Joomla-SMF Not Logging In

I have installed, Joomla 1.0.12, CB 1.0.2, SMF Bridge 2.0.2.1 from joomlahacks,

Seems that everything "appears" to be installed correctly but not working properly.

SMF Table Prefix is correct, SMF Forum installed on the same db, Patch Joomla Source Files, Patch SMF source File, when i click on Sync usernames or sync realnames i get the following,

Joomla/Mambo[0] / SMF[0] inserted Failed :smile-always : Failed : Please enter a valid Username:. No spaces, more than 2 characters and contain 0-9,a-z,A-Z /home/frumspac/public_html/frumia.com/ad
