Refer to the integration section in the documentation, the methodology thread is only "dev talk".

$path = '../smf';

How should my path look if I use
www.aducrejr.com/forum SMF
www.aducrejr.com/gallery Coppermine

You don't have to change anything in the smf bridge file. You can change $path="../forum", but the bridge file looks thru several possible locations of the smf forum

Code: [Select]

$possible_paths = array($path, '..', '../forum', '../forums',
'../community', '../yabbse', '../smf');

It will find your smf location.

when I changed the // define('UDB_INTEGRATION', 'smf');
by removing the //
I am not able to see www.aducrejr.com/gallery the page shows blank

Is there a step that I am missing?

kegobeer · « **Reply #5 on:** December 28, 2004, 11:19:38 pm »

I don't know. Did you follow the integration instructions in the documentation?

aducrejr · « **Reply #6 on:** December 28, 2004, 11:32:36 pm »

The documentation doesn't give any specifics for SMF

1. I went to the bridge directory and changed smf.inc.php
// Set this to the location of your Settings file:
$path = '../forum';

2. include/init.inc.php

Changed the define settings to:
define('UDB_INTEGRATION', 'smf');

Seems like I am missing something, because when I change step 2. I can't load gallery in browser but I can login/out of SMF

Post a test user login/pass so we can take a look. Also, what version of php are you running?

aducrejr · « **Reply #8 on:** December 28, 2004, 11:48:25 pm »

for gallery and SMF
www.aducrejr.com/gallery
www.aducrejr.com/forum

user: test
Paswword: password

PHP Version 4.3.6

thanks for your interest in helping

Do you have Coppermine and SMF sharing the same database?

aducrejr · « **Reply #10 on:** December 29, 2004, 05:31:27 pm »

they are both on the same database I can login/out of SMF
But Coppermine shows a blank page when I goto it
www.aducrejr.com/gallery
www.aducrejr.com.forum

You probably have display_errors disabled in php.ini, which is not very helpful for debugging.

aducrejr · « **Reply #12 on:** December 30, 2004, 01:40:29 am »

how do I enable it?

CapriSkye · « **Reply #13 on:** December 30, 2004, 02:32:00 am »

in your php.ini search for display_errors and set it to ON

aducrejr · « **Reply #14 on:** December 30, 2004, 08:47:09 am »

I search my computer before posting this question

Where is the php.ini flie located

CapriSkye · « **Reply #15 on:** December 30, 2004, 12:36:19 pm »

it depends on your server setup, but you don't know where to find it probably means you're not self hosting, therefore you can't change it, you'll have to ask your server admin to do it for you.

aducrejr · « **Reply #16 on:** December 30, 2004, 04:16:57 pm »

Yahoo is my host so I don't know how much luck I going to have in them changing that file

Are the any other areas I can troubleshoot?

Again main problem SMF works fine whenI try to intergration. Gallery site becomes blank until I reverse
define('UDB_INTEGRATION', 'smf');

kegobeer · « **Reply #17 on:** December 30, 2004, 04:31:19 pm »

You might want to ask Yahoo if there's something they can do. It may be something they've configured to prevent including files from a different main directory.

Here is the response I recieved from Yahoo after asking for help. Does this seem like it is a valid workaround

Dear Yahoo! Customer,

Thank you for contacting us.

We're sorry, the feature you are mentioning is not currently available through Yahoo! Web Hosting and we do not have an estimated date as to when or if it will be available. However, we'll pass your comments on to our Development team for further consideration.

FYI, here is one workaround:

1). Create a 'includes' subdirectory under web site root directory

2). Create a common_header.inc file with the following code:

<?
ini_set('display_errors', "1");
error_reporting(E_PARSE);
?>

3). Add the following line to your PHP file:

include ("/includes/common_header.inc");

Please do not hesitate to reply if you need further assistance.

How do I change the display_errors to (on/enable) in the php.ini file

I am having problems integrating a forum in to a photo gallery and the developers of the photo gallery suggested that I change those properties

"in your php.ini search for display_errors and set it to ON"

http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=13016.0

Joachim Müller · « **Reply #19 on:** January 03, 2005, 09:42:26 am »

creating a separate dir/file that only enables the error reporting you need is overkill, just add

Code: [Select]

<?
ini_set('display_errors', "1");
error_reporting(E_PARSE);
?>

to coppermine's code.

Joachim
