Currently vB to Drupal only supports importing files and avatars from the vBulletin database. We should add support for when they're stored in the file system too.

drhus commentedyeah that's what i found out, i'm planning to move it disk to DB (on vB) and do the migration again.
Comment #2
drhus commentedDoesn't work with me,
i moved attach and profile pic on vB back to database >> used vbtodrupal for migration i got this error
i tried that 4 times till now, i tried repair optimize mysql vB forum then import .. didn't work
that error happen where the post/users etc all migrated correctly but attach n profile pics
--
>> drupal /sites/Domain.com/files >> is empty nothing
--
i tried again now moved attach back to disk and did the import again
i got the same error above BUT
>> drupal /sites/Domain.com/files and
drupal /sites/Domain.com/files/picture
has all attachments / pics as name ONLY
i mean profile pic on /sites/Domain.com/files/picture al 100001_xxxx.jpg 1000002_xxx.jpg etc
but file size is ZERO
attachments the same story .. all attachments already there but 0 size
(that didn't happens on 1st try when attach/ profile pics on database it happen only when it was on disk)
any ideas ?
Comment #3
drhus commentedthis error 28 on my box is "no space left on device".
Which partition is running out of disk space?
/tmp ?
my box /tmp is 2.0G
where the attachment table on vB database is 28G
if that's the case how can i get around that?
Comment #4
liam mcdermott commentedIt seems the problem is what you thought: the /tmp partition is out of space. I'm not sure what it's doing, probably filling the partition with temporary files, but a paying customer has this problem so I'm working on a way to import from vBulletin when files are stored on disk instead of the database.
