I’m going to test it.

But the only big problem I'm having is the "Admin" function within my form produces the error above.  The techs at Knownhost are looking into it if it is a migration problem but I don't think so? Any ideas how to resolve this?

Place the directories in their proper place - yabbfiles on the same level as the cgi-bin and yabb2 inside the cgi-bin.<br /><br />Make sure setup.pl, yabb.pl and admin.pl are CHMOdded to 755. Also Convert2x.pl<br />Run setup.pl - that will tell you what required Perl mods are missing.<br /><br />Once Setup has successfully run, You should get a prompt to run the converter.<br /><br />The converter as not been tested on the most recent Perl. If you get errors, save the error text and we can do fixes.<br /><br />If your old forum was working you'd copy BoardConvert.pl into your OLD yabb2 folder and run it from there on your OLD forum to get a converted forum.control.<br /><br />Since your old forum isn't working, you can't. Which means your boards may be messed up on converting. These CAN be fixed by hand.<br /><br /> https://yabbforumsoftware.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1730896298/0#0 YaBB Development & Mods/Test Zone https://yabbforumsoftware.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1730896298/0#0 no-email@yabbforumsoftware.com (Nahmeshalino) Wed, 6 Nov 2024 12:31:38 GMT hafa https://yabbforumsoftware.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1728083209/1#1 YaBB Development & Mods/General Board https://yabbforumsoftware.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1728083209/1#1 no-email@yabbforumsoftware.com (RonS2) Tue, 8 Oct 2024 11:30:08 GMT Anybody have an idea what the problem may be?
