Convert Legacy Code to BB-Code

New user running VW 3.0.2.

I just imported my prior Mediawiki content. I'm now trying to convert the articles (about 500) via:
Wiki Maintenance Tools -> Convert Legacy Code to BB-Code.

However, after clicking on the Convert Articles button, only the first article starts processing. I just get a white screen showing "Processing: 3187333" and the script seems to hang there.

Any suggestions?

Thanks. -- Rik

Please first see this report: http://www.vaultwiki.org/issues/1877/

If that doesn't work, do you have any errors in your log files?

Try visiting yoursite/showthread.php?p=3187333, save the raw contents of the article in a text file and attach them to your post here.

Attached is the raw text of the first post indicated above.

I'm not sure which log file in which you might be interested. Is there a wiki.log?

Regards. -- Rik

So the fix in the report didn't seem to work for you?

Sorry, yes, the fix has worked (I made a mistake) and the articles are now processed. The only problem remaining regarding this issue is that the codes linking to images or templates are not working so look like this on the displayed pages:

{{City_Large|location=San Antonio, Texas}}

300px|thumb

You created a Template namespace in VaultWiki BEFORE converting right?

I guess I missed that step. So I started over from a new install while creating the Template namespace this time around and re-importing from Mediawiki plus, rebuild all of the namespaces, and Convert Legacy Code to BB-Code.

Here is what I'm getting now:

Template:city_large
300px|thumb

So its recognizing the template but not displaying it yet. Also, no images are being displayed (I do have the Image namespace). So I'm making progress. Could I be missing something else?

Thanks again. -- Rik

There is a problem where if there are too many spaces in the source where you include the template, the template will be rendered as a link. To fix, edit vault/class/bbcode.php. Find:

Code:

---

                        $args = $this->strip_front_back_whitespace(substr($text, $parampos + 1, strlen($text) - $parampos - 1), 1);
                }

                $vault->fetch_instance('string');
                $templatename = $this->strip_front_back_whitespace($vault->string->substr($text, 0, $parampos), 1);
                $templatelow = $vault->string->tolower($templatename);

---

Replace with:

Code:

---

                        $args = trim($this->strip_front_back_whitespace(substr($text, $parampos + 1, strlen($text) - $parampos - 1), 10));
                }

                $vault->fetch_instance('string');
                $vault->fetch_instance('encode');

                $templatename = $this->strip_front_back_whitespace($vault->string->substr($text, 0, $parampos), 10);
                $templatelow = $vault->string->tolower($vault->encode->encode($templatename, TEMPLATE_SPACE));

---

In vault/class/bbcode/template.php, find:

Code:

---

                                $vault->url->affix_prefix($fetch);

                                $fetch['title'] = $vault->string->tolower($fetch['title']);

---

Replace with:

Code:

---

                                $vault->fetch_instance('encode');

                                $vault->url->affix_prefix($fetch);

                                $fetch['title'] = $vault->string->tolower($vault->encode->encode($fetch['title'], TEMPLATE_SPACE));

For the images that aren't being displayed. Take, for example the San_Antonio image mentioned above. What was the original MediaWiki syntax that was used to insert this image?
