I have a clean phpBB install and my Zen Cart install.
Don't ask why I didn't install phpBB with my original ZC install...
Is there a simple way to configure phpBB to use the account data in the ZC database? Or should I re-upload the ZC install, then try to goto the phpBB install page... I wanna try that, but I don't want to $&(# anything up.

Re: Manually syncing phpBB and ZC accts.
I re-uploaded zc_install, then re-enabled the configs php's to 777, and ONLY went to the phpbb_setup page, and saved the correct settings for the location of the forum. Then deleted zc_install, and set permissions back to 444 for the config .php's ...
Now, I think I need to set the settings for Zen Cart to access my phpbb database?
Anyone know where the configs are for that? Since I didn't go through the full install... I'm looking around and I can't find them.

Re: Manually syncing phpBB and ZC accts.
Nice, thanks! But, It still won't create accounts in phpbb when I create one in zen cart.
I'm pretty sure I need to configure the database login for ZC>phpbb somewhere... Don't I?

Re: Manually syncing phpBB and ZC accts.
/includes/configure.php
what's set for DIR_WS_PHPBB ?
It needs to point to the full path to where your phpbb installation can be found, since it uses that path to find the phpbb config.php file and also build URL links to the forum..
