UNintegrate phpBB from Geeklog?

[justbishop]

I had a bridged installation of phpbb/geeklog (I'm not sure what version of phpBB...it was whatever came with the Geeklog bridge download pack), and I wanted to do away with the Geeklog part of things. So here's the story thusfar:

• I dropped all of the Geeklog tables from the database, and exported all of the phpBB ones to a txt file.

• I made a fresh install of the latest version of phpBB (dl'd from here), and tested out the functions to make sure everything was working correctly.

• I then imported my old phpBB database tables, so that all of the user/post/forum/etc. info would be on the new, latest, Geeklog-less install of phpBB.

• Made a second fresh install of phpBB just to compare the databases, and noticed that my imported database only had 29 tables, as opposed to an out-of-the-box install of 30 tables.

• Figured out that it was the "sessions_keys" table that was missing from my imported database, so I created it, modeling it after the default install database one.

And now, the problems:

• When hitting submit to login, or the"logout" link to logout, we're getting a "page cannot be displayed" error. But after doing that, if you go back to the index page and refresh, the forum shows your updated status correctly.

• When logged in under my admin account, I get the same "page cannot be displayed" error when I click on the link to the admin panel.

Try giving http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=228741 a run to correct the cookie & script settings

YAY! Login/out and admin cp access are working wonderfully now, THANK YOU!!

But I have a new problem (still related to the Geeklog uninstall, I'm guessing). Anything having to do with search functions brings this up:

Could not delete old search id sessions

DEBUG MODE

SQL Error : 1054 Unknown column 'search_time' in 'where clause'

DELETE FROM phpbb_search_results WHERE search_time < 1161006270

Line : 657
File : search.php

A 1054 error is usually caused by a older database a newer file set. Upload the install directory from the latest phpBB and point your browser to yoursite/yourforum/install/update_to_latest.php

Once that has run delete the install directory. Job done.

Worked like a charm, thanks!!!
