Can you reproduce this error consistently? Just try to export your forum again and let me know what happens. Thanks for reporting this issue.

I got an error too. But I tried again and it worked. It was quick too.

I'd been hesitating to try it because of the note about it taking up to 5 hours.

The whole thing took a few seconds.  Guess that's because we've only got a few hundred posts.
