  hi Folks,
  
  after migrating a Postnuke+phpBB_14 instance form one server to another, all appears well until I try using the forum.
  I can see the list of forums (and the number of posts in each topic, etc) at the main forum link, but if i try to enter any of the forums i get:
  
  Error - The forum/topic you selected does not exist. Please go back and try again.
  
  Also, I get "Access Denied" on a plain white screen when trying to go to Administration -> phpBB_14
  
  All of the forums are still there in the mysql, e.g. nuke_phpbb14_forums table forum_id shows a forum for id 3, and
  SELECT * FROM `nuke_phpbb14_posts` WHERE forum_id = "3"; shows all of those posts.
  
  Any idea how something that appears to be permissions got screwed up? File system permissions appear fine.
  
  Any help would be MOST welcome :)
  
  
  Some other pieces of relevant info - accessing the forums main page works:
  modules.php?op=modload&name=phpBB_14&file=index
  
  And accessing the forums in a category works:
  e.g modules.php?op=modload&name=phpBB_14&file=index&viewcat=6
  
  It's just the specific forum view that throws the "Error - The forum/topic you selected does not exist. Please go back and try again."
  e.g .modules.php?op=modload&name=phpBB_14&file=index&action=viewforum&forum=7
  
  i commented out the lines in admin.php that were causing the "Access Denied" issue to see if a Forum Sync would help but it didnt.

  you should definitly update postnuke and pnforum to the latest stable version... (not only it might fix your problem but it will also improve the site's overall security)...

  hi - my forum is phpbb_14
  can pnForum update from that, or are my posts lost?

  hi larsneo,
  
  i updated to 7.6.2 and pnForum - but i cannot get it to work.
  after installing, i get "Module pnForum not available" when trying to go to the admin pages.
  this is after successfully initializing and activating the module, plus i have checked all file ownership and permissions, and they work fine too.
  
  any ideas?

  figured it out - one of the hooks modules doesn't seem to be working; i unchecked them all and now it shows fine.

  I have the same proble, following an upgrade from phpBB_14 to pnForum 2.7.
  
  I have look at all my hooks, and they are all deactivated.
  
  Any other hint ?
