Title: When requesting bridge support - mandatory!
Post by: Joachim Müller on November 24, 2005, 05:17:43 pm
When requesting bridge support, please post a link to your site, a test user account, and what you have set in the bridge manager.
Make sure that the test user account doesn't have admin privileges. When posting parts of your bridge file, make sure to replace passwords with asterisks.

This is how your posting should look like (with actual URLs instead of the dummy URLs I posted as an example):

Make sure you are using the latest versions of the bridging files, they are kept up to date between formal Coppermine releases. Download the relevent files from here (http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.cgi/coppermine/trunk/stable/bridge/). Update udb_base.inc.php and the file that corresponds to the bridge you are using and upload them into your bridge directory, overwriting the old ones.

[edit Abbas]
Updated the link from cvs to svn repository.

The link to the bridge files on cvs.southforge.net didn't work a while ago
It does now - strange  ???

Anyways - after searching through the whole forum - I was able to fix most of my problems

Thanks for a great product - it looks and works really good

Best,

Pat

The link does not work.  Please advise.

It doesn't go up and down, but only down: we have migrated from CVS to SVN - as a result, all deep links to Web CVS will fail. Either browse the Web SVN as suggested on the project page (http://sourceforge.net/svn/?group_id=89658) or get the most recent coppermine package from the downloads section (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=89658). CPG1.4.6 contains the most up-to-date bridge files (as of today, don't sue me if this piece of information will become inacurate later). As a courtesy, here's the link to the stable branch of the SVN as well (but don't complain if it goes down later): http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.cgi/coppermine/trunk/stable/bridge/

is there a guide for bridging? and what's bridging for? ???
I want to try bridging...

Yes, there is such a guide: it's part of the documentation that comes with Coppermine. It's mandatory that you read the documentation before asking questions (particularly when replying to a sticky FAQ-thread) - you agreed to do so when signing up.
A link to the documentation can be found at the top of this page.

Split unrelated reply (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=36937.0). Why do there always have to be morons who keep on cluttering the sticky threads with their individual support requests, although the sticky threads themselves tell them they mustn't?
Do not reply to this thread with individual support requests or similar - this is an announcement thread! Start your own thread instead (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?action=post;board=50.0).
Do you jerks don't even bother to read what you're replying to? I hate it when this it keeps on happening - you render all sticky threads useless, so we have to lock down all of them one by one, disabling legitimate use of those threads.
So I'll have to lock this thread as well *sigh*. Yeah, I already know the lame answer: "sorry, I'm a newbie" / "why do you treat me so rudely?". What a poor excuse: being a newbie does not mean that you have permission to disrespect board rules and common sense - you have explicitely been told that you mustn't reply to this thread. Yet you still did. Doing so shows that you're not respecting the time and effort supporters spend to provide free support. It's selfish and rude. We gain nothing if you use Coppermine, so we can at least expect that you play by the rules set up for the benefit of the community.
Sorry for the rant, but I just had to...
