Ok. So I am in the middle of a switch from an asp message board, snitz
to be exact, to pbpbb. So far I have not all the members, forums, and
categories converted. But the toll I found made by a nifty person
named Raluca Musaloiu-E. is not working for the topics. I think this
is because there is too many special characters in the body of the
posts to the board.
Here is the error I am getting. And bellow that is the converter that
Raluca Musaloiu-E made. Any suggestions of things I can try to the
converter work? It is only converting about 7 posts out of 4,000.
