vb 3.64 and CPG 1.40 Bridge Problem

[SteveSteve]

I should say, I am not able to login as admin in CG, even though I am a Super Admin in vb.

Make sure that you don't have an application in place that messes with local cookies, e.g. the notorious "Norton Internet Security" or similar crap. If you have such a silly pseudo-security app, review the settings.

It doesn't.... it seems to log me out everytime I view the user end.... a pain.

I have the same issue when trying to bridge coppermine vBulletin 3.6.5
no error message

Coppermine install: http://www.beyondjustimages.com/gallery/
Forum install: http://www.beyondjustimages.com/forum/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.10
Forum version: vBulletin 3.6.5
Test user account: CPGTest / CPGTest

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

I have tried deleting cookies, I have check that my vBulletin cookie is there, and I have tried Iguana1986 fix.  But to no avail.

BUMP
Please can someone help with this?

Unable to replicate - bridging appears to work fine: when logging in to your BBS with the test user account you provided and then going to your gallery, I'm logged in there as well. What's the actual question?

[Drewskie]

Sorry, I was offline and couldn't reply sooner. :-\
I managed to fix it by setting coppermine's and vbulletin's cookie path to be the root of the webserver

Thanks!

OK, fine.

Finally marking this thread as solved and locking it. People with similar issues should read the sticky thread as suggested here repeatedly and then start their own thread.
