I am getting that as well. Anyone else?

Yes; I'm getting this for newer threads. Not all of them, for example this one works:

http://213.229.125.78/~fullbor2/viewtop ... 97fc989e6d

Remember what I said would happen if you restore an incremental or differential backup into a database that had been modified since restoring the corresponding full back? This is just the kind of behaviour I would expect. Could that be the cause?

I had hoped that as I did a full copy of the 'old' FB to the new host that I could then add the phpBB3 backup which is only 16MB in size via the phpBB3 admin console, apparently not...

There is a fix for it:

change includes/db/mssql_odbc.php:

Find:

Code: Select all
function sql_rowseek($rownum, $query_id = false)

replace with:

Code: Select all
function sql_rowseek($rownum, &$query_id)

Alternatively we run a full backup again tonight at say midnight and copy it over, then change the DNS and call that the cut off point.

Yes, I am seeing it now, but NOT on every thread. Some threads are fine and some not.


I agree with your 00:00 cut off - can you take the site down at midnight and back that up. Take the back up across, and install. Also change the old site headings to say - moved to 213.xxx.xxx.xxx ?

I have just tried the new site from my phone.

Access OK - but missing forums, as expected. Login and save password, fiine can now see forums including GOM.

Enter GOM and then select post - returned a new page stating:

The board requires you to be registered and logged in to view this forum.

but I was already logged in!

I did login and the thread was accessed, albeit with the The requested topic does not exist.
message.

I just tried to repeat this in GoM but could not see the issue, I tried a few posts and was not asked to login again.

Odd...

I can now view posts up to and including the 1st September - any newer than this cause the above error.
