1) There is no such phpbb version as 2.17
2) Update your gallery to 1.3.3, 1.3.2 is not secure.
3) The test account is not 'Test', it is 'test'
4) You forum's cookie path should not be '/forums', it should be '/' as stated in the documentation.
5) Your cookie prefix is not 'mgforum_', it is 'mgforum__'

phpbb 2.17

Not to be a smart alec, but just for your future edification... 2.17 does not equal 2.0.17. It seems minor but if the application does happen to have both versions, it would confuse supporters if you use them interchangeably.
