[MOD] Bridge: 4images 1.7.7 - phpBB 3.0.5+

[Player73]

Hi.

I try to use:
- Joomla 1.5.14
- phpbb3
- 4image

2gether

- Joomla 1.5 ---2--- phpbb3 bridge working fine = mehdiplugins|-c-o-m-|/misc/phpbbjoom.htm
- 4images 1.77 - standalone - working
- 4images 1.77 ---2--- phpbb3.0.5 bridge from you, I'm still adjusting


First I've got the following error, than I reajusted something:

Warning: require() [function.require]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/../phpbb/3/config.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/*domainname*/www/htdocs:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear:/tmp:/var/www/*domainname*/www/htdocs:/home/*user*/domains/*domainname*/www/htdocs) in /home/*user*/domains/*domainname*/www/htdocs/4images/includes/phpbb_sessions.php  on line 17

Warning: require(/../phpbb/3/config.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /home/*user*/domains/*domainname*/www/htdocs/4images/includes/phpbb_sessions.php on line 17

Now I get this Error in 4images after following your tutorial "An unexpected error occured. Please try again later."

what can I change or try different?

Can you please post what do you have in your config files?

[Player73]

thx for the fast reply

sure, PW and Username, were renamed, don't want them to float over the net
I recognized, in the beginning that one of the configuration files messed around the "$" symbol to "/" could that be a problem? I already changed it, but there is no change to the frontend

The structure is like that:

domain
domain/15/ = joomla
domain/phpbb/3/ = phpbb
domain/4images/ = 4images


4gallery

Code: [Select]

@Player73, lines 35-36 are not correct at all in you 4images/config.php, don't you see it? There should be a path, and placeholders like "<phpbb_url>" should be replaced with your values.

[Player73]

to be honest I'm really new in coding
- I just followed your instructions, and other tutorials.
so I didn't see it, what would be an example?
What could I enter there, if you give me an example, I will enter my information there =)

is it important to xxx: xxx: domainnamexxx: /folder/subfolder
?

According to your previous info it should be something like that:

Code: [Select]

define('PHPBB3_PATH', realpath(realpath(dirname(__FILE__)).'/../phpbb/3/') . '/');
define('PHPBB3_URL', '/phpbb/3/');


[Player73]

thanks a lot for the help =) I followed your instructions.

Well now I'm back at the old problem: "An unexpected error occured. Please try again later."

either I made an error while following your step for step instructions, or the two bridges don't like each other.

I will come back to you tomorow, I try to install it again from the scratch 2 times before I make you more efforts.


*edit*

I think I've made an error again in the config

Code: [Select]

/home/username/domains/domain-name.de/www/htdocs/phpbb/3
/home/username/domains/domain-name.de/www/htdocs/4images

woaharrrr.... I want it to work *going crazy* ^^

Any help on this? Please...

Any help on this? Please...

So what did you say SQL error message says exactly? What versions of 4images and phpBB do you use? Did you tried to check step by step your modifications? Do you have any other MODs for 4images or phpBB or both? Did you tried to switch them off one by one to avoid any possible conflicts?

Or should I guess an answers by myself?

I´m not using any other mods/plugins, on either phpbb or 4images.
I´m using the latest versions of both the forum and the gallery.

Just updated demo installation at http://bridge.boxup.us to phpBB version 3.0.7-PL1 (latest stable) and see no any issues at all. Please make sure you did modification correctly, this is the only thing I can suggest you for now.

I used the modified files in the first post, so it can´t be anything that i´ve done.
Not sure on how to fix this.

This can't be true, I just downloaded modded.zip, unpacked it on my hosting and copied configuration file from previous installation: http://bridge.boxup.us/modded/ — works like it should work without any glitches.
