Coppermine SMF Bridge works in Firefox only, not in IE

[soleiltan2]

I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and SMF:
Will NOT re-direct in IE; only re-directs in Firefox.

Coppermine install: http://sandrailsonly/coppermine/
Forum install: http://sandrailsonly.com/smf/ [nofollow]
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.14
Forum version: SMF v1.1.4
Test user account: testing / test

After bridging and signing into to Coppermine, the re-direct only works in Firefox, will not re-direct in IE.

What can I check or any advice here? I posted in the Support Forum a couple of days ago and haven't received any help yet.

Have you asked the coppermine group?  This particular bridge was written by their group and is distributed along with the coppermine package.  As such it is difficult for us to support code we did not write.

Yes...I have posted there also. Their response was to upgrade to Coppermines latest version, which I did. But the issue still exists....Just hoping that someone at SMF has had this issue and come up with a fix....

Thanks for getting back to me...

Looking for anyone else who may have stumbled on this prob!

Here is the latest response the Coppermine group has for this "bug"...

"The redirection back from the forum to coppermine is not being performed by coppermine code, but by SMF code."


Here is what I see in the browser that may or may not give a clue to what's happening.

This is what shows in browser bar for Firefox:
'http://sandrailsonly.com/coppermine' [nofollow]
'http://sandrailsonly.com/smf/index.php?action=login' [nofollow]
'http://sandrailsonly.com/smf/index.php?action=login2' [nofollow]
'http://sandrailsonly.com/coppermine/?board=redirect' [nofollow]

But in IE:
'http://sandrailsonly.com/coppermine' [nofollow]
'http://sandrailsonly.com/smf/index.php?action=login' [nofollow]
'http://sandrailsonly.com/smf/index.php' [nofollow];

Please anyone .... can you help! (Really...do computer programming genus' only test their product in one browser? What if -- heaven forbid-- people are using AOL, which only uses IE as its browser? There has to be a solution here...)

So...the dialog I get from Coppermine is as follows:

Coppermine version: cpg1.4.12
Upgrade - most recent stable is currently cpg1.4.14!

You haven't enabled bridging, so there is nothing we could possibly test

alrighty....I upgraded my version of Coppermine with success! So I am now operating with 1.4.14 Coppermine.

Using 1.1.4 SM.

Enabled the bridge again....

It redirects only in Firefox, will NOT re-direct back in IE.

User: testing
Pass: test

This is what shows in browser bar for Firefox:

'http://sandrailsonly.com/smf/index.php?action=login2' [nofollow]

May be a security feature of IE. I can't tell for sure, as I don't have IE. Maybe it will help if you add your site to the list (zone) of trusted sites in your browser's options, security tab.

Tried this...doesn't affect re-direct. I have asked over at SMF and they said that this is Coppermine created Code.

Since IE is soooooooo widely used, I hope that this can be figured out. Are there any sites out there that use this bridge between SMF and Coppermine AND have no problems with re-direct in IE? Thanks for any input.

The redirection back from the forum to coppermine is not being performed by coppermine code, but by SMF code.
