1.3.9 to 1.4.1 upgrade

I just upgraded a test faq I have from 1.3.9 to 1.4.1

2 things:

1. when running bbcode2xhtml I received a timeout error. "Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in ...function.php on line 313"

I ran it again and it said that it completed. Now I don't know if it really did restart where it left off or if there are some entries that were not converted.

I have 218 records in this test faq system.

2. The Comments look like they were not converted from bbcode. I see this where there should be line breaks <br>

Hi,

it is possible that your great number of entries are to big for PHP and MySQL.

The second one I have to test.

so, do you think there are entries that it did not convert? (I haven't found any yet)

maybe the converter can run in smaller chunks? maybe loop through 50 entries at a time and keep looping until they are all processed?

I need to look at the BBcode converter code also, it seems to add in too many blank lines for my liking.

Hi,

you could test, if a shorter peroid of executing SQL queries helps. Look for the

Code: Select all

wait(250);

in the convert script and decrease the number to e.g. 100. If you run the converter a second time you will add new lines of the second time.
