The brigde for some reason doesn't work for me.
But i'm wondering isn't their just a extension or script or addon, that just uses same users database and not the cookies ?
Cause that gives error, i just want my phpbb3 users to be able to login into coppermine, and i don't need the sam cookie to be authed?

Hope somone can help me.

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

Rosbief

I've read the post, i'm asking for a bridge without the cookie session.
Just a bridge with same user database.

The you need to code it yourself if you can. Nibbler has extensive experience in creating these bridges. He has built it this way for a reason.

I suggest you install the bridge and then if you have problems do as requested in the link I posted and we will try and help.

I'll try and lookinto it, the reason i don't want the cookie cause i don't want to be autologged in and I don't want phpbb and coppermine to share groups, i still want them separate, only users the same.

Is it only needed to add a user to the user table or does it involve more?

Joachim Müller

It involves more. What you're up to requires an in-deep understanding of both apps as well as understanding how cookies and sessions work. Your request to only share users and not to share groups shows that you don't seem to have those skills. It's not impossible to create a session-driven bridging application instead of using cookie-driven authentification, but would require fundamental changes of the bridging concept we have, so you're on your own with that if you want to achieve that, and you need to be an extremely skilled coder with a lot of time to kill.

Well, then set the cookie lifetime accordingly. No need to try to switch from cookie-driven auth to session-driven auth.

What you're trying to do sounds to me like you don't like the color of your doorbell button and instead of replacing that you knock the house down and build it from scratch. A bit too much if you ask me, but you're welcome to try (and fail).

Rosbief

Thanks for the help anyways.

I looked into both apps and i managed to create a script so users are shared but nothing else :D
Finnaly took me a hour of my time, and I do know php :D
I've been using it for years now.

Thanks.

Then why not share it with the community?

I should post my user registration script for my website to the forum? just for a users table in coppermine?
It's a php class file.
