It sounds like basedir restrictions - try copying your Y1 Gold data into a subdirectory of your yabbse folder, the converting out of that.

The reason is that if you are running

/myserver/cgi-bin/yabb/

but are trying to run converter.php at

/myserver/yse/converter.php

because converter.php is in a different basedir, it may not have permission to access the yabb data.  So if you copied your data into

/myserver/yse/tempYaBBdata/

then ran
/myserver/yse/converter.php

it may work better.

Wait...
And if I execute the "converter.php" from /myserver/cgi-bin/yabb/?

Like this: /myserver/cgi-bin/yabb/converter.php

I made as you said but still the same problem:

Warning: file("/home/www/forum/tempyabb/cgi-bin/yabb/Variables/agreement.txt") - Permission denied in /home/www/forum/converter.php on line 244

....

Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/www/forum/converter.php on line 260
Error editing table (settings). Unable to set agreement=

P.S.
I set permission on converter.php agreement.txt - 755

Try chmodding agreement.txt to 777

changing the permission on converter.php shouldn't make much difference - it just needs to be executable, not writable.

If one does this, does one need to change the paths and info in the Yabb (cgi one) files to reflect the new location of them, which are no longer in the cgi-bin but the Yabb SE directory) in order for the conversion process to proceed successfully?
