hi, yes if users are not added there is a problem with database connection than.
Is your phpBB 3.1> ?

While phpBB users are added on fly at any time, when you start integration OLD WP users need to be transferred into phpBB because if not, when they login WP and aren't existent into phpBB, the session is not created and the plugin logout you. This the reason of what you experience.

2 reasons apparently: 1 phpBB isn't 3.1 or better, or your db connection data are wrong, if you are using the custom config.php file?

Can't Login via Wordpress

Hi,

It seems that after using the plugin I can't login from wordpress.
Everytime I tried to log in using wp-admin / wp-login, it accepts my username & password, but fails to create a session for me
The only way I can access my admin account on wordpress is to log-in at my phpBB forum and then switch to wordpress.

However there's one more problem, registered users also were not added to the forum (even using transfer, it says users transferred, but there's no wordpress user on the forum acp)
Is it the DB connection failing?
