phpBB/cpg integration issues

[klp]

I have read the integration and tried twice with no success. I have tried various things and cannot correct it.
Below is the error when I try to go to my Gallery now. Any help is sincerely appreciated.

Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to phpBB Board database !

MySQL said: Access denied for user: 'user_phpbb2@localhost' (Using password: YES)

I'm no expert;

But check to see that your database name is correct. I had this very same error maybe 30 min ago. I change the database name and poof it was gone!!!

If you have CPanel log in and check your MySQL database names see how many you have and if you know what they are. If CPanel installed the PHPBB it might be under a diffrent name. Give it a shot! Let us kow if it works.

other combinations either gave errors or a similar message.

open the file /phpbb/config.php

you might see this:

Code Select Expand

<?php


// phpBB 2.x auto-generated config file
// Do not change anything in this file!

$dbms = 'mysql';

$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbname = 'mc6_xmb1';
$dbuser = 'mc6_xmb1';
$dbpasswd = 'PASSWORD';

$table_prefix = 'phpbb_';

note the dbname, user, & PW  this is what you are wanting to use. Give this a shot, but note these are mine and your config file maybe diffrent.
