phpbb3 admins are not recognized as admins in Coppermine
« on: November 19, 2010, 04:05:29 am »

Hello,

I have tried to look for an answer but couldn't find one, perhaps someone here could help me.
phpbb - 3.0.7 fresh install
Coppermine - 1.5.8 fresh install
This is on my localhost for testing, so I cannot provide a test user.

I have bridged Coppermine to phpbb3 (Use bridge app custom groups = yes). All seem to work fine, except for one thing: phpbb3 main admins do not have admin privileges in Coppermine.
I know that the phpbb3 admins are in ADMINISTRATORS group in Coppermine, since I changed the settings and saw how they changed for them.

However, it looks as ADMINISTRATORS group is not recognized as Coppermine admin group.

Please advise.

Thanks :)

What's the primary group of your admin users? Afaik it should only work if their primary group is the admin group.

Thank!
You are right, that was the issue. Being part of the "main admin" group is not enough. The user should have main admins group as his default group for being a Coppermine admin.

Is there another way to set Coppermine admins when bridging is enabled?
