Message: Registration Error

Doulos · Posted: Tue Mar 27, 2007 7:41 pm

When registering, users are getting this message after clicking the "Finish" button on the "New User Registration: Final Step" page:

Registration Error

gfx_chk = 0; and Enable Visual Confirmation (in forums) is set to 'No' (I tried both of these the other way as well as requiring user activation)

I have checked all the files in the main nuke folder, as well as all the files in these folders - admin, Your Account, Forums, Groups. All files are identical to the ones in the RN2.10 package I unpacked.

Registration works perfect on my local fresh install of RN210, but not on the local or production sites that were upgraded from RN20202. (I did not try a new registration on the upgraded test site before running rndb_upgrade.php on my old 20202 db. Once it seemed to have worked , I went ahead and upgraded the prod site also.)

I then tried not requiring activation and that still sends users through the email activation process.

All the tables in the db are the same as RN210, so I REALLY hope I am not going to have to go through every table on my db to see if some field or other didn't get upgraded correctly.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I am at a loss as to what is causing this

i just tried it and yep is a bit weird....
but i think you messed it up a bit...
but we have no way of knowing what you did..
to solve this a full login is recommended...

What are you using to do this? Are you using a hack, or MOD, like CNBYA, or AM?

The issue is with your _users_temp table (not sure what your prefix is). I am guessing this based on where that language define is being used and its in the FinishNewUser function.

Check your table structure to make sure it matches this:

Code:

`user_id` int(10) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`username` varchar(25) collate latin1_general_ci NOT NULL default '',
`user_email` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci NOT NULL default '',
`user_password` varchar(40) collate latin1_general_ci NOT NULL default '',
`user_regdate` varchar(20) collate latin1_general_ci NOT NULL default '',
`check_num` varchar(50) collate latin1_general_ci NOT NULL default '',
`time` varchar(14) collate latin1_general_ci NOT NULL default '',
`requestor` varchar(25) collate latin1_general_ci NOT NULL default '',

well i was busy with Ezekiel yesterday.
he uses cnbya and i tried to explain him that he has to set the user configuration of that , but he didnt understood what i was talking about.
thing yesterday was,if the size of security code wasnt set or whatever the login will never work..
but that was yesterday..

Sure wish folks would tell us when they are using something other than the core RavenNuke(tm) files! Evil or Very Mad

some like to use cnbya.
i tried it yesterday with current RN and works without any problems...
so why Ezekiel has problems with it i dont know.

Doulos · Posted: Wed Mar 28, 2007 12:18 pm

I am not using cnbya, I tried installing cnbya, but couldn't get it working in the time I had available so I reinstalled the rn20202 Your_Account files over the top ( I thought that I reversed the cnbya install completely but I may have missed something). This was all before the upgrade to rn210. Registrations, logons (with or without gfx code), everything worked fine - before upgrade. I work 12-14 hours a day so I don't have much time to fix things when I mess up.

I will not take anymore of your time until I have made a more complete check of my files and db tables. I will report back when I know something more.

Thanks
E

thats nice, are interested to see what you've done....

Doulos · Posted: Wed Mar 28, 2007 1:39 pm

Hitwalker and Montego, thanks very much for all your time and help. I began going through the db table by table and decided I didn't have time for that right now - I need sleep. So I decided to skip to the bottom and look at the nuke_users_temp table as suggested by Montego. Bingo !!! It still had 24 extra entries ("custom1" - "custom24"). I deleted these and all is well with new user registrations.

Thanks again.
E

I am also having the registration problem. I did no mods just upgraded form the 2.2*** to the 2.10 Once I get to putting in the keycode and hit finish I get the Registration Error!
Not sure what is wrong. Now if I setup a brand spanking new installation of the 2.10 works fine. Seems to be an issue with the upgrade. And I did run the rndb_upgrade.php to upgrade the tables.

After looking at what was posted above at the tables. I added this into the
nuke_users_temp.

It was missing this line
`requestor` varchar(25) collate latin1_general_ci NOT NULL default '',
After I added that line works great now!!!!!

Yeah, I had this problem as well. Is it something to do with the update scripts not putting the field in there?

Exactly same problem, exactly same fix. Thanks guys.

I'll have to look back through our notes to figure out why we commented it out. There was a reason...

Hello guys, Wave

this solved it for me too and i'm using only your files( hum, well i updated the old) Shocked

So if there was a reason not to use this line then i don't know what i let myself in for for using it.....

But thanks for this fix

montego · Posted: Fri Apr 13, 2007 6:34 am

quattro, hey, like I said, there was a reason... doesn't mean it was a good one.

ROTFL

Still have not had a chance to look it up, but it is on my list.

Ok, I have researched the "requestor" issue and have found that it comes from the Resend Email hack that was added as a part of the 2.10.00 release. In the HowToInstall manual, the following step addresses this:

Quote:

7. Add Resend Email Tables - This is an add-on from Raven and it is required. Use the same installSQL.php script noted above and execute Step 2 ONLY (make sure it says "Resend Email" on it!).

So, it just looks like you missed a step in the upgrade process is all.
