XF 1.3 Can't find customavatars

[ascott]

Trying to import from my vB4 to my test XF site, it keeps telling me that it can't find the customavatars directory. Permission is set to 0777, any help would be greatly appreciated.

What is the path to the vB directory and what are you entering in the importer?

 

[ascott]

Was keeping what the importer added ./customavatars bit of a noob at this and can't remember how to get the directory path, I take it that's what I need to add?

 

[Mike]

You can enter a path relative to your XF install (eg, ../oldforum/customavatars), if that helps.

Hi mike, I put the /var/www/ etc but it still says that it can't find the avatars directory. Can you give some more detail on what you mean above please.

 

[ascott]

It is just the avatars directory and the the customavatars this time.

Finally got it working.

I'm not seeing an obvious cause for that; it should process moderator roles per user. Only potential situation I could see is if multiple users that were both moderators were merged together -- that's a situation that's fairly difficult to handle here. (Though there may actually be code to handle that.)

Any idea if there is a merged user involved here? If you refresh, does it happen again?

 

[ascott]

Did get it to import, like you say it was my account that caused the problem. I had selected the second option when merging moderators and it failed, selected the first option the second time and it went ahead.
Thanks Mike.
