PHPBB and CG1.2.1 - cannot find groups?

[shoandgo.com]

Hello All -

Im new to this so I dont know exactly what i am doing...

I tried everything, and i cant get the groups to work. Maybe they are working, but im not sure. I only have one member on coppermine, and 2 on my board. Neither of the 2 on my board are showing up in the groups.

When i try to log in with my test account on the gallery, it wont let me. It says its not an account or whatever. But then i can log in with that same account on my forum...

Please help me! I read the README over and over and cannot get it to work!

you didn't enable bbs integration in coppermine, read http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/manual.php#integrating

Can you give me a link to the right coppermine gallery i need? I downloaded 3 of them now, and i dont know which one to use. None of them have (phpbb.php) or anything like that.

The manual doesnt look the same either...EX :

Code Select Expand

The go to the bridge directory and open the file that corresponds to the bulletin board you use (eg. phpbb.php).

At the beginning of the file there are a number a configuration values that need to be set. For phpBB they are the following :

// database configuration
define('PHPBB_DB_NAME','phpBB');     // The name of the database used by the board
define('PHPBB_BD_HOST','localhost'); // The name of the database server
define('PHPBB_DB_USERNAME','root');  // The username to use to connect to the    database
define('PHPBB_DB_PASSWORD','');      // The password to use to connect to the database

// The web path to your phpBB directory
// If your URL to your board is for example 'http://yoursite_name.com/phpBB2/',
// you'll have to set the below var to '/phpBB2/'.
define('PHPBB_WEB_PATH', '/phpBB2/');
// Logout Flag
// the value of this boolean constant depends on your phpBB version:
// If your version of phpBB is 2.0.4 or lower - change the value to FALSE;
// if your version of phpBB is 2.0.5 or newer - leave it as TRUE
define('PHPBB_LOGOUT_GET', TRUE);
Modify them according to the configuration of your board and save the file.


Important: if you use phpBB, you'll have to do this additional step, those who run any other bbs won't have to do this:


Thanks!

Unless you're very experienced, you should go for the latest stable version (cpg1.2.1): http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/coppermine/cpg1.2.1.zip?download

Use the documentation on this page, it's the most recent one.
