phpbb2 Question

[thekujj]

Hi-
I just got the photo gallery and phpbb2 forum to integrate correctly for the admin, but all my other users from coppermine are having problems logging in now.  The redirect works fine, but I'm wondering if I did something wrong or if I need to do something extra?  If you need additional info, let me know.  Any help would be great.
Thanks!

Additional info please. I think you are expecting previous coppermine-registered users to now work with your integrated setup, which is not the case.

Yes, this is exactly the problem I'm experiencing.  It looks like the user Admin was in both the photo gallery and coppermine and it's working properly.  Do I need to add all the users from Coppermine into the photo gallery somehow?  I'm not sure I can tell you much more.  If you need to look at files, please let me know.
Thanks!

You'd need to convert all your coppermine users to phpbb users. You'd do this either manually or by modifying a dump of the coppermine users then importing the records into phpbb's user table. Then ensure the userid numbers are unchanged.

Is there a link that explains this fully?  I don't know exactly what to do just by what you told me.
Thanks

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!

Is there a link that explains this fully?

no, some understanding about your database structure is required to perform this, not recommended for newbies.
