Title: bridging with smf and sharing db tables
Post by: koichirose on January 14, 2005, 12:27:42 PM
i messed up totally my old cpg 1.2.1, so i installed a fresh 1.3.2, bridged with smf
everything works ok, all my albums are gone (i still have all the images on server), but i still have all the db tables of cpg 1.2.1 (they have cpg11d_ prefix).
can i replace someway the 1.3.2 tables to get all my albums, comments, etc working again? what if i rename those tables with phpmyadmin utility?
i don't know if it can be done, thank you

You can try altering your include/config.inc.php to point to the old tables and then run update.php.

should I change this :
$CONFIG['TABLE_PREFIX'] =                'cpg132_';
to this:
$CONFIG['TABLE_PREFIX'] =                'cpg11d_';   ?

and why running update.php?

Yes, you need to run update.php to update your 1.2.1 database to 1.3.2

If there is no useful data there, then yes.
