Lost bridge after swapping domains

[terrano]

Hi All

Shifted entire site to new domain and bridging is not working - I can sign into the gallery with the gallery admin details
and have access to config, bridging, and groups tabs - groups tab sporadic where sometimes it allows me to see groups
and sometimes says do not have permission to access.

I just changed the bridging manager details to the new domain name only, kept other details e.g ../ to same as when was working before
on other domain.

Do the previous details entered into the database need to be cleared for new details ? Is the bridge folder meant to be in the messageboard folder ? (worked perfect before residing in the gallery folder)

Cheers


Coppermine install: http://www.nzmb.kiwi.nz/gallery/index.php

Coppermine version: cpg 1.5 +

BridgeManager settings:
Bridge app URL:  http://www.nzmb.kiwi.nz/messageboard
Relative path to your bridge app's config file:  ../messageboard/
Cookie name or prefix:  phpbb3_ddjc4
Use bridge app custom groups?:

Did you run update.php after the move? Before you do that please check the following setting is correct - http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/configuration.htm#admin_general_coppermine-url

Hi Phill - thanks

No unfortunately I did not run update after the move, I currently cannot access the config tab - sporadic

Can php admin be used to fix my problem ?

Pretty sure entered the new domain as it should be in the config setting.

(I can PM password and ftp details)

Maybe you can start by  unbridging through bridge manager  - check the docs if you are unsure about how to do it.

Then run update.

Thanks Joe

I thought I was bridging but was un-bridging through bridge manager, if I had
just updated after swapping domains probably would have been right - spent
2 days on this - don't come on here unless really tried - keep going "round in circles"

Pretty sure entered the new domain as it should be in the config setting.

It's set correctly.

bridging is not working

I can sign into the gallery with the gallery admin details
and have access to config, bridging, and groups tabs

So bridging works. What's the actual issue? Unfortunately you haven't posted a test user account.

Hi Αndré, Sorry for not being clear - was confused as to what was happening.

The bridge is partly working - when the bridge is connected and the gallery login is clicked on
I get redirected to the forum login panel - enter the forum admin details and get re-directed back to
the gallery but no gallery admin tabs are displayed and are also logged out of the forum.

Cannot provide a test account as only account that can sign into gallery is the admin details (can PM them)

While the site on nzmb.kiwi.nz was being built it was at www.nzmessageboard.co.nz/nzmb (All site files in nzmb folder)

It is currently sitting on a parked domain - all site files are in a www.nzmb.kiwi.nz folder off public_html same hierarchy as before
with the nzmb folder off public_html ?

Read in the notes togo to permissions in the forum admin panel and select groups and then administrators then advanced permissions
then misc to check yes for administration of coppermine - cannot see coppermine in misc off groups but it is there when go direct
from permissions to administrators

When adding the add-on domain http://www.nzmb.kiwi.nz the add-on domain panel would not accept the domain
with http:// - labeled folder in public_html - www.nzmb.kiwi.nz

Possible cause of the fault with it saying in the bridge help file to include the http:// ?

[Αndré]

Not sure what your "add-on domain panel" or the bridge file tells you, but the domain is always without "http://" or something like that. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_resource_locator#Syntax

I'll send you my contact details via PM.

When I log-in to your board it doesn't create a cookie for authentication, but adds the parameter sid to each hyperlink. I assume this is a phpBB setting. If you manually remove that parameter you're unauthenticated, if you manually add it back to the URL, you're again authenticated.

However, to use bridging, your board needs to create cookies: http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/bridging.htm#integrating_cookie_start

[terrano]

Thank you for your help Αndré much appreciated. Your link got me thinking that maybe something was not right in the phpBB3 setting, the server setting within the phpBB3 admin panel required new domain to be entered.

Yes you are correct phpBB3 uses session id's.


Cheers all for your input
