Problems with Coppermine-IPB2 bridging

[Knuxman]

I'm running the latest stable version, 1.3.5.

I want to bridge this and my IPB forum. I downloaded the bridging thing.

Q1: It says 1.3.1 .. does it work with 1.3.5?

I did everything the directions said, put in the variables and put up invisionboard_inc.php. I uploaded login.php my IPB directory.

However, when I click login in coppermine, it doesn't redirect me to the IPB login or anything. What's the problem?

Should work fine on any 1.3.x, looks like you missed the edit to include/init.inc.php

What edit is that? It's not in READ.txt

Thanks, my read.txt must be corrupted because that init part wasn't in it.

Now I'm getting another error. I went in inlcude/init.inc.php (There was no include directly or just init.php) and took off the // before the invisionboard line.

However, now when I click login I get this error: "thesonicworld.nethttp could not be found."

I thought I might have entered a wrong value into my webpath, here it is:

// The web path to your Invision Board directory
// In this example http://yoursite_name.com/ivboard/
define('IB_WEB_PATH', 'http://thesonicworld.net/forums/');

This is the correct webpath to my forums though, you can check the link to see. Perhaps I just need /forums/? That's how it was in the example. But then again since I'm using a webost I don't really know how far up root it is, so it would be difficult to do. Maybe ../forums/? (the forums directory is in the same location as the coppermine directory, ../ moves one directory up, correct? Sorry my pathing isn't so good.)

Read the example

Code Select Expand


// In this example http://yoursite_name.com/ivboard/
define('IB_WEB_PATH', '/ivboard/');


You just need to enter the web path to your forum - not an URL and not a full server path. /forums/ is fine.

Thanks it seems to be working now.
