Do the tables phpbb2drupal_temp[post,forum,topic,user] serve and purpose after the conversion, or can they be dropped?

I ask because I'm getting a MySQL error now when trying to import a dump including them.

INSERT INTO `phpbb2drupal_temp_post` ( `post_id` , `cid` )
VALUES ( 255, 287 ) ;

MySQL said: Documentation
#1062 - Duplicate entry '255' for key 1

They are used by phpbb_redirect to redirect old links to their new locations.

If you are getting notices of duplicate entries etc, then that may cause problems for those specific links, but should continue working for the rest of the links.

Thanks

Are there any problems with dropping the phpbb2drupal_* tables and disabling or uninstalling phpbb2drupal after the conversion?

Do you have any idea why such an error would occur? My dumps previous to this sudden error imported fine.

The tables are used by phpbb_redirect, so dropping them will be a problem.

If it was a one off problem, then maybe just do the import again as it may have been a one off problem?
