yet another cpg to phpbb 2.0.18 bridging problem

[zebraplayer]

Hi and thanks for reading.

I recently switched web hosts and moved my site to another site's subdomain. However, the subdomain is set up as an addon domain, so it can be accessed directly through its domain name (http://group101clt.com instead of http://group101clt.indiefilmforce.org). I mention this because I suspect it has something to do with the cookies issue I am having.

Now, after upgrading to phpbb 2.0.18 and having uploaded the new bridging file and made all the necessary changes, I still can't log in to cpg after being redirected from a perfectly good login at phpbb.

Any thoughts? I'd appreciate any help offered.

Test username: test
password: test

My changes to bridge file:

Code Select Expand

// database configuration
define('PHPBB_DB_NAME', 'indiefi_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', 'mydbusername'); // The username to use to connect to the database
define('PHPBB_DB_PASSWORD', 'dbpassword'); // 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://group101clt.indiefilmforce.org/msgboard/',
// you'll have to set the below var to '/msgboard/'.
define('PHPBB_WEB_PATH', '/msgboard/');

// ------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
// You can keep the default values below if your instalation is standard
// ------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
// The prefix for the phpBB cookies
define('PHPBB_COOKIE_PREFIX', 'roupmsgb_phpbb')

Ah! I was modifying it to include that info when you posted.

Please see first post above.

Thanks!

Cookie path must be '/'

You need to decide what domain name you are going to use and stick to it.

Nibbler,

My cookie path is set to "/" in the cpg config table.

What do you mean by stick to a site name? Here's my problem. I am new to this addon domain/subdomain thing and I'm not sure what is "real" and what is virtual, in terms of what the settings the system will understand. Does that make sense? I don't know if the "behind the scenes" settings can be group101clt.com or if they must be group101clt.indiefilmforce.org.

Again thanks for your input.
