[Solved]: Just upgraded my phpBB from 2.0.5->2.0.8, but now a problem...

[erroneus]

OK, so everything was working fine with CPG 1.3 and phpBB 2.0.5 UNTIL I upgraded my phpBB from 2.0.5 to 2.0.8. I followed the instructions, overwrote the files, and ran /install/upgrade_to_2.0.8.php. It said there were no errors. Everything seems to be working fine, except when I try clicking the "go to administration panel" link in the forum index when I'm already logged in as an Admin, the forum index page refreshes. When I try clicking on Members in CPG main it takes me to the phpBB forum index. What could be wrong?

Please understand that we can not support phpBB. The problem you're reporting seems to be clearly a phpBB issue. For details, post a test user account (non-admin) together with the relevant bits from your bridge file (replace the password with asterisks).

Thing is I can't access the administration panel to add a test user account. It just wont let me access the administration panel, even when I try typing it in manually from any page (/phpBB2/admin/index.php while I'm logged in as an admin). It just takes me to the forum index. But this is an old account of mine so use this one:
login: lunatic
password: blah123

Bridge file bit:

Code Select Expand


// database configuration
define('PHPBB_DB_NAME', 'lmt'); // The name of the database used by the board
define('PHPBB_BD_HOST', 'localhost'); // The name of the database server
define('PHPBB_DB_USERNAME', 'pimpster'); // 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);
// ------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
// You can keep the default values below if your instalation is standard
// ------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
// The prefix for the phpBB cookies
define('PHPBB_COOKIE_PREFIX', 'phpbb2mysql'); // The prefix used for board cookies


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

oh, I won't fix your phpBB install for you, don't get this wrong! Even if I wanted to: the link you posted returns

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /phpBB2/ on this server.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apache/1.3.27 Server at www.lmtchatonline.com Port 80

for me. Don't bother to post any more data on this case, please get phpBB support on the phpBB support board, not here.

Re-installing fixed it. phpMyAdmin rocks.
