New User Activation Error

New Member Joined: Nov 03, 2008 Posts: 14

I'm running a fresh install of RN 2.51 and during testing the site I'm not able to register a new user with email activation successfully.

After registration the email is sent out and this is what I get.

Welcome to $sitename!

You or someone else has used your email account(don@ufclansite.net) to register an account at United Forces

To finish the registration process you should visit the following link in the next 24 hours to activate your user account, otherwise the information will be automatically deleted by the system and you should apply again:
[ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

Following is the member information:

-Nickname:Test
-Password:XXXXXXX

After clicking the link the activation fails wit this error...

New User Activation Error

Please be sure all entered information is correct or apply for a new account here.

Any help you can provide would be great!

Thanks

Edit: Oh and I changed the numbers to XXXX. the email didnt come that way. Smile

I found the problem

If you look at the link in the email [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]amp;check_num=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

There is an amp; after the Test& and before the check_num

Test&check_num

I removed the amp; and used that and the registration completed.

I'm going to look through the scripts to see if I can find where that's coming from. If you know please post it.

It seems you have found a typo-bug in the Recend_Email module because only there is the wrong typed activation link.

open modules/Recend_Email/index.php and find:

php Code:

$finishlink = $nukeurl.'/modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=activate&username='.$username.'&amp;check_num='.$check_num;

change it to:

php Code:

$finishlink = $nukeurl.'/modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=activate&username='.$username.'&check_num='.$check_num;

This issue exist in RavenNuke 2.5.0 and 2.5.1!

In modules/Your_Account/public/new_finish.php is it correct:

php Code:

$message .= _TOFINISHUSER . "\r\n\r\n" . $nukeurl . '/modules.php?name=' . $module_name . '&op=activate&username=' . $ya_username . '&check_num=' . $check_num . "\r\n\r\n";

Thank u neralex. I was looking at yesterday night on "Your_Account" module but I coudn't find anything. I never thought it was gonna be in "Resend_Email". Good!

Looking further on line 171:

Code:

$finishlink = '<a href="'.$nukeurl.'/modules.php?name=Your_Account&amp;op=activate&amp;username='."$username".'&amp;check_num='.$check_num.'" target="_blank">'.$nukeurl.'/modules.php?name=Your_Account&amp;op=activate&amp;username='."$username".'&amp;check_num='.$check_num.'</a>';

Should we correct this one as well neralex?
