Missing methods while integrating
 

I am trying to create an auto-login script off my non vb site.

If I just had this in a php file (site.com/test_vb5.php)

require_once('/home/public_html/forum/core/includes/init.php');
require_once('/home/public_html/forum/core/includes/functions_login.php');
require_once('/home/public_html/forum/core/vb/user.php');

$username = "someusername";
$password = "md5password";

$auth = vB_User::verifyAuthentication($username, null, $password, null);

if ($auth) {
$res = vB_User::processNewLogin($auth, $logintype);
vbsetcookie('sessionhash', $res['sessionhash'], false, false, true);
}

it works great.

the problem is when I add this to my php file outside of vb (ssite.com/login.php)

that's when I get

Fatal error: Class 'vB_Request_Web' not found in /home/public_html/forum/core/includes/init.php on line 38

Fatal error: Call to undefined method vB_Shutdown::instance() in /home/public_html/forum/core/vb/vb.php on line 454

if I kept including files that had all the methods they were missing, I'd get a blank page. If i deleted everything but vb.php I get Fatal error: Class 'vB' not found in /home/public_html/forum/core/vb/user.php on line 293 and so on. even getting Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/public_html/login.php:45) in /home/public_html/login.php on line 46

my config file has the correct forum path as well $config['Misc']['forumpath'] = '/home/public_html/forum';

why does it work standalone but not when I add this to my other php files? why's it only missing certain methods this way and not the other?

David Grove just published an article on how to do this on the .com. Here's a link.
