SSO proxy issues, browser stuck in a loop

chrispyfur

Hi all!

I've been trying all day to get this single signon working but whenever I enable it, The whole /forum section of the site (latest vanilla build) just freezes and gets stuck in a loop.

My website is here:

http://dev.cyclexchange.co.uk
I've made a test login which is not present in vanilla, vanilla just has an admin login set.
user 123@123.com
password 123

On my website, I've got:

1. On login in , I set a cookie:
setcookie('VanillaProxy', $_COOKIE['PHPSESSID'], time()+3600, '/', '.cyclexchange.co.uk');

2. I've got an authentication script which outputs the following:

UniqueID=218
Name=123
Email=123@123.com

And vanilla is setup with the relevant proxy configuration in the plugins area, all the URL's are set to FDQN's

for example, my user details script is set to:
http://dev.cyclexchange.co.uk/account/forum_authentication.php

My cookie domain is set to .cyclexchange.co.uk.

Now if I login to my website, I can see the authentication script is setting the right values and if I debug the cookies i get:
Array
(
[PHPSESSID] => bmlif7j4ncc25vvrumn2ug35l2
[VanillaProxy] => bmlif7j4ncc25vvrumn2ug35l2
)

But as soon as I go to the forum, the whole browser gets stuck on "waiting for dev.cyclexchange.co.uk.


Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong!?!

Thanks!

Chris.

I had the same issue. Try to upgrade to at least Vanilla 2.0.9 and ProxyConnect 1.8. This solved the problem for me.
