synch problem after doing 76 of 500+
« on: May 07, 2005, 01:08:34 AM »
The last synch step is bugging me out..

Failed: Please enter a valid Username:. No spaces, more than 2 characters and contain 0-9,a-z,A-Z

I only have 76 users of about 500 imported.. it won't do them all, and that is the error message i get. Sad

User number 76 is called administrator and is definately the default administrator. Seems it couldnt overwrite it or something and stopped with a silly error message.

I believe there are some user data in SMF that uses characters that are invalid to mambo.

Right now, all I can advise is for you to check the SMF member table and see which user might be causing it. Check for funky looking usernames.

I had the same problem when I tried to sync.

The problem turned out to be the member AFTER the one it reported as being a problem as that user had only 2 letters as a username.

Once I changed the username to three letters and re-sync'd, it went without a hitch.

It now complains:

Failed: This e-mail is already registered. If you forgot the password click on \"Lost your Password\" and new password will be sent to you.

I tried this query

SELECT count(  *  ) ,  `emailAddress`
FROM  `smf_members`
GROUP  BY  `emailAddress`
HAVING count(  *  )  > 1;

And got zero rows. What gives?

That was another problem that I had with sync.

I had a test account in SMF and one in Mambo. It turned out that I had used slightly different usernames but had used the same e-mail address so the sync thought they were different people with the same e-mail.

Once I changed the test account usernames to be EXACTLY the same, the sync worked fine.

Hope that helps.

I think my synch went without a hitch.

What's the best way to check that all of my SMF members are now Mambo members?

Your error is about a duplicate email. You're syncing an SMF user w/c email is already in mambo. Do you know how to query it manually?

The only user in mambo was administrator with a unique email adress, i never registered that email on the VB that converted to SMF.

That one existing user in Mambo was deleted by me too.. I EMTIED the usertable of mambo.. it was entirely empty.. (strange thing is that i held my non existing session in the backend lol).. but even then it didn't synch..
