I haven't been using Joomla very long although I am familiary with phpBB. I am working to update my site but have to include the phpBB3 forum because it would be a huge waste not to. I am trying to get Rokbridge to work and while the instructions etc all seem self explanatory I am still having a problem.
The folder for the forum is phpBB3
The folder for the bridge is forum
Here is my configuration file.
<?php class JConfigForum { var $phpbb_path = 'phpBB3'; var $sef = '0'; var $sef_rewrite = '0'; var $remember_login = false; var $live_site = ''; } ?>
After following the instructions the test URL is xxx/forum but I only get a page with "Error displaying the error page: Application Instantiation Error"
I have obviously done something wrong although I have tried to install Rokbridge three times.
I am using the Oculus Theme on both Joomla and phpBB and used the Rocketlauncher to install a fresh copy of phpBB3.
Is there a known bug or should I step outside and beat my head against a wall? Thanks - Last Edit: 11 years 2 months ago by Crocodile.

Yes. Joomla is installed in the top domain level, phpBB3 is a subfolder of that domain. I have not installed a Forum link yet since I hadn't got past the option to test the bridge after install. The site is at conwaydrivers.com, the phpBB3 folder is conwaydrivers.com/phpBB3
Thanks for the reply

- Take a look at the php error_log. Might be you are missing some php support or possibly a permissions issue.

I checked the error file and only saw 404 errors, which didn't help. I deleted everything and installed a fresh copy of Joomla using the Oculus rocketlauncher but didn't update it to the latest version. I installed a fresh copy of phpBB and then installed the Rocketlauncher of the matching phpBB which I downloaded from here. Now I installed Rokbridge and it worked!!
Joomla version 3.1.5 worked!!
Updated to Joomla version 3.2.2 and the problem returns. I guess that Rokbridge doesn't work with 3.2.2 but I don't know who I should advise here so that an update is done. I read one of your earlier posts wherein you said you would let someone know about another problem which involved going to the Admin Panel on phpBB but to date your suggested correction (which solved the problem) hasn't been incorporated into Rokbridge. Perhaps I can ask you to pass the information on to whoever needs to know.
Thanks for your help Joe. Hopefully I have been helpful to Rockettheme by passing on my findings.
