No boards after upgrade from phpBB 2.022

[tabletguy]

I am attempting to upgrade a forum from phpBB 2.022 (current) to IntegraMod, but when I'm done, I don't see any forums. I have synced the forus after the upgrade .script was run.

(EDIT: Preview wiped out all the detail steps, so adding them back here.)

[*]Created a new install of phpBB 2.022 on a new domain (to test the upgrade before applying to live)
[*]Backed up current LIVE forum using phpmyadmin.
[*]Imported the backup .script into (over) the new phpBB.
[*]Downloaded full 1.41 install, and unzipped.
[*]Removed install and prill_install directories, and the config.php files.
[*]Rebased a new zip file, removing the top level IMI141 directory, so that I could unpack directly over existing forum file structure.
[*]Uploaded and unpacked.
[*]Did all the chmod stuff.
[*]Created a new install directory and put the upgrade to 1.41 php .script in it.
[*]Ran the update .script.
[*]Used phpmyadmin to fix up the paths in phpbb_config table to point to new domain.
[*]Logged in as admin, and updated new security fields.
[*]Ran the database maintenance to sync the forums. Log messages showed all the forum names, etc.
[*]All the users are present in the new system.
[/list]

However, NO forums are present, only the new php "Test" forum.

At the end of the update .script, it says

Update completed
Please make sure you have updated your board files too, this file is only updating your database.

I don't understand what it's telling me to do next. I'm not sure what the phrase "update your board files" could mean other than what I've already done.

Any ideas, on HOW I can get the forums back without repeating everything, etc?

Or any steps I've done wrong, missed, etc?

Thanks!

double check your chmod for includes/def_tree.php
It must be 666, then you have to resync forums from acp/forum admin
If none of your acp changes seem to work, double check your db dir paths, or just run cookieMOD (available here in the general dl section
