I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and vBulletin v3.64:
No error message. When I bridge the two and login, it pushes me to vbulletin to login (is that right? If so, that is confusing to me as a user) but I am already logged in.

Coppermine install: http://www.actionfigs.com/photo
Forum install: http://forums.actionfigs.com/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.10
Forum version: vBulletin 3.64
Test user account: test / user

BridgeManager settings:
Forum URL: http://forums.actionfigs.com
Relative path to your BBS's config file: ../forums/
Use post-based groups?: 0
Cookie name/preifx (if applicable)

Thanks.

The bridge needs to be enabled for us to test your issue.

SteveSteve · « **Reply #2 on:** February 18, 2007, 02:00:57 am »

It's enabled now. Thanks.

The test account does not work.

SteveSteve · « **Reply #4 on:** February 18, 2007, 02:18:59 am »

With bridge enabled, no, it does not... that's the problem.... no accounts work with bridge is enabled.

Nibbler · « **Reply #5 on:** February 18, 2007, 02:27:20 am »

That is not a problem, it is the whole point of bridging. Coppermine uses the accounts in your forum when bridged, therefore the test account must be registered in your forum.

SteveSteve · « **Reply #6 on:** February 18, 2007, 02:33:31 am »

Ok, I've made an account in forums and enabled bridge again for you.

Nibbler · « **Reply #7 on:** February 18, 2007, 02:44:08 am »

You need to set your forum's cookie domain to .actionfigs.com

SteveSteve · « **Reply #8 on:** February 18, 2007, 02:51:43 am »

Ok, done that and I get the same thing.

Nibbler · « **Reply #9 on:** February 18, 2007, 02:58:12 am »

Works for me. Make sure you cleared your cookies.

SteveSteve · « **Reply #10 on:** February 18, 2007, 03:04:01 am »

Ok... so is the functionality supposed to kick you to the forums to login? If so, the usability aspect of that is bad. PhotoPost allows me to login from their software and that's what I was expecting.

Nibbler · « **Reply #11 on:** February 18, 2007, 03:11:22 am »

That is the intended behaviour. If you know how to improve this let me know.

SteveSteve · « **Reply #12 on:** February 18, 2007, 03:19:46 am »

Have you looked at how PhotoPost does it? I am not a programmer or I would be happy to help.

Nibbler · « **Reply #13 on:** February 18, 2007, 03:34:46 am »

PhotoPost is proprietary software.

SteveSteve · « **Reply #14 on:** February 18, 2007, 03:40:05 am »

Right, but seeing the way they handle the login could help. I am not saying copy it, just see how they do it and then make it work in CPG.

Nibbler · « **Reply #15 on:** February 18, 2007, 04:17:58 am »

OK then, send me $130 for a PhotoPost license and I'll see what I can do.

SteveSteve · « **Reply #16 on:** March 10, 2007, 07:14:54 am »

I am still having this problem... any suggestions?

SteveSteve · « **Reply #17 on:** March 10, 2007, 05:22:30 pm »

(the problem of not being able to login)

Nibbler · « **Reply #18 on:** March 10, 2007, 05:44:28 pm »

Test account works fine.

SteveSteve · « **Reply #19 on:** March 10, 2007, 06:21:17 pm »

hmm.... I was able to login, then I stepped away from it for about a week then nothing. Perhaps the cookie is getting corrupted? I'll clear it again...
