Description
Selecting the cleanup option does clear the migration settings, but fails to empty (truncate) the phpbb2drupal tables created in the drupal database while migrating (phpbb2drupal_temp_forum, phpbb2drupal_temp_post, phpbb2drupal_temp_topic, phpbb2drupal_temp_user). I had to empty them manually:
TRUNCATE `phpbb2drupal_temp_forum` ;
TRUNCATE `phpbb2drupal_temp_post` ;
TRUNCATE `phpbb2drupal_temp_topic` ;
TRUNCATE `phpbb2drupal_temp_user` ;My guess is that since my phpbb forum tables where in a different database, the module tried to empty them in the phpbb database and failed to do it in the drupal database.
Once I truncated them manually, I was able to successfully import a second forum into the same drupal installation.

That behaviour is intentional (on my part anyway, not sure what was the intention of the original) - the data is also used by the phpbb_redirect module.
The best way to get rid of all data is to uninstall and then re-install the module.
Not sure if the behaviour should change.
