Myself and others have been having issues with what I assume is a cookie sync / cache issue between Coppermine and PHPBB. During multiple upload sessions, the users have been presented (seemingly randomly) with the message "Error - You do not have permission to access this page". This usually occurs after uploads are complete, during the time when users have been tagging and describing files. When we look above this error message, the Login key is showing, meaning coppermine does not think that the user is logged into PHPBB. However, when visiting the forum, the user is logged in, and has proper access to all features. If, after a few moments, the user refreshes a coppermine page, then coppermine will "wake up" and see the user was already logged in. However, the process the user was completing when the error message appeared (usually tagging and describing the uploads) has failed, and needs to be redone.
A similar problem occurs when clearing cookies (or using incognito mode) and logging in as administrator. If I log in and immediately click Config, I get the same error message. On the page where the error message occurs, I can refresh, and everything is cool.
We also have another issue. After bridging coppermine and PHPBB, I see no way to log in as the coppermine admin (for instance to globally change the form token lifetime). When I log out, and try to log in,
I am redirected to the PHPBB login page. When logging in as administrator for the PHPBB forum, I cannot globally change these parameters and see them stick for users.
