can anyone tell me step by step procedure what should i do
to move from sphinx to TP


IchBin

Never heard of sphinx. You have a link to the site for that software? While it may be possible to move to TP, we don't have any conversion scripts that will move your stuff for you. Everything in your site that you want moved over, will need to be moved manually unless you know how to write a script to do it for you.

My quick tutorial, but I aint no expert like Ich and the rest

1.  Uninstall Sphinx, usually go to the admin panel and uninstall
2.  Download TP
3.  Install TP, if lots of mods installed then either manual install or follow the install tutorials

Good Luck

on the way ..
please do not lock this thread please
( im working on it )

Not Solved :(( it mess :((
so i delete the directory
then i do clean install
then change the setting.php to connect to old db ( that was used by sphinx )
the result is ..
web running normal
but ...
i have hude DB table

my personal opinion

which doesn't matter much is...

ask SPHINX how to uninstall their software then come back here and get results....but no one here is capable of handling an alternative CMS without previous knowledge

No offense, but I am interested in a bunch of CMS seeing the ins and outs but most here have no experience in uninstalling those CMS let alone using them, but if you get support on leaving their CMS that would be most successful for the transition due to the wide variety of software becoming compatible with SMF, it definitelty has become exhausting to the TinyPortal team
