I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and phpbb2:
Let's start from the beginning after I login I go to Admin Tools / Bridge Manager / I select enable then click on the start bridge manager button.
Then it just sends me back to the Bridge Manager: emergency recovery log in screen... If I login it just takes me back to the admin area... Around and around I go...
It never gets me to the point where I can configure the settings.

My site, forum & coppermine used to be seamlessly integrated at it was a wonderful thing. If I goof around and login to the forum then click on the login to the gallery it will redirect me back to the forum to login again then if I go back it seems to work but thats crazy for me and my users... How can I just get it to recognize it when you login the first time like it used to...
Please help me fix it.

Coppermine install: http://www.stryper.net/gallery/
Forum install: http://www.stryper.net/forum/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.1.4
Forum version: phpbb2 app v2.0.22
Test user account: testuser / testme

BridgeManager settings:
Forum URL:  http://mysite.tld/test/foo_bar
Relative path to your BBS's config file:  ../bla/
Use post-based groups?:  0
Cookie name/preifx (if applicable)

Please provide correct data when posting.

You are bridging a gallery at stryper.net to a forum at strypedforever.com. You can't expect that to work.

No not really...
I have one server...
I have 4 domain names that point to the server for the added traffic, so in essence the forum & gallery are part of both domain names. We prefer going with www.stryper.net when at all possible.

By the way I'm not trying to post wrong or incorrect info...

Additional domain name aliases that point to one and the same server will not help for bandwidth or traffic usage issues, so I can't see the point in that in the first place.
Please read up the bridging section of the docs, especially the section that explains cookie authentification.
