Yes, it is extraordinary that the Converter does not work even if you skip almost all the tables database on the newly installed empty SMF 2.0.15 or 2.0.17. But what should I do?  :)
So I can't migrate from SMF to ElkArte.

Based on my readings, somewhere 8 months ago, OI works in importing data from a "fully functioning" (not newly installed) SMF 2.0.17 to EA 1.1.6.

This is easy to check. Install an empty SMF and try to convert it to Elkarte 1.1.6.
If you do this successfully, it means that the problem is not in the converter.

I can convert it ok from SMF 2.0.17 to Elkarte 1.1.6 with no issues. Just taken the latest download of each today. Also the master branch of the openimporter and it works without error.

MySQL version: 10.1.45-0+deb9u1
PHP: 7.4.10 (apache2handler)

Please give detailed instructions on how you converted and a link to the working converter.

Do you install databases SMF and Elkarte with prefixes in common database?

Extract OpenImporter in the Elkarte directory? Or in a separate folder?

Extract OpenImporter in the Elkarte directory?

Where Elkarte was extracted to, although I just tested and that doesn’t really matter just a web accessible location works on the same server as the other two installs.

It remains only to ask you to attach the working converter here))
Otherwise, I do not know why I do the same, but the converter can't find any fields in the tables.

By the way, I observe this effect: the converter resets at 0 the SMF database even if it stops in error. You have to restore the database after each error.

I’ve given the link above.

Run through it and follow the instructions, pay attention to the to and from fields and make sure you have them the correct way round.

And then I said to myself: Get killed and not get up!))
In the converter, you had to specify the path not the root directory, but the folder elkarte:
Path to destination:  .../elkarte/

Finish!
