ModphpBB3 Community Forum

I was using modphpBB3 version 4 with no problems but now for some reason I keep getting these errors.

phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /includes/session.php on line 457: session::include_once(./includes/auth/auth_smf.php) [function.session-include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory

When I try and login to the forum I get:

General Error
Authentication method not found

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

There looks to be an SMF authorisation. Did you try to convert to or from Simple Machines forum?

Ages ago.

When I started using modphpBB I converted from phpBB3 and everything has been working fine for a few weeks. JUst gone like this today.

It seems the auth method has been changed. Go into your admin and look on the left menu for Authentication. Change that to db.

It won't allow me to login to admin. Keep getting General Error
Authentication method not found

Ash is right by the sound of it, even though you can't access admin, it seems like your auth method is changed to SMF?

Go into your database via phpmyadmin, click on phpbb_config and browse, look for auth and edit. Change SMF to db, just type db and save.

You will then have to clear board cookies back on the site and login should be good to go again.

Many Thanks.

Back working again now.

Thanks for the help.

You might be able to help with something else. I want to upgrade to modphp5 only can find a fresh .sql file, where do I find the update for the database?

Thanks

Your the first and won't be the last to ask that question.

There will be an update for phpBB3 boards as with 1.0.4 but it will not be yet. There is a portal 1.0.5 coming soon, and it hopefully will follow after that.

You were right to change from Simple Machines Forum
