The script didn't work for me !

[BrainDamage]

Hi there !

I would like to thank you for publishing this new version of your integration script. I was needing it so bad !

I tested it on blank e107 160 and invision 1.3.1 installations ! (test server)

Now I downloaded it this morning and installed :

1. Install went through without problems !
2. Removed all e107 members
3. Copied invision members
4. Logout works from invision board
5. Logout doesn't work from e107
6. Login works from invision
7. Login doesn't work from e107

Here is the main problem : When a user wants to identify from e107, he gets redirected to the invision board login (even if he is already logged in invision h34r: )

I can't administer e107 anywore as login stoped working !

Tried twice but still noway to login at e107...

Could you please have a look ?

Or just send me a working copy and I can host a demo site for people to see. e107 and NUke if you want !

Thanks again !!!

Warning: Wrong parameter count for mysql_connect() in /home/overmind/www/CMS_Forum_Hack/classes/mysql.php on line 36
ERR_mysql_connect

E107/IPB1.3.1

Carnage, I guess it's not that bad.. you just misspelled your mysql parameters !

verify your host,database name, user and password !

Tell me if it works for you !

Well, i also get some problems.. It's seams that I can't change the cookiename to e107cookie... when i submiting the changes the cookiename returns to ecookie <_<

When I'm using phpmyadmin to change it, I get an error on line 27 in message_handler.php

[Carnage]

are you testing it on a remote server or a local server?

Ehh, let's see if we can clear some things up.
First off, this script was developed (as usual) locally. Login / Logout didn't work locally because of cookie problems but they did work on a development server.

I tested this on different configurations, but I knew problems would still arise.

First off, when entering DB info, ensure that if you are using e107 that you set the prefix to what yours is (default for e107 would be e107_ ).

Well, i also get some problems.. It's seams that I can't change the cookiename to e107cookie... when i submiting the changes the cookiename returns to ecookie dry.gif

When I'm using phpmyadmin to change it, I get an error on line 27 in message_handler.php

You can change the cookie name that the script accesses by opening up classes/cms-e107-*.php and changing var $cookie_name = "e107_cookie";

Not sure why you are not able to connect. What version of PHP are you running. The script was tested on both PHP 5 and PHP 4.3.8. It is likely that your PHP version is < 4.2.0, as it returns "wrong parameter count" and is likely not picking up on the new_link. (http://us3.php.net/mysql_connect ).

Ok then, let's see. First to explain how the hack works.

Because of the several cookies set by forums, it is alot easier to redirect a person to the forums and hack the forums to login the CMS users, than to redirect the forums user to the CMS and hack the CMS to login the forum user.

Thus, when a person clicks Login on your CMS, he should be taken to the login of the invision board forums. If you are already logged in to the forums, then logout. The forum's login / logout, once hacked, also acts as the login / logout of e107. It HAD to be done this way.

Therefore, if you get redirected to forums and you are already logged in, then logout and log back in. This should be a rare event and should probably only happen the first time after you installed this hack.

I'm sorry but it's not working !

I had tried two configurations (on my local company servers and on a british hosting provider) but still ain't no luck ! Same problem !

To say in two words what I got from installing this script is that when a user types in his login/passwd in e107 and clicks login, he gets redirected to IBF forum. he can sure type "again" his login/passwd but still he'll never get to login into e107 !

You said it's a one time bug, well i tried several times from many different computers, and even went to the office in front of mine to test from their network, still same prob !

If you have a working version, can I see how it works? it's php info etc...

I know that you spent time developping this, and having people complain about it ain't piece of cake but please ! I really need this script !!!!

Thank you again patiek !

Could you point me to where you have installed it publicly? I could help you debug it.

Here is what you need to ensure:
1. When you login to your forums, the forums set your e107 cookie.
2. When you visit your e107, your e107 picks up on the same cookie (same name).
3. When you logout from your forum, the forum deletes the same e107 cookie.

Also, it is possible, since you are admin (and the script does not delete the CMS admin accounts), that you have conflicting passwords. If this is so, you can still login to the admin section (http://dev.ep-dev.com/hackdev/e107_admin/admin.php ) and change your password.

Lastly, what setup do you have? The script was only tested on a domain.com / domain.com/forum(s) setup. Not on a subdomain setup.

Here is the script where I did its final tests: http://dev.ep-dev.com/hackdev/news.php . To prove that it works
