Hi,
I've installed cpg 1.3 from fantastico cpanel.
I followed all Bridge/Integration documentation.

my files are as follows:

init.inc.php

Code: [Select]

define('COPPERMINE_VERSION', '1.3.2');

// User database integration

// Uncomment the applicable line if you want to use it

define('UDB_INTEGRATION', 'phpbb');

// define('UDB_INTEGRATION', 'woltlab21');

// define('UDB_INTEGRATION', 'punbb');

if (!defined('IN_COPPERMINE')) die('Not in Coppermine...');

phpbb.inc.php

Code: [Select]

// database configuration

define('PHPBB_DB_NAME', 'cookiman_phpb1'); // The name of the database used by the board

define('PHPBB_BD_HOST', 'localhost'); // The name of the database server

define('PHPBB_DB_USERNAME', 'cookiman_phpb1'); // The username to use to connect to the database

define('PHPBB_DB_PASSWORD', '*********'); // The password to use to connect to the database



// The web path to your phpBB directory

// If your URL to your board is for example 'http://yoursite_name.com/phpBB2/',

// you'll have to set the below var to '/phpBB2/'.

define('PHPBB_WEB_PATH', '/forums/')
cpg_redir.php

Code: [Select]

<?php
if (!$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']) {
  $cpg_host=$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_HOST'];
} else {
  $cpg_host=$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
}
$cpg_path='/gallery';
header("Location: http://".$cpg_host.$cpg_path);
exit;
?>

I select login from cpg and it directs to forum login then it directs to forum index.
Here I am concerned! It doesen't show that I logged into the forum or the gallery.
at this point im concerned that my forum users won't be logged into the forum correctly.

Note*
I am using an existing forum administrator user name and password to try to login.
I also tried it with the cpg admin admin that I set up when installing.
I tried clearing cookies
I tried login in to the forum and then going to cpg (still not logging in)

can you look things over I really like cpgs look and the fact that it can be bridged with my existing forum. I had complaints about not being able to use the same username and pass on my previous gallery powered by gallery. 

Thanks

Can you post a test user account ?

It looks like your board isn't setting cookies properly, make sure you set a valid cookie domain in phpbb config.

Nibbler asked you to post a test user account.  Why did you quote your original post?

[kegobeer]

Just by looking at the links you posted I can tell you your problem may be caused because you have one cookie being set on www.texashotboats.com and another being set on texashotboats.com.  You need to decide: either use www. for both of your sites, or don't use it at all.

I'm guessing you have your "Target address for the 'See more pictures' link in e-cards" set to http://texashotboats.com/gallery/.  Try changing it to http://www.texashotboats.com/gallery/

Make sure you delete all cookies for your domain (www and no www), close your browser, then try again.

sorry qoute needed to me more specific.
I changed the paragraph that stated the direct to after login


I will change the cookie as the above reply states to texashotboats.com instead of the www.

Yes check it out please.

and thanks

[Wingman]

How would I do that without being able to login to change config cookie?

[Nibbler]

You need to to change the phpbb's cookie domain. Bridging won't affect your ability to login to phpbb.

It seems to be set to http://www.texashotboats.com/forums

it should be just texashotboats.com

[Wingman]

Thanks that worked!

I checked to see if I was logged into the forums as well and I was.
Also I checked to see if I could use another registered user from forums and it worked.

I have a question
If I logg out of one or the other will it log me out of the other?

And do I need to do anything else or am I good to go?

[Nibbler]

Yes, clicking logout in coppermine will log you out of your forum. Your bridging now seems to be working perfectly.

[Wingman]

Thanks a lot!

I can't wait for 1.4 and the bridge wizzard.

good luck with the merger gallery seems a bit complicated.

note*
It seems the bridge documentation is very clear.  I recomend  being more specific in (elementary) terms about the cookies and paths.
