Hello Alex,

I'm sorry but when I tried to access your backend, I got this: Username and password do not match or you do not have an account yet.. Please advise.

Hello Alex,

Thanks for the access. May I know, all the Easydiscuss posts, did you migrate it all from kunena? Because some of them are able to download the attachment.

Hello Alex,

I've tested to migrate from Kunena to Easydiscuss in my local by installing Kunena, make a new post with attachment and I was able to migrate and see/download the attachment. Can you try to remigrate the kunena post in your test site and see how it goes?

Hello Alex,

I'm sorry but the best solution I can think right now is to re add the attachment for your post. I can see from your easydiscuss attachment table, looks like you have 100 attachments and at least 20 attachments is not working. I can't replicate your issue when migrating in my local and this conclude that the code is working properly.

Ok all i can think off at the moment is that the .pdf .docx is not supported and i can't seem to find where the setting for that is.

because even if the attachement has been migrated i can't see it as i think it can't figure out how to open it, i get a blank page.

Hello Alex,

That was my first thought then I tried to upload .pdf and .docs before migrate in my local. Once migrated I can access/download the files without any problem. And also I've checked your setting, you have already include .pdf and .docx: http://screen.stackideas.com/2015-02-26_1203.png

Hello Alex,

I do notice that there is no mime. But when I checked other entry that doesn't have the mime, most of it still can access/download the file. If this is very urgent, I can re-attach those attachments for you. You can re-provide us your FTP and also your phpmyadmin access so I can re-add the missing attachments based on the correct post.

Hello Alex,

You get the blank page is because the file did not exist when you migrate it before. The idea is like this, your kunena forum posts i stated in the previous reply are missing the attachments at the first place. Then when you try to migrate them to Easydiscuss, those attachments will not be migrated because they are not exist in your FTP. Easydiscuss will get the path of the attachment from kunena which is here: ../media/kunena/attachments/.

Hello Alex,

I can confirm that not only 2 posts that the attachment working because I've tried to download other post and it is working. And I believe it is more than 2 and it is the post that are migrated from Kunena.

Hello Alex,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. There are too many posts on the site to actually go and search for each one of them and since you can't re-migrate all the entries again (As we can a log into a text file as to which kunena posts are missing attachments), I have randomly picked up 7 posts on EasyDiscuss over several pages and it's original post from Kunena,

What I can conclude from these tests is that, the attachments are not missing in EasyDiscuss. They are missing from Kunena because if the files are available in Kunena, it works on EasyDiscuss too based on the test above.

Alex,

There's 2 way to go about this:

1. Fix Kunena posts, and re-migrate everything again (As I read from the reply above, you mentioned that this would not be possible)

2. Edit EasyDiscuss posts and re-upload those files again. (Tedious but this is the other only alternative).
