php_help Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 I tried browsing the links to posts referenced. But, it only takes me to the forum index page. Probably other forums also have this problem. I think the errors are due to mySQL auto increment numbers being reset or have gone out sync for some reason. How do you generally deal with the problem....that is auto increment numbers for topics or posts getting out of sync? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Can you point me to an example? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 If you have links for really old topics they won't work. The forum software was changed in mid-2006, so the URIs will have changed at that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
php_help Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 Can you point me to an example? For example this link http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=32746&hl= from http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,31047.0.html does not work -- goes to forum index Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The forum software was changed in mid-2006, so the URIs will have changed at that time. So, the conversion between forums is not necessarily as advertised (or not mentioned)? The IDs for posts or topics didn't get converted as far as I can tell. Could be that the tables are entirely different between the forum softwares.

Before I was admin, and before I was even a member here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
