Forget about the redirector for a moment - you haven't even configured your bridge file correctly (or not at all). If you can't log in to your forum, you will have to look for support on your forum's support board (phpbb in your case), since coppermine integration doesn't change anything on your bbs, it doesn't touch the bbs install.
When asking for support on integration, it is most helpfull to post real links (with http:// in front of it, so they are clickable), a test user account and the stuff you changed in the bridge file (replace password with asterisks for security reasons).
I recommend taking another look into the integration guide and to follow it step by step. Do not skip a step!

well thats the thing i did edit the bridge/phpbb.inc.php via ftp

i just dont get what it mean for that code i posted ie:

Code Select Expand

header("Location: http://".$cpg_host.$cpg_path);

i dont get the format ""http://".$cpg_host.$cpg_path""  i read them over and over  i having a block, can some1 post there example.

http://gotlan.net/forum/ <-- forum

http://gotlan.net/gallery/  <-- gallery

i would make a test accout but i cant login to the admin accout. and i can logout of my accout.

why not use the bridge supplied with coppermine. Allyou have to do is add your mySQL forum info into one file.. and change copy/paste into a file for login/out purposes to re0direct back to coppermine, if using coppermine to log in.

Seemed rather easy for me

umm yes i did do that can some1 post there config where i code i posted??

ie again....

header("Location: http://".$cpg_host.$cpg_path);

thats the only part i dont get  the mysql is fine that works the groups moved over fine,  but can some 1 post how they did that part of the code.

You can leave that file exactly as it is, your gallery is installed in /gallery

Like I said before: edit your bridge file accordingly. I recommend you re-read the entire integration section in the docs: http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/manual.php#integrating

ie again....
header("Location: http://".$cpg_host.$cpg_path);
thats the only part i dont get...

Although this forum is for Coppermine support not PHP tutoring:

That line triggers a browser redirect to the given URL. The function header(...) is a PHP funcition that sends an HTTP header to browser. The syntax of the parameter is standard string concatenation in PHP, ie. the string "Location: http://" + the contents of the variable $cpg_host + the contents of the variable $cpg_path. For more information please see PHP documentation.

Regardless of your understanding of how it works and why - it works. As Nibbler already wrote the default cpg_redir.php file is good for your configuration and you don't need to touch it.

If something still doesn't work please post FULL information about your setup as GauGau suggested.

EZ.
