Migrate from Joomla 2.5 to 3.0

gabedaly 31 Mar, 2013
I'm using Chronoforms V4 3.5 on Joomla 2.5.9 now and I am in the process of testing Joomla 3.0.3. I installed the new Chronoforms for 3.0 and tried restoring my backup forms from Joomla 2.5. The forms show up in the admin area but I am getting a user error (username@localhost not allowed using password no) or something like that. I already changed the DB tables in the record loader and custom codes but I am still getting this error.
Do I have to rebuild all the forms if I make the switch to Joomla 3 or is there a work around?
Thanks as always,
Gabe

Hi Gabe,

What error are you getting exactly and where does it show?

There is nothing I can think of in ChronoForms that would create an error about usernames and passwords. That looks more like an FTP login error. Do you have FTP enabled in your site Global Configuration?

There are a few rough edges in going from 2.5 to 3.0 but 95%+ of the code works smoothly.

Hi Bob
Happy Easter to all that celebrate! Thanks for the reply but it ended up being my mistake. Joomla 3.0 is quite different. I had the database set to MYSQLi instead of MYSQL. Sorry to have bothered you all about this.
Thanks
Gabe
