Hi

I have a phpbb forum in powweb
And I want to use vbulletin, and import all data from my phpbb

So, I use the vbulletin "impex" php script to do it

In config file, I have:


[ Target Database ]
; The following settings allow ImpEx to connect to the vBulletin 3
; database into which you will be importing data.

targetdatabasetype = mysql
targetserver = localhost
targetuser = username
targetpassword = password
targetdatabase = vbulletin_forum
targettableprefix =

[ Source Database ]
; If the system that is being imported from uses a database,
; enter the details for it here and set 'sourceexists' to TRUE.
; If the source data is NOT stored in a database, set 'sourceexists' to FALSE

sourceexists = TRUE

sourcedatabasetype = mysql
sourceserver = mysql01.powweb.com
sourceuser = user
sourcepassword = password
sourcedatabase = database
sourcetableprefix = phpbb_



But I am getting the error:
"Connection to source server failed. Check username and password."
I already check username and password, and is ok

My Target Database is in other hosting, and I am running the IMPEX importing script in my other hosting too....

What could be happening?

Thanks

We don't allow remote applications and scripts to connect to our MySQL servers. You will need to execute the script via your PowWeb webspace in order to connect to your PowWeb database.
