YaBB 1 Gold to YaBB SE Converter

Notice: Undefined variable: step in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs
onverter.php on line 28

This program will convert an existing Y1G board into an existing Yabb SE install.
You must meet the following requirements to continue:

You must have YaBB SE installed. If it is not click here.
You must have YaBB SE installed with the same database prefix as you intend to convert to. i.e. if you are converting and intend to use the prefix yabbse2_ you must have, at some point, set up a YaBB SE install using that prefix. Otherwise, this converter will be trying to insert data into tables that don't exist.
You must have not have the encrypt passwords mod installed. If you must notify your users they will have to use the 'forgot password' function to reset their passwords. YaBB SE password encryption is incompatible with the encrypt password mod. Be prepared to change your passwords

Note: On Windows-based hosts, usernames are case-insensitive. This may result in some posts being mislabeled as 'Guest' postings when in reality, a user simply posted while logged in with a different case (i.e. alexandra as opposed to Alexandra) for more details on this, and ways to get around the problem, please visit the YaBB SE Community.

[cypher720]

please...i really want to get this up!!

[Jeff Lewis]

Copy the line from your php.ini file that is for error reporting... here so I can have a look.

[cypher720]

error_reporting  =  E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

[cypher720]

all that does is eliminate the error msg's.  i still cant get past the first step

[Jeff Lewis]

Ok fine well that clears up one of the issues...then what is register-globals set to? i said to turn it to ON for now and then try it. Did you?

[cypher720]

then i get this.  i can proceed until the end, but there are a bunch of errors, and nothing happens
