In windows, you really won't get much results with \ and / in your file path, \ is correct for a Windows file path


Go here with your browser, if your attachments show up this is the correct URI

file:///C:/xampp/htdocs/community/attachments

if it is correct you should put the following in the attachments directory field

C:\xampp\htdocs\community\attachments
I had a typo in there, try that...
 
file:///C:/xampp/htdocs/community/attachments/

that worked in both ways now its now finding another error

Error
The controller XenForo_ControllerAdmin_Import does not define an action called RetrieveLog.

when i try and retrive the archived log in the xf db which is there as i did a partial import already
 
god after all that i still cant do what i set out to do, thanks everyone for the help at worse i suppose i could do a full import like this, ill ask on jon wandigos thread

thanks again guys(y)(y)
