I have spent pretty much all day surfing the internet with my problem integrating coppermine and phpBB3.  I am using phpbb3.inc.php program.  Everything loaded just fine. I have read the thread at the "[cpg1.4.x]: PHPBB3 bridge".
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,53678.msg261200.html#msg261200
I am using the same admin username and password on both coppermine and phpBB3.  I have Administrators as my default group in phpBB3 for my admin user.

I have the following issue after the bridge between coppermine and phpBB3 is enabled:

I loose admin powers

Coppermine install: http://class.quiltcampus.net/gallery/
Bridging app install: http://class.quiltcampus.net/forum/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.21
Bridging app version: phpbb3.0.4

BridgeManager settings:
Bridge app URL:  <-  not sure what this is
Relative path to your bridge app's config file:  ../forum/
Use post-based groups?:  yes

If you need any more information, please let me know.

Thank you!

ah ... ok...I did not know it was the same at "Bridging app install:"  I thought "Bridge app URL:" was required when asking a question in this forum and I just did not know it was the same as "Bridging app install:".  I did not realize the madatory questions had changed since I componsed that email of my problem.  Here is the revised version.

----------------
I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and phpBB3:
I loose admin powers

Coppermine install: http://class.quiltcampus.net/gallery/
Forum install: http://class.quiltcampus.net/forum/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.21
Forum version: phpBB3.0.4
Test user account: tester11 / tester11

BridgeManager settings:
Forum URL:  http://class.quiltcampus.net/forum
Relative path to your BBS's config file:  ../forum/ 
Use post-based groups?:  yes
Cookie name/preifx: phpbb3_m5dec
--------------------


so ... do you have any idea why I lost admin powers when I enable the bridge?

You need to tell the bridge what the admin group is in your phpbb. Apparently this can differ. Edit phpbb3.inc.php here

Code: [Select]
$this->admingroups = array(5);

Change the 5 to the correct id. Judging by your forum it might be 304.

Your "who is online" block on your forum has a link to the administrators group (/forum/memberlist.php?mode=group&g=304) that shows the group id.
