Bridging problem with phpBB 3
« on: April 17, 2011, 05:24:06 pm »

I just installed phpBB 3.0.8 ( http://littleblueumbrella.com/forum/ )
I also just installed Coppermine Photo Gallery v1.5.12 ( http://littleblueumbrella.com/gallery/ )

On my phpBB I have the following cookie settings:

cookie domain: littleblueumbrella.com
Cookie name: phpbb3_qkcy3
Cookie path: /
Cookie secure: disabled

I'm using bridge with phpBB version 3

URL of Bridge App: http://littleblueumbrella.com/forum
Relative Path to your bridge app's config file: ../forum/
Cookie prefix: phpbb3_qkcy3

Please note:  I was reading documentation and here it states that I must have a forward slash at the end of the URL of Bridge app but when I put it there, it does not let me go further and makes me remove it.

Cookie prefix: phpbb3_qkcy3
URL of the bridge app: http://littleblueumbrella.com/forum
Relative path to your bridge app's config file: ../forum/
Use bridge app custom groups?:    1

When I enable it, it works if I log into everything through the forum.  But it will not redirect at all and I get this if I click on login or logout in Coppermine:

Quote
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /forum/ucp.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/2.2.17 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.17 OpenSSL/0.9.8r DAV/2 mod_fcgid/2.3.5 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at littleblueumbrella.com Port 80

And this is in my browser bar:
http://littleblueumbrella.com/forum/ucp.php?mode=login&redirect=http%3A%2F%2Flittleblueumbrella.com%2Fgallery%2F

I've tried to do this ten different ways, none work.  I've also tried phpBB version 2.0.18 or higher with both the phpbb3_qkcy3 cookie settings and the phpbb2_msql ones.

I've also edited the phpbb file ucp.php per nibbler's post here:
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,53678.0.html

I'm kind of at my wits end.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I feel like I must be missing something very obvious. 

If you need a test account, I have one here:
login: test
pass: testing

Thank you!

The encoded colon causes the 403 error message:
Quote
http://littleblueumbrella.com/forum/ucp.php?mode=login&redirect=http%3A%2F%2Flittleblueumbrella.com%2Fgallery%2F

If you manually remove that part from the url the login page appears as expected. It seems that you have to edit something in the ucp.php file of the board. Unfortunately I cannot give you more detailed instructions, as I don't know that file.

Unfortunately, I'm not a coder.  But I'll check it out anyway.  Just don't want to blow it up.  I honestly thought that this post by nibbler addressed this issue.  But when I changed the code it doesn't change anything.

I don't know which post you mean, as you always refer to the whole topic. I assume it's the initial post. Did you changed anything in your ucp.php file? If so, undo those changes.

this is the part I was referring to:

If you want to enable logout redirection it seems you need to hack phpbb to support this. This step is optional.

edit the phpbb file ucp.php

find:

Code: [Select]
meta_refresh(3, append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}index.$phpEx"));

$message = $message . '<br /><br />' . sprintf($user->lang['RETURN_INDEX'], '<a href="' . append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}index.$phpEx") . '">', '</a> ');

   
     
change to :

Code: [Select]
meta_refresh(3, request_var('redirect', append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}index.$phpEx")));

$message = $message . '<br /><br />' . sprintf($user->lang['RETURN_INDEX'], '<a href="' . request_var('redirect', append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}index.$phpEx")) . '">', '</a> ');


That tells phpbb to look for the redirect parameter being passed in the url.

And I just changed it back.  And nothing seems to have changed.

It's called

logout redirection
so you cannot expect any change while logging in.

You have to find out why the ucp.php file returns a HTTP 403 error. Please ask the phpBB team for support.

Okay.  Will go check that out then. Thanks.  If I find an answer, I'll post here and let you all know since this issue seems to be occurring to others as well.

It isn't a problem with the phpBB file.  It is a problem with the host, Host Gator.  Please see this post here:
http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=2127416&p=12986785#p12986785

I will post another topic asking for help with modifying the bridge, thank you!
