XF 1.2 Importing Attachments

[Maxxamillion]

I looked up a few old threads about this problem but i still can import my forum from mybb all other info is correct but keeps saying attachments patch not found i have tried leaving it as uploads i have tried /public_html/uploads but still nothing any help please

The absolute path would be something like /home/sitename/public_html/uploads

Visit admin.php?tools/phpinfo and search the page for "DOCUMENT_ROOT". That will reveal the full server path.

I'm having the same issue and my doc_root is listed as "null".

 

[Paul B]

Where is MyBB installed currently?

What have you tried in the field for the attachment path?

 

[Cethlenn]

Mybb is installed at http://www.furryrphaven.com/mybb and I have tried ./uploads, /mybb/uploads, uploads, mybb/uploads, furryrphaven.com/mybb/uploads, /furryrphaven.com/mybb/uploads, tower.dreamhost.com/[username]/furryrphaven.com/mybb/uploads ... [username]/...

Do you have ssh access to your server?

 

[Paul B]

Logging in to FTP may show the path.

 

[Cethlenn]

I do, and I'm about to try that- i uploaded an attachment and have been looking for it via filezilla. Thank you.

 

[Cethlenn]

ok, I went in via ftp and the attachments directory is ftp://ftp.furryrphaven.com/furryrphaven.com/mybb/uploads/ which the Xenforo software apparently cannot find?

 

[Jeremy]

Is your FTP restricted to individual folders? If you submit a ticket with ftp, ssh, admin and control panel access I can look into this further for you tonight.

 

[Cethlenn]

I don't believe it is. Let me get it set up and submit the ticket. I'm talking to my host as well.

 

[Cethlenn]

Alright, the import directory issue is fixed, it was a /home/userid issue that my host had to tweak perms on. I will probably not need to submit a ticket after all! Thank heavens!
