Strange, I used those files to convert before adding the zip. If you set us up an ftp account and a root account for the forum, I can have a look.

I have set up an ftp but it is telling me login failed. Maybe I have to wait a bit for it to get updated

I just had another look at the folders, the arcade one is actually /index.php (have also changed first topic to reflect now)

At the bottom of prosilver there is a link to delete board cookies.

I don't think I had the prosilver theme on and the one I do have on doesn't have that link. I am reupping my old forum back and I will import my database back in and start over and see what happens

Well I have it back up and running now. Is it alright to have prosilver2 for my style when I try this again. I am going to have to do it tomorrow though. My wife needs on here now.

yep it is best to have prosilver set as default style for converting it over.

Well I wnet through the steps again and still having problems. This is the error I get when I load my forum now:
General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Table 'theoutdo_pbb01.chat' doesn't exist [1146]

Also in step 8 it says to purge the cache. I am not sure where I should do that at.

I got several faults when trying to upgrade from my plain, new phpbb3. I solved several faults by searching here and gugle, but at the end I gave up, and installed a plain new portal. Im sure I could have worked out everything at last, but since Im not an php/MySql-expert (far from...), I couldnt use more time for this.
No big trouble, I had only a few hundreds posts and 30-something users, so they just have to reregister. Install of the new portal worked as a charm. The portal is really a nice piece of work!

I am not sure why some are getting some errors. When I tested it, it seemed to go through trouble free. Maybe an issue with cookies?
