When this happens, it always seems to be the attachments step. I think it usually relates to a timeout happening and then the subsequent refresh failing.

To try to workaround it, you need to go into something like phpMyAdmin and into the xf_attachment table. Look for any entries with an attachment_id of 702 or greater and remove them. Then try to continue the import. Did that solve it?

Just tried this and came up with a fatal error page
Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 82313216) (tried to allocate 9792 bytes) in /homepages/1/d535499013/htdocs/vgforums/testsite/library/XenForo/Image/Gd.php on line 215

Right, that's likely what happened before or similar. You're likely to have to repeat the process I explained above to continue, in addition to adding the following to config.php:

$config['maxImageResizePixelCount'] = 10000000;

Your server doesn't seem to allow you to use the full PHP memory_limit value and thumbnailing large images needs a large amount of memory. That line will prevent thumbnailing for images that are larger than ~10 megapixels (the default is 20 megapixels).

Apply that change and refresh the import; you'll probably get the duplicate ID error, so you'll have to repeat that step. You should be able to continue after that. If you get an out of memory error again, you can reduce the value of that config.php line further.

 

[Wicksy33]

is that the config.php on PHPbb side or xenforo side?

 

[Paul B]

Add it to the XenForo \library\config.php file.

That worked a treat guys thank you, had to change it to this for it to run through tho

$config['maxImageResizePixelCount'] = 5000000;
