upgraded the forums to 2.0.21
[ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ] [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

Is there any easy way to transfer members from the 6.5 site to the 7.6 site? If it's just mapping the tables from one to the other and some sql then I may be able to do it.

Also need to do the same thing with the previous posts...

Are there too many different fields or new encryptions in the new tables preventing me from moving to the new one?

not much of an admin or mySQL guy but I can figure it out....

thanks, BurZ-

Forget updating the forums until the site is working ok.
You may need to apply the upgrade sql files to bring your 6.5 table schema into line with the 7.6 one

Note that the next version of RavenNuke will include 2.0.21 forums. However, this current one should have 2.0.20 already.

Run the phpNuke upgrade scripts to get up to 7.6. Then run the RavenNuke installer to install NSN Groups and Nuke Sentinel tables only.

Just to add a perhaps unnecessary note of caution. Make sure you have a good back up of your tables before starting.

And when you run the Ravennuke installer make SURE that you don't run the core tables update ... in other words follow what Evaders said literally. The core tables routine drops all the tables before it starts building new ones.

For the members..

Drop the Nuke_users table.
Then import your old Nuke_users table

(assuming that your using something like PhpMyadmin)

Caveat: You must use the same God user/password combination during setup as you have in your old back-up.

yes, ill second that. However i dont think it really matters for importing the Nuke user accounts. But it definatly does if your importing your Nuke Admins (nuke_authors table)

Thats correct. The caveat is based on the fact that during the install process, Sentinel will add the God user/pass to the 'protected range' and there is a slim chance that you might accidentally ban yourself from an admin link if you forget to update that if the imported God user/pass from a table back-up is different.

Given that there are changes to the users table (esp from a version jump 6.5 to 7.6), I don't recommend this method. The upgrade scripts are prefered to get the necessary database changes.
