I've had some thoughts on what may be occurring...

I think there's an issue with array sizes.

I've noticed that some/most of the db conversion code uses tokenized values instead of hard-coded ones.

And, I know those values have changed since he implemented the de-blob code...

Keep an eye out for a future update involving the de-blob process.


I think Akkadius did a pretty good job with the de-blob process..though, I'm not sure if it will catch 100% of the old databases - still, should be pretty high.


EDIT:

I just did a cursory review of the original code and I won't be able to do anything with this in the near future.

It involves more than just array sizes...

Most of the object references have changed in no small degree and it is going to require a complete extraction of those objects and appropriate values from
the original code and then implement it in the current code.

Unfortunately, I don't have any backups containing the old pp and epp blob schemas..so, I wouldn't even be able to test any changes.
