Login on pages outside forum root

[media12]

I have a forum located on site.com/forum/

And I have added a page: site.com/testpage.php

The code in testpage.php is:

Code: Select all

<?php
    define('IN_PHPBB', true);
    $phpbb_root_path = (defined('PHPBB_ROOT_PATH')) ? PHPBB_ROOT_PATH : './forum/';
    $phpEx = substr(strrchr(__FILE__, '.'), 1);
    include($phpbb_root_path . 'common.' . $phpEx);

    // Start session management
    $user->session_begin();
    $auth->acl($user->data);
    $user->setup();

    page_header('Gallery');

    $template->set_filenames(array(
        'body' => 'gallery_body.html',
    ));

    make_jumpbox(append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}viewforum.$phpEx"));
    page_footer();
?>

The problem is now that when I log into the /forum/ and then go testpage.php I'm not longer logged in.


If I add the testpage.php in /forum/testpage.php and change the location to:

Code: Select all

$phpbb_root_path = (defined('PHPBB_ROOT_PATH')) ? PHPBB_ROOT_PATH : './';

I don't know if this is has anything to do with this, but here are my cookie settings:

.site.com
phpbb3_f4gnh
/forum/
Disabled


I'm running on a Windows -server 2008 if that might help you in guessing.


Please, can anyone help me with this? I would really really appreciate it!

Then it works when I visit site.com/forum/testpage.php, but I want it to work when I have it in site.com/testpage.php

Try with

Code: Select all

/

as cookie path, should do it

That didn't work, if I use just "/" i can login to the forum on site.com/forum, and it says "You have been successfully logged in." but when it redirects me back to the index, I automatically get logged out.

Have you deleted your browser's cache and cookie once you updated the cookie path ?
