I click on where it says "vbulletin 3.0" when i'm setting it up. When i hit enable, this comes up

Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to UDB database !

MySQL said:

These are the settings...

Forum URL:      http://www.titanshentai.com/forum
Relative path to your BBS's config file:    ../forum/
Use post-based groups?:    0


I had to go through the database itself and turn it off.
Help?

The vb 3.0 bridge file is not guaranteed to work with vb 3.5. Try specifying your database information manually in the bridge file:

Code: [Select]

// Database connection settings
$this->db = array(
'name' => $dbname,
'host' => $servername ? $servername : 'localhost',
'user' => $dbusername,
'password' => $dbpassword,
'prefix' =>$tableprefix
);


[daklay]

Is there going to be a plugin to do that?

[Joachim Müller]

who knows? VB is not freeware, so it's hard for the coppermine devs to stay up-to-date with vb releases. We have to rely on people from the vb community to help us out. We've asked the vb people for a free copy in the past, just for being able to develop bridges, not for actually using the vb bbs live. However, they refused to do this. Might be a good idea to turn up on the vb support board and nag *hint*  .

[daklay]

Well, you can tell me what files you guys want from 3.5.0 and i can send them to you

[Joachim Müller]

no, you can't. The VB license doesn't allow you to give those files away, and we won't use illegal methods to accomplish this. We're open source developers, not pirates - we respect copyrights.

[daklay]

Well, i'll talk to them about it

The new Vbulletin bridge does not work with vB3.5(1). I don't think it will even work with vB3!

I have made some changes to make it work. The following notes might help the future developement of the vB bridge.

1) To verify an user through vB cookies.
You need:
$db_pass = md5($db_pass . COOKIE_SALT);
//$db_pass is the password string from user table

then

 if ($db_pass === $_COOKIE['bbpassword'])

COOKIE_SALT is the vB license number. The 'Bridge wizard' might need to include an input to store the lincence number into bridge table.

2) DB variables in the config.php has changed. For vB3.5, they are:

$config['Database']['dbtype'] = 'mysql';

        //      ****** DATABASE NAME ******
        //      This is the name of the database where your vBulletin will be located.
        //      This must be created by your webhost.
$config['Database']['dbname'] = 'vbulletin';

        //      ****** TABLE PREFIX ******
        //      Prefix that your vBulletin tables have in the database.
$config['Database']['tableprefix'] = '';

        //      ****** TECHNICAL EMAIL ADDRESS ******
        //      If any database errors occur, they will be emailed to the address specified here.
        //      Leave this blank to not send any emails when there is a database error.
$config['Database']['technicalemail'] = 'webmaster@mysite';



        //      ****** MASTER DATABASE SERVER NAME ******
        //      This is the hostname or IP address of the database server.
        //      It is in the format HOST:PORT. If no PORT is specified, 3306 is used.
        //      If you are unsure of what to put here, leave it at the default value.
$config['MasterServer']['servername'] = 'localhost';

        //      ****** MASTER DATABASE USERNAME & PASSWORD ******
        //      This is the username and password you use to access MySQL.
        //      These must be obtained through your webhost.
$config['MasterServer']['username'] = 'dbuser';
$config['MasterServer']['password'] = 'dbpassword';

$config['Misc']['cookieprefix'] = 'bb';

So $this->db array needs to reflect this change.

3)
 function load_user_data($row)
is broken with vB bridge.
To get it working quickly, one may need to change:

$this->multigroups = 1; to $this->multigroups = 0;
and turn off "use_post_based_groups".

Sorry, I can not contribute the full vB3.5 bridge. I made changes everywhere including udb_base.inc.php. If anything I will wait until next release when 'udb_base.inc.php' is more mature.

Where to you apply these edits??

Here is vb 3.5.0 -> CM 1.4.2 Bridge
Replace content of bridge/vbulletin30.inc.php with this code:
