Description
The website I installed phpbbforum on is migrating to another server (windows to linux), we are currently testing the new server and when we tried to enable and point phpbbforum to the forums, it seems to break the login.
What happens is when we log into Drupal, it seems as though we did not log in, although it does register on the forums that our username was logged in, if only for a second maybe.

Hi, have you checked the "Session length" option in /admin/settings/phpbbforum, by defautl it should be set around 1440.
Kindest regards
Richard

The option for "Session length" seems to be no longer present in the 2.x-build. I did set a value (which was way too low, about 3600) in this setting, and it seems to be acting up now that I am using the 2.x-beta build.
Is there any way to change this setting? In MySQL, or in a settings file. I can't seem to be able to find it.

I had a similar issue with users being unable to log in on the Drupal side. Blanking the fields for phpBB cookie settings in the ACP did the trick.
