I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and phpbb:

I click login in CM and I get redirected to forum login, but when I go back to coppermine I am not logged in.  I have gotten it to work a few times, but it does not seem consistent and my users are all having similar issues.

Coppermine install: http://www.clankm.com/gallery
Forum install: http://www.clankm.com/forum/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.2
Forum version: PHPBB 2.0.22
Test user account: test / test123

BridgeManager settings:
Forum URL:  http://www.clankm.com/forum
Cookie domain:  .clankm.com
Cookie name  :  phpBB2_forum
Cookie path  :  /forum
Relative path to your BBS's config file:  ../forum/ 
Use post-based groups?:  0

Coppermine version: cpg1.4.2
You don't have cpg1.4.2, you have cpg1.4.10 (which is fine, as it is currently the most recent version). Please be more acurate in the future - this peice of information is particularly important.

This is what causes your issues: setting the path to /forum means that coppermine (which resides in /gallery) can't read the cookie set by your forum. Go to your forum's administration panel and change the cookie path there. Then delete your local cookie (in your browser) and try again.

Thnx a ton.  All fixed up.

Sorry for the inaccurate version info, but I just used the request for help template and figured the version was correct because I had just downloaded the mod.

Can close and mark as solved, thnx again.
