Well I can not answer that first question.
I do not own any 5e modules for fantasy grounds.
As to how did I convert them?
I loaded the module temple of elemental evil.
I opened each encounter, one at a time, I used the auto load feature of each encounter to see the placement of the monsters.
Then I deleted the 2e monsters from the encounter and pulled the equivalent 5E replacement monster and placed the new monster in the same placements as where the original 2e placed them then closed the encounter.
As i did this it did populate the combat tracker each time with the 2e monster. So I had to clear the combat tracker also each time I modified each and every encounter.
All of this had been working over the last 9 months we have been playing just fine until yesterday when the most recent patch broke our game.Last edited by hammer58; March 3rd, 2021 at 17:51.

Please provide the whole GM logs when this issue occurs. Type /console in the chat window to open the console, then click "Compile Logs". Post the resulting ZIP file here.
And, when exactly does the message appear in chat? Are you drag/dropping a roll (attack? damage?) or are you using the combat tracker targeting?Private Messages: My inbox is forever filling up with PMs. Please don't send me PMs unless they are actually private/personal messages.

I do not have the time to do that zip file right now. I will get back to that in a few hours.
I tried every method to target and none worked. I tried dropping the attack role on a player token and that would get the error message. I tried to target the player token using the target function inside the combat tracker and you have to drag the target icon from the combat tracker over the player token and drop it on the token and again the same error message popped up. I tried control left click on the player token and the line would draw on the screen to the target and give me range to target which was accurate by the way as our scale is 3.3 feet to a square, but again the error message would pop up in the chat window.
The zip file will be a while.

Sounds like the player tokens on the map have lost their association with the combat tracker. However, this would result in the message for any attack, not just the encounters you'd edited - I think that might just be a red herring.
Remove any PC tokens that have this issue from the map and then re-add them by drag/dropping from the combat tracker. Unfortunately this will reset the LoS for those tokens, but it should recreate the link from the token to the combat tracker and fix the issue.Private Messages: My inbox is forever filling up with PMs. Please don't send me PMs unless they are actually private/personal messages.

That was what I thought so I tried that and it did not work. Also it does not explain why when I deleted the monsters from the pre loaded encounter and replaced them with identical monsters from the 5e monster manual then those new monsters could target the player tokens. I did not do anything to the player tokens just replaced the monster tokens and it fixed the issue. We thought maybe we fixed the issue went to the next encounter and same thing happened. That time all I did was to delete the monsters and replace them with new ones and it worked. Then the next encounter it happened again. Then I stopped doing all that work and just rolled manually and manually tallied up damage. We played out the rest of the night that way using the map function only from fantasy grounds. 12 encounters all failed.
In essence Fantasy grounds just became a movable map holder for our game and we went to old style pen and paper for everything else.
