Possibly, we add importer features as we have paying business hosted customers to migrate – and we always open source those changes!

Good to hear that! Thanks, Jeff!
Just asking: any paying businesses migrating from MyBB right now? 😉

Is there a guide for that right now?

It doesn’t look like it. It works like most of them, though, and I recently added code that allows you to configure most everything in environment variables (as well as support permalinks). You’ll need to add the mysql2 gem (and virtually every guide includes how to do that).

How i use import script? Our Mybb forum and Discourse is not on the same server. I think I could create Mybb database backup and run import script?

The usual method is to install a development environment, copy the database to the development server and run the script.
You might use this howto as an example:

> In this tutorial we will learn how to migrate vBulletin forum to discourse platform using [vBulletin importer script](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/script/import_scripts/vbulletin.rb). I have tested the script with a big database and the result was very good. The script is well written and maintained. Let’s get started slight_smileWhat data can be imported?

Rather than configuring the script as that example suggests, just run it and it’ll tell you what environment variables to set.

I’ve problem in that step (I think its about bundle install):
`RAILS_ENV=production ruby script/import_scripts/mybb.rb`
After that command here is the error:
```

are you running the import script as `discourse` user? If not, you should `su - discourse` before attempting to run the `rails r` part.

You’ll need to install the gem. There are some #howto posts for other importers that you should use as a model. You should read those. There are dozens more tiny little things you’ll need to figure out.
If you need so by step help and have a budget my context info is in my profile.

Ragazzi,
Qualcuno è riuscito a migrare da MyBB a Discourse?
Ho questo errore:

Non ho idea di come risolvere questo problema.

Prova `RAILS_ENV=production rails runner mybb.rb`

Grazie per la risposta, ma ora ho questo:
`/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0/gems/activerecord-6.0.1/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:50:in 'rescue in postgresql_connection': **FATAL: Autenticazione peer fallita per l'utente "discourse" (** **ActiveRecord::NoDatabaseError** **)**`
Dopo aver eseguito `su` per accedere all’utente discourse, ho ottenuto:
```
Specifica un comando ruby valido o il percorso di uno script da eseguire.
Esegui 'rails runner -h' per ottenere aiuto.
variabile locale o metodo `mybb` non definito per main:Object

L’errore è che il tuo Rails non riesce a connettersi al database PostgreSQL. Ti consiglio di indagare sul motivo per cui l’utente `discourse` non può farlo.

Ciao,
Penso di aver risolto il problema, sto seguendo questo riferimento

> Hey guys so after trying for a week or so I decided to import the database on docker app which I hoped it will succeed without any issues. TBH I got some issues at first but it turned to be all easy to solve. Now I would recommend doing this only once before you deploy your production site, after importing everything take a Discourse backup, wipe everything out and install new Discourse instance then restore the imported db. Ok let’s begin: First lets backup your old database from your old …

1. Modifica il file `/etc/postgresql/9.5/main/pg_hba.conf`

Scusa @eviltrout, devo chiedere altro: come possiamo mantenere in esecuzione la migrazione mentre la stiamo chiudendo? Ho dimenticato di eseguirla con screen; posso annullarla e riavviarla?
