converting on a new server

Not only am I switching to YaBBSe, I'm also switching hosts.

I installed the new yabb thinger, that worked. Now I'm having issues converting the old files. I uploaded them all onto the new server (same host you guys use, so that should make things easier) but now it gives me this error message:

File 69.57.174.162/public_html/cgi-bin/YaBB/Variables/agreement.txt not found

I used the one on the downloads page.

Should the one you pointed me to work better?

The one that [Unknown] pointed to in that post is newer than the one on the downloads page. Use the one in the post instead.

Odd, the topic ID seems to contain extra stuff.  I'll have a look.

I was just coming back to say its actually working now.

One problem was that not all of the files FTPed properly to the new server.

The other was a problem with the converter and the settings file. It didn't like the q^Forum Name^ thing, and it caused a syntax error.

All is working well at the moment though. Thanks for all of your help. I'm sure I'll screw something up in the future and need it again.
