Well i followed all the steps in the book...
But this doesnt work...
Whenever i go to the cpg page, it doesnt automatically logsin! And when i click login, it redirects me to the vblogin page!

My forum is located at: http://www.domain.com/
CPG: http://www.domain.com/cpg/

My vbulletin30.inc.php files looks like this:
//NOTE : Your vBulletin license number is provided at the top of every php file in your vBulletin installation!
define('VB_CUST_NO', 'Lxxxxxxx'); // Your vBulletin license number (NOT your customer number)
define('VB_DB_NAME', 'indiangu_xxxxxforum'); // The name of the database used by the board
define('VB_BD_HOST', 'localhost'); // The name of the database server
define('VB_DB_USERNAME', 'indiangu_xxxxx'); // The username to use to connect to the database
define('VB_DB_PASSWORD', 'xxxxxxxx'); // The password to use to connect to the database

// The web path to your vBulletin Board directory
// In this example http://yoursite_name.com/vbulletin3/
define('VB_WEB_PATH', '/');

Note: The database i used for cpg and vb are the same as specified in the instructions!
In the init.inc.php file, i have removed the double slashes from
define('UDB_INTEGRATION', 'vbulletin30');

Now, can anyone help here?

Following is the cookie file i extracted from my pc:
Name is: Cookie:jay@www.domain     and  Internet Address is: Cookie:jay@www.domain.com/
'Jay' is local username on my pc!

Also note that, before integrating, i had installed CPG as standalone and it was working smooth with proper login processing!
After this, i tried the integration steps as specified! And since then, i cant login in CPG!
Hope anyone comes out with a concrete solution to this problem!

NOTE: 'Domain' corresponds to my personal site!

Thanks,

Ok here is the concrete solution i got after much twisting and tweaking!

If you followed all the book rules and still failed to get automatically logged in Coppermine via VB3, then just make this one more change to your Bridge file:

// ------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
// Nothing to edit below this line
// ------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
// Prefix and names for the database tables
define('VB_TABLE_PREFIX', ''); // Leave empty, not supported by vBulletin 2.3
define('VB_USER_TABLE', 'user'); // The members table
define('VB_SESSION_TABLE', 'session'); // The sessions table
define('VB_GROUP_TABLE', 'usergroup'); // The groups table
define('VB_COOKIE_PREFIX', 'bb');  // Cookie Prefix, not supported by vBulletin 2

Please, enter the cookie prefix, as 'bb' and CPG works like a smooth gel with your forums!
This is tried and tested!

Hope this helps everyone!

The forum search sucks!
In most cases, the problem is in front of the keyboard, not inside the computer. The search on this board is very powerfull, better than most searches on other bbs apps. Maybe you just didn't come up with the proper search terms. Blaming others for your own failure shows your character.

You have no rights here at all, except to never come back to this site if you're not happy with it. If you need help or encouragement to never get back here, you can get banned in no time if you keep displaying such a strange attitude. Consider yourself warned.
Maybe you haven't figured out what this is all about: coppermine is free software (released under GNU GPL) - nobody from the dev team earns one cent by working on it. The software is being developed and this support board is being run by unpaid volunteers in their spare time. This is not software you have paid for, and you don't pay for support (but I doubt that you'd get a different answer over at Microsoft). It's our choice if we want to help you. The supporters here deserve respect. Review your attitude or never come back.
