Title: PHPBB and CG1.2.1 - cannot find groups?
Post by: shoandgo.com on May 30, 2004, 06:06:01 PM
Hello All -

Im new to this so I dont know exactly what i am doing...

I tried everything, and i cant get the groups to work. Maybe they are working, but im not sure. I only have one member on coppermine, and 2 on my board. Neither of the 2 on my board are showing up in the groups.

When i try to log in with my test account on the gallery, it wont let me. It says its not an account or whatever. But then i can log in with that same account on my forum...

Please help me! I read the README over and over and cannot get it to work!

you didn't enable bbs integration in coppermine, read http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/manual.php#integrating

Can you give me a link to the right coppermine gallery i need? I downloaded 3 of them now, and i dont know which one to use. None of them have (phpbb.php) or anything like that.

The manual doesnt look the same either...EX :

The go to the bridge directory and open the file that corresponds to the bulletin board you use (eg. phpbb.php).

At the beginning of the file there are a number a configuration values that need to be set. For phpBB they are the following :

// database configuration
define('PHPBB_DB_NAME','phpBB');     // The name of the database used by the board
define('PHPBB_BD_HOST','localhost'); // The name of the database server
define('PHPBB_DB_USERNAME','root');  // The username to use to connect to the    database
define('PHPBB_DB_PASSWORD','');      // The password to use to connect to the database

// The web path to your phpBB directory
// If your URL to your board is for example 'http://yoursite_name.com/phpBB2/',
// you'll have to set the below var to '/phpBB2/'.
define('PHPBB_WEB_PATH', '/phpBB2/');
// Logout Flag
// the value of this boolean constant depends on your phpBB version:
// If your version of phpBB is 2.0.4 or lower - change the value to FALSE;
// if your version of phpBB is 2.0.5 or newer - leave it as TRUE
define('PHPBB_LOGOUT_GET', TRUE);
Modify them according to the configuration of your board and save the file.


Important: if you use phpBB, you'll have to do this additional step, those who run any other bbs won't have to do this:


Thanks!

Unless you're very experienced, you should go for the latest stable version (cpg1.2.1): http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/coppermine/cpg1.2.1.zip?download

Use the documentation on this page, it's the most recent one.
