Who has Access to the official XF-Board with License?

Hello everyone,

I'm currently struggling with a problem after Xenforo Migration. I found a "maybe-fix" in the official forum, but attached files are only downloadable for licensed customers. Does anyone of you guys have a license and would be so kind to download/reupload those for me?
I need 2 files attached to this post: http s://xenforo.com/community/threads/vbulletin-big-board-importer-vbulletin-3-vbulletin-4-paid.52796/page-46#post-936870

Thank you very much in advance!

in some brief testing, I've had two users already say they can't login using their passwords.

Anyone heard of this? The one user I've questioned so far said he used an extended character in his password. Is this a known issue?

Maybe it's because it's encoded differently in the old database?

I can't be sure it's the same issue but...
I recently had this problem with a client's forum. I did some debugging and found that the auth upgrade system was corrupting the auth data somehow. As of XF 1.2 the auth system will attempt to convert other auth schemes (such as the vB scheme) to the more secure default scheme. This happens on login.
I still need to find a solution for this. In the meantime I avoided the problem by creating these non-upgradable auth schemes (attached) and querying the xf_user_authentication table to update the handlers appropriately. In addition, I edited the XenForo_Authentication_Abstract class to specify 'XenForo_Authentication_CoreNoUpgrade' for the default auth scheme:


Code:

/**
* Factory method to create the default authentication handler.
*
* @return XenForo_Authentication_Abstract
*/
public static function createDefault()
{
return self::create('XenForo_Authentication_CoreNoUpgrade');
}


Once I find a proper fix then the Abstract edit can be reversed and the handlers changed (to the equivalent default ones) in the xf_user_authentication table, then everything should work fine. This fix is a stopgap until I find a real fix.

I already got it in my archive, here it is

I have access to the official XF-Board with a license. I'll download the files you need and share them with you later. Here's what I'll do: Go to the XenForo forum thread you linked, click the "Download" button for the two files, save them on my computer, upload them to a file-sharing service like Google Drive or Dropbox, and then send you the links.

You can also try contacting the author of the vBulletin Big Board Importer for the files or search for a free/open-source alternative. Another option is to manually migrate your forum data from vBulletin to XenForo. I'll inform you once the files are uploaded.
