Hi all, new to drupal groups, hope this is posted in the correct place.

I'm having trouble with the phpbb module for drupal.

I have drupal installed with the gallery 2 module successfully installed.
I have the PHPBB module installed, and the PHPBB3 forum.

When i attempt to log into the PHPBB forum, i find i am redirected to the home page of the forum, and do not appear to be loged in. This is the case for all users.
The login button links to the correct location, but it is for some reason being redirected it seems.

Interestingly, when I go back to the drupal install, i find i am correctly logged in.

If anyone has any information on this issue, and how I can solve it, I would greatly appreciate some help.

I know a few people have posted on not ebing able to log in, but the issues were slightly different to this one.

Thanks for your time.

A few of my users are having a similar problem.

Their log ins don't seem to be taking.. bouncing back and forth. Occasionally, I have issues getting into the phpBB admin login, my only solution is to change my password in Drupal

In the logs I see a lot of 'phpBB rebuffed USER_NAME.'

Am running Drupal 5.10, phpBB 3.02(?) and latest version of phpBB Drupal module

Check whether it's a particular browser (IE7, I'm looking at you). I would guess it's related to cookie domain, but that can only be verified with careful inspection.

rebuffed means that phpBB still didn't think the user was logged in and he got sent back to Drupal.

I thought about browser

I thought about browser issues first thing, but I am seeing it across platforms(Mac/PC) and browsers(FF/IE/Safari).

For Drupal I have 'www.f1m.com' for cookies domain, in phpBB I had 'f1m.com' - I have changed it to 'www.f1m.com' now.
