Hello,
I have migrated from phpbb2 to drupal 6 my whole forum but unfortunetly the topic and posting authors are not the same like in the original phpbb forum.

Why?

Did you use the correct version of the module? 6.x-2.0 is for phpbb3 only - you need the 1,x series to migrate from phpbb2.

Also if from a previous migration the data in the temp tables is incorrect, that would also cause such problems.

I had used 2.0 version for phpbb2 but later I noticed that I need 1.x so I just uninstalled 2.x and installed 1.x and tried migration again but still it doesnt work correct. I have checked the UID it is not the same in the database like the phpbb UID´s

did you just disable the module? please totally uninstall it after disabling (to delete all the tables) and then re install.

The past data cannot be fixed so you will need to do a new import from scratch and it should work correctly.

its the same error also after re-installing.

The UID in the users table of drupal is like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and so on but on phpbb´s its like 1,2,5,9,10,11,12,20,21 so its not so regular like 1 to 10.

what about the "user_id"?

That tables does mapping - the uid is the drupal uid, while the user_id is the phpbb user_id. it maps the two accounts to each other.

Think after three years we can safely say that this issue is now moot. Please re open if you have more info.
