CPG 1.3 and phpbb 2.0.11 login problems

[T_M]

Hi, i've integrated CPG and phpbb, and i can get from gallery to the forum login page etc, but when i log in on the forum and get redirected back to the gallery, i'm not logged in. Then when i try logging in on the gallery again, i get redirected to the forum etc and it's a vicious little circle. I can't figure out what i've done, please could someone help me?

post the changes in your bridge file (replacing your password with asterisks), you probably set up something wrong there.

If you are using phpBB 2, go to the admin control panel and check that "Cookie domain" corresponds to your domain, "Cookie name" is "phpbb2mysql" and "Cookie path" is "/".

You cookie path is not '/', it is '/forums/'. Bridging cannot work under those conditions.

[side note]
Running under the mySQL account "root" is not recommended at all, might be a serious security risk!

thanks guys - greatly appreciated. i'm just gonna try reinstalling the whole thing and hope for the best.

[T_M]

ok, now when i try logging in from the gallery it takes me to the forum, then when i press login it just gives me a blank white screen, any ideas what this might be?

[Nibbler]

Please post your cpg_redir.php

[T_M]

<?php
if (!$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']) {
  $cpg_host=$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_HOST'];
} else {
  $cpg_host=$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
}
$cpg_path='/gallery';
header("Location: http://ourstuff.afraid.org/gallery");
exit;
?>

Somewhat the same problem, I CAN log in to CPG via link from forum, BUT if i try to click log out in the gallery It just gives me an error I'll not below, and not route me back to the forum as it should, from what I assume is the function of the redirect. ne thoughts?

Everytime i click log out in the picture gallery i get this error message
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/sinfulst/www/www/phpBB2/cpg_redir.php:9) in /home/sinfulst/www/www/phpBB2/cpg_redir.php on line 16

Now I can click back then click log out again on CPG and it will show me the CPG screen telling me I'm not logged in.
I'm just finding it a hassel to have the error message above coming up. Shows the same error in IE, and in Firefox...
Also when I click LOGIN on CPG it does send me to the forum to login but when i submit the info to login i get that same error above as well.

I've numbered the lines in the cpg_redir file code to show where the errors are showing for.

psst has anyone even looked?

[Nibbler]

I don't understand what you are doing with the cpg_redir file.

[TheDeJay]

With mine or the other guys...
If dealing with my issue. Whats NOT to understand... I put the error message as to whats gonig on... be more specific as to what you are requesting.

[Nibbler]

Well you could explain why your file starts at line 9. Most files I am familiar with tend to start at line 1.

[TheDeJay]

Created as per the install directions from the included files in the cpg package for the integration and bridging.
