The upgrade was previously done offline successfully, and that's how it will be done again. The conversion has been perfect every time, as well, with the exception of some of the "extras".

the only problem is that the PHPBB3 test forum looks to much like this one.
all the settings are so not PHPBB3, which means that the database is different than it use to be.
however, we could always try to work together on that problem by checking the SQL database.
the best option is to start and second PHPBB3 board and copy those database tables into the old one, but first we have to be sure that everything will convert correctly.
like i said, it looks more like PHPBB2 to me. :/
sadly i can't help with it, because i don't have the rights to access the mySQL Database system.
So actually it is all up to the SQL admins.if we still have the same problems, we might have to contact one of the PHPBB community admins for help about this converting situation.

It appears that problems relating to registering have arisen again, even if you clear your cookies. For this reason, I'm opening forum@drdteam.org for issues relating to registering. I am, however, more focused on trying to launch phpBB3, because as soon as it's in use the problem should go away.

After a little more research, I was wrong about Internet Explorer 7 working on this site.

It's actually cookies that are the problem.

In order to register, you need to delete all your cookies. You may have to leave them enabled, though... just deleted.

EDIT: Unstickied this topic since a news topic contains more relevant information.

I'm gonna sticky this post for informational purposes. I think it also needs to be referenced on the front page news.

[spoiler][s][color=darkblue]After researching this problem, it appears that Internet Explorer 7 browsers are able to complete registration. However, in order to use Internet Exploder on this site, HTTP/1.1 must be enabled. HTTP/1.0 is permenantly blocked due to spambots and hackbots.

EDIT: An additional note, you may switch back to your favorite browser after registration. Firefox and Opera works fine everywhere else on the site, and is therefore highly recommended.[/color][/s]

[quote="Microsoft"]To verify that Internet Explorer is configured to use the HTTP 1.1 protocol:
1. Open the [b]Internet Options[/b] property sheet
* If using IE 4, this is located under the View menu
* If using IE 5, this is located under the Tools menu
2. Select the [b]Advanced[/b] tab
3. Under [b]HTTP 1.1 settings[/b], verify that [b]Use HTTP 1.1[/b] is selected (see Figure 1 below).
