PHPBB3 cannot work on new interface

[azrin]

This came by when I upgraded / FRESH INSTALL on my new phpBB3

Error: Are you certain that your database prefix is set properly?

I cannot see your phpBB2 "phpbb_groups" table.

The prefix setting adds characters to the front of phpBB2 table names - please doublecheck this.

So, I moved my cookie to be old phpbb2 and the prefix on phpbb_ and yet it did not see.....the groups etc

What gives?

We do not support phpbb3 at this time which is confirmed by seeing what integrations with forums we do integrate with here.I can not say if and when we will support phpbb3 but we will announce this if we will support this sometime in the future

What Integrations we support!!

Shouldn't be an issue because the structure and other aspect don't change.
That is something I was made aware of.

Infact, PHPBB has given the 'warning' of the imminent change about 3mths ago so should be a smooth change....unless I have to mod it myself.

Your welcome to try but phpbb3 is a total rewrite therefore you will need to use phpbb2 until such time as we announce that we support that forum.

Back to the drawing board then. I migrated..and seems I have to retrieve my backup all over again..OUCH!!
