have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine1.4.2 and smf 1.1.5:
massive cookies/sessions login loop
Coppermine install: http://tragic-beauty.biz/gallery
Forum install: http://tragic-beauty.biz/forum
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.2
Forum version: SMF 1.1.5
Test user account: testing / test
BridgeManager settings:
Forum URL: http://tragic-beauty.biz/forum
Relative path to your BBS's config file: ../forum/
Use post-based groups?: 1
Cookie name/prefix (if applicable)
Upgrade gallery first to 1.4.18
I could login without any problem btw. Did you clean out cookies from cache ?
yes ..and that works well ..but users have to clean out cookies each time they close the pages or the same loop occurs again ..
I have disabled cookies completely at forum right now ..am testing ..but so far that seems to have solved the issue ...
Question : do i need to disable bridging while upgrading cpg?
No.
Common issue. Either be consistent with your use of the www prefix or enable sub domain independent cookies in SMF.
upgraded - went smoothly no hitches
changed cookies to domain independent.. so far so good -crosses fingers-
