Problems with bridging xoops to coppermine

[mwalko]

First of all let me say how wonderful I believe coopermine really is! And Thank you for all your hard work creating it!

Now I have my host at bluehost.com. I used fantastico to install coppermine (1.4.2) , xoops (2.0.13.1) I was reading the intergration part and linked to my forum in xoops (http://walkonet.com/content/modules/newbb/) and in relitive path to my config.php for xoops is (http://www.walkonet.com/content/modules/newbb/config.php) but it is saying:

    * There mustn't be a trailing slash in the field Forum URL.
    * http://www.walkonet.com/content/modules/newbb/config.phpmainfile.php doesn't exist. Correct the value you entered for Relative path to your BBS's config file

• Copper Mine Ver. 1.4.2
• xoops Forum install link: http://walkonet.com/content/modules/newbb/
• Coppermine install path: http://walkonet.com/gallery
• Xoops ver: 2.0.13.1
• Test user: Tester/test (coppermine)
• Test User: Tester/tester1 (Xoops)

Bridge Info

• Xoops forum url: http://walkonet.com/content/modules/newbb/
• Relative path to config file for xoops: http://www.walkonet.com/content/modules/newbb/config.php
• user-pot-based groups: dont know what that is sorry

Please forgive me for being new to this because I have never used xoops or coppermine before, and have never 'bridged' anything ever before.

I was wondering what I did wrong? maby I misunderstood the derections or something?
Any help you could offer would be wonderful...

cpg1.4.2 is outdated, the version installed by Fantastico sucks (it differs from the version we provide). Upgrade your coppermine install as suggested in the docs to the most recent version (currently cpg1.4.8). Never use Fantastico.

Thank you for the quick reply... and I will update via this post.

You need to actually enter a relative path when it asks for one. If we wanted the url we would have asked for an url.

http://walkonet.com/gallery
http://www.walkonet.com/content/modules/newbb/config.php

Relative path is ../content/modules/newbb/

Try to be consistent with your use of www.

The reference to 'modules' implies you are not using a regular xoops setup, the bridge may not work in that case.
