Title: Unable to bridge from phpbb2
Post by: spanishsilver on December 20, 2005, 08:00:25 pm

I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and XXX:
[error message here]

Coppermine install: http://www.thecellarhole.com/coppermine/
Forum install: http://www.thecellarhole.com/phpbb2
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.2
Forum version: phpbb version 2.0.18
Test user account: test / abc123

BridgeManager settings:
Forum URL:  http://www.thecellarhole.com/phpbb2
Relative path to your BBS's config file:  ../phpbb2/ 
Use post-based groups?:  0 

I am unable to bridge from my forum and have tried everything setting up with the bridge wizard goes fine but when I try the test account to bridge from the forum it doesnt work. I cant even log into the photogallery when bridging is enabled. I recently moved coppermine from a different spot on my server could that have done it? test account is for my forum

The cookie names of your bbs and coppermine must not be the same - they must differ!

Changed cookie name in gallery to default cpg140 still the same thing happens. can the cpg database be a seperate database (which i do have) or do the tables have to be in the phpbb2 database for bridging to work?

Different databases are fine. You must have the bridge enabled for me to test with that account.

Bridge is enabled and I put the coppermine tables into the phpbb2 database just to see if it still happens and it still did. do you want me to also set up a username and password on the gallery or did you just want it on my forum so that way you could see if it was working. Thanks and bridging is enabled

Either be consistant with your use of www in the url or set your forum's cookie domain to .thecellarhole.com in config.

I fixed the problem. Stupid me. I selected phpbb 2.2 instead of phpbb 2.0.18 in the bridging wizard. I am sorry for wasting your time and mine  on such a dumb mistake. Thanks for all your help :)
