PP5-New Install- Register Problems- no Integration

dimensions · March 3rd, 2005, 07:51 PM

Hi all,
I have just upgraded from pp4.2 to pp4.8 a week ago. ...no problems running a New Installation.
However when I installed pp5 yesterday, doing a new installation, I could not log in the admin. I checked the database in phpmyadmin and could see that I was recognized as a user, but i noticed that my password was not encoded. I reset my password through .../member.php?ppaction=forgot link. This password was encoded in the database column and And now i can login.

I am now having problems with registering as a new user. I keep gettiing this error:The password does not match the password verification field. But it does believe me. I have tried dozens of times. The last time I tried I encountered this error:
Warning: main( .../languages/english/english.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in .../register.php on line 287
and
Warning: main(): Failed opening '/.../languages/english/english.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in .../register.php on line 287
And it verified my registration. Sending me this email with no link
Thanks for registering at .

Is this a cookie issue?

I am running PP solo...no integration.

Any help would be appreciated
thanks

It is a browser password cache issue I would think.

I have had this happen on one brower and I open another type since I have 3 types of browsers and it would work. Always comes down to a cache issue

thanks for your reply

I tried Mozilla Firefox 1.0, IE 6, Nav 7.1. Same error. No luck

Warning: main( .../languages/english/english.php

I created a subfolder to languages called english and copied english.php to it. working just fine now. No more Warnings or blank emails.

I still cannot register as a new user or log in as another user if i have cookies stored. Is this normal?

thanks again

Hi..

I would completely clear all cookies and cache, hopefully will solve this matter.

What is your path set to in admin config where it is looking for the program files?

... definately looks off to me

I am experiencing the exact same issue. I am trying to run with PPs registration system and if I log off the admin, then I am out of luck getting back on, and no one else can register because it says the passwords don't match.

I posted this in another thread

Still errors upgrade to version 5

I am still having the problem with:
The password does not match the password verification field.

Chuck S · March 5th, 2005, 08:45 PM

Thats a cache issue with your browser. Clear cache and cookies

filipv · March 13th, 2005, 11:33 AM

I have cleared the cache and the cookies and still have the same error that the user pasword does not match, during the registration process

Chuck S · March 13th, 2005, 11:57 AM

try another browser or clear any saved password history for the browser. Your browser is autofilling in another entry.

Our coding is pretty absolute in this regard

if ($password != $passwordconfirm) $reason .= "<li>The password does not match the password verification field.";

If they do not match this message appears so they can not be the same. Once your cookies cache and saved password for the site is removed from browser settings you should be fine.

Could the problem have something to do with the fact that PP generates a "password" cookie that is never cleared?

You can see for yourself by logging in pp with any account that works and then logging out. Next go to the login screen and click on the login problems link. You should now see a "password" cookie containing the password of the last login.

I believe that the cookie is interfering with the password that is used at login. I also believe that it is part of the problem with people being unable to access private albums as well.

We dont generate any cookies named password with our product. Thats a browser setting

Any cookies we set in our product are clearly outlined in the forum integration file you are running under the function login.

I know what your talking about but that as stated is your browser saved passwords setting and yes it could wreac havok on your site.

Look at pp-inc.php line 47.

RIGHT THATS FOR THE album password but I see what your getting at. Its new for 5.0

Your saying and I follow you now that the on an internal install the user's password and the album password are conflicting.

LMer · March 13th, 2005, 02:50 PM

The issue also exists with PHPBB integration.

dhyatt · March 28th, 2005, 11:25 PM

AND VB3 integration.

Chuck S · March 29th, 2005, 01:18 PM

I dont think so

This was corrected with 5.02 the cat password is named something entirely different and no conflict
