PHPbb intregration How To?

[qwaven]

Hello, I know this is possible but I am not sure where to look in order to do this. I remember seeing a post or doc which said how to merg coppermine and phpbb so they use the same user database, but I am unalbe to find it now that I need it

Anyone able to point me to a doc or help me out with how to setup coppermine/phpbb so they use the same database? All I have seen is problems after merging which doesnt help right now.

Please let me know,
     Thanks

The places you could have looked for an answer:

• the documentation that comes with your coppermine package
• The link at the top of this page saying "Documentation"
• A search on this board for the term "phpbb integration"

Anyway, here's the link: http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/manual.php#integrating

Thanks for the link

The first thread on this page is about that...  4 pages of problems.  READ IT BEFORE INSTALLING PHPBB.  Maybe you would reconsider the board to integrate with CPG: http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=1164.60

good luck, then...   

remember you can always do it again (I had to), or convert board to board if you have any trouble.
I had XMB board for one year, then I wanted to use CPG and converted XMB to PHPBB.  As it didn't worked, I converted it again to SMF, and everything is (almost) working.
