[3.3.x] Convertors • Re: convert ancient IPB to phpBB?

$

As a related question, I understand to convert IPB-> phpBB I'll need the .sql file with all the tables (and separately the attachment files) from the old IPB forum. When running the converter I guess I'll be able to point to the .sql file path and name (and attachment path)? Everything will be on a local machine.

The .sql file was created on the separate IPB forum server with command:

Code:

mysqldump --opt -c -e -Q -h$HOST -u$USER -p$PASSWORD $DBNAME > $DBNAME.sql
I have root access to the IPB forum server (but not web access like cpanel etc) so I can run whatever command I like - should I run mysqldump with any different options or is this command OK for the conversion?
