Xoops Bridge Beta 2

[ecoomber]

When I try in Firefox, I just get a blank page.

In IE, I get redirected to my browser default homepage.

[Orstio]

Correct.  Is there a file in that folder named .htaccess?

No, in the modules folder there is only one file, named index.html and I have not edited it.

What kind of redirects do you have set up in your site control panel?

What kind of redirects do you have set up in your site control panel?

None that I'm aware of.

I checked in CPanel and I had one redirect set up, and it had nothing to do with my Xoops or SMF site.  I deleted it though because I don't need it anymore.

I did change the CHMOD properties for index.html (to 777) after I uploaded it... would that matter?

So I can't think of anything else.

[Orstio]

There has to be a redirect.  Either it is in a .htaccess, or it is something from your control panel.

It may be something you thought you set up for another directory/subdomain, but is acting on your modules folder.

Will my members and messages in smf will also be integrated to xoops ?

Thanks

I think maybe I'm just going to give up then and move back to Mambo.  LOL  I just didn't like Mambo b/c the themes were too hard to modify, and I had missing images and I couldn't replace some of the images.  I don't know what to do now.

No offence, but I find the Mambo templates easier in use then the Xoops, but back to your .htaccess problem, don't you have a back up off your site? Search in it for .htaccess maybe you'll find him.

Hello. My xoops site is at http://indianforums.co.in , and forum path is /forums . The login that appears is the of the bridge. I have different admin id and password for both (as I didn't know integration was possible). Problem is

1) I'm able to login from the xoops site with my xoops id, and get redirected to /modules/smf, which is fine, but when I again go to my xoops home page, the login block is again visible - I am not logged in again. Bigger problem is no.2 below

2) After loggin in, the xoops /admin.php is not accessible - says I do not have permission as I am not logged in. Which means that the xoops login block is not visible and the modules/smf login block doesn't actually log me in xoops. Is there a workaround so that I can have admin access for xoops ? No.3 below is a problem, but not urgent.

3) When I go to 'register' from the modules/smf login block, capcha doesn't appear, though it asks for entering the code.

Thanks a lot for this bridge.

Versions?

Yes, if you're not logged into Xoops, you can't access the Xoops admin panel.

3) When I go to 'register' from the modules/smf login block, capcha doesn't appear, though it asks for entering the code.

Does your SMF database user have access to your Xoops database?  Does your Xoops database user have access to your SMF database?  Do you have database driven sessions turned on in SMF?

[Neelay]

Versions latest for both. database driven sessions turned on. But it's OK. Tried little bit myself, but then decided that it isn't actually necessary for my site to have same login for smf and xoops, so will continue as a seperate application. Thanks anyway.

[Orstio]

Versions latest for both.

There are no versions named latest.  Numbers help, "latest" does not.

database driven sessions turned on.

You need to turn that off for CAPTCHA to work inside the integration.

[shalibaji]

[beduino]

hello,
i'm a big fan of xoops too
and i'm see this brigde can be a wonderfull way  - but maybe it's necessary a little more explains...
smf and xoops need install in same database?
prefix of tables can be differents?
the smf will recognize group admin of xoops as admin?

sorry if this a basic questions, but really a big fan of xoops and smf

all the best

smf and xoops need install in same database?

No.  If you have a control panel that allows you to specify multiple databases per user (e.g. cPanel), then you can install SMF and Xoops in separate databases.  You just need to add each database user to the opposite database.

prefix of tables can be differents?

Yes, those will need to be different, especially if they are in the same database.

the smf will recognize group admin of xoops as admin?

As long as the username in Xoops is the same as the username in SMF.
