Hello all,

I have been having a heck of time trying to import phpbb into XF. Started with 2.0.1 and downgraded top 1.5.x per the suggestions.

I am running into this issue now with th eimport (note i added the x's). Once this is done i hope to install the addons and move to 2.0.x.

Thanks for any help.

This error is usually caused by the following values being exceeded:

wait_timeout
max_allowed_packet

Try again after increasing those values (usually in my.cnf but your host might have specific advice).

Turns out this helped. Posting for anyone else to use.

I had the wrong server and when i put in the "correct" one it couldn't find the right avatar and files path which is why i didn't think it was correct earlier on.

Refer to this https://xenforo.com/community/threads/importing-into-phpbb-need-help.110398/

Specifically
Navigate to admin.php?tools/phpinfo and search for DOCUMENT_ROOT to get the absolute path of your XenForo installation.
Click to expand...

Put them in for your paths. I also had a file limit reached but i think that had to do with the avatar.
