Does the tool merge users on the fly when doing the merge if the users have the same email address and possible user id on the source and destination DBs?

My testing has not produced expected results in the sense that:

Forum1 - User ID "Swiftie", email address "Swiftie@domain.com" post count of about 600

Forum2 - User ID "Swiftie", email address "Swiftie@domain.com" post count of about 900

So we will be merging Forum1 into Forum2

From checking the conversion error log, it reports that Swiftie as member already exhists it will create a new member with user name Swiftie123456 for example. But this user can't be found later once all the the other imports have been completed so that a merge of members can take place manually via the ACP.

Which file did you edit to comment out the below?

ipsRegistry::DB('hb')->build(array('select' => '*', 'from' => 'forum_tracker', 'where' => "forum_id={$row['id']}"));
   ipsRegistry::DB('hb')->execute();
   while ($tracker = ipsRegistry::DB('hb')->fetch())
   {
	$this->lib->convertForumSubscription($tracker['frid'], $tracker);
   }


ipsRegistry::DB('hb')->build(array('select' => '*', 'from' => 'tracker', 'where' => "topic_id={$row['tid']}"));
   ipsRegistry::DB('hb')->execute();
   while ($tracker = ipsRegistry::DB('hb')->fetch())
   {
	$this->lib->convertTopicSubscription($tracker['trid'], $tracker);
   }

I have a similar question which fits into this.

Trying to do a IPB to IPB using the converter and both boards are on 3.2.3 but when I get to the "Categories & Forums" section its failing like Adam's issue.

I've noted the below error in the cache folder.

There isn't a table called ibf_forum_tracker unfortunately. Could this be the main cause?

I had same issue but I just took it as "an upgrade must be occuring" as the 404 was a cpanel one. So went about my other business and now it looks like its all fine.
