I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and phpBB 2.0.19:
New users can login into coppermine. OLD USERS try login but in coppermine homepage they're not legged in. :-\

Coppermine install: http://www.canedellaprateria.it/AlbumFoto/
Forum install: http://www.canedellaprateria.it/phpBB2/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.4
Forum version: phpBB 2.0.19
Test user account: simone / simone (a new user)
               buddha / pippo (an old user)

BridgeManager settings:
Forum URL:  http://www.canedellaprateria.it/phpBB2
Relative path to your BBS's config file:  ../phpBB2/
Use post-based groups?:  0


Tnx for your help,
Giovanni

Are the 'old' users registered in your forum or in Coppermine ? any old users from Coppermine are not available when bridged.

bags

I've installed cpg 1.4.4.
Before the installation there wasn't cpg on the system.
So the old user was old PHPBB users.

Did you select the bridging option for phpbb greater than 2.0.18 ?

bags

Yes.
Before open this post, I've read all other posts to find if I made some mistakes.
Seems all right in bridging and works well for new users :(

No idea, there is theoretically no difference between 'old' and 'new' users as far as Coppermine is concerned.

bags

seems like coppermine read old users ad part of group "guest" (group_id=3 in usergroups).
Where I can find link from php user table and coppermine usergroup table?

I've solved  :o
The problem was that phpbb use to create an usergroups for each registered user.
For not known reason all old user loose their user groups.
Fixing that I've resolved my strange problem.

Tnx again,
Giovanni
