I originally had my phpBB forum set up and then added coppermine. I used the bridge manager to bridge Coppermine and phpBB2.0.2.
When I click "login" in Coppermine, it takes me to the phpBB login form. I login but it takes me to the parent site of my page. (../../../../) when it should only be ../../. When i go to my coppermine site, it says I'm logged in. I don't know whether this is a Coppermine or phpBB problem.

You don't have cpg1.4.2, but cpg1.4.10, so no problem with that.
oops, sorry about that. yes, i have cpg1.4.10
It sends me to this page: http://web.ics.purdue.edu/?sid=94421dfc64a306c328bb89850a85ce07
Blind guess: phpBB's redirector doesn't like the ~ in the path.
That makes sense! Is there any quick edit to remove the redirect or would I have to make a custom header?
To stop coppermine passing the referer url to your BBS, edit your bridge file (bridge/phpbb.inc.php, phpbb2018.inc.php or phpbb22.inc.php, depending on your phpbb version), find $this->redirectand edit the line accordingly. Edit out the stringredirect=$redirectNot sure how to finally fix this - you may want to look this up on the phpBB support boards.
Problem solved. I simply edited the actual phpBB2 login using the guidlines found here: http://www.neothermic.com/kb/article216.html (http://www.neothermic.com/kb/article216.html)
Thanks for the help.
