Account validation issue.

Guest

Well, its proberly something simple which I've missed somewhere, but absolutely EVERYTHING works fine, up untill someone tries to validate their account, they click the link and get a "db.php line 88" error, I saw that was to do with database information being wrong, but, its all correct, everything else, aboslutely everything else on the site works fine, could someone tell me what I'm missing here? Thanks in advance.

How evil of me, I forgot to tell you what version I'm using, sorry.

I'm using 7.5 with the "No mail YA hack" (if thats whats doing it just tell me I'll go set up an smtp server, just didn't want to use one when it was un-nessecary.

If you are using "No mail YA hack" then their should not be a validation email. They will be automatically a member upon sign up. Make sure you make the correct install of the hack, also make sure it works with your version of Nuke.

Thats all done, its the same either way, when someone clicks the validation link it brings up the db.php line 88 error, and its the version of that hack for 7.5.

Do you mind posting a link to your site so i can take a closer look. If you don't want it public then PM the link to me.

Hi, I see the problem. I signed up to your site and when it came to the validate link you are missing the main directory folder from the link that your nuke is installed "Website". This is the link for Validate

You need to either check to make sure the site url in in Nuke admin contains the "Website" at the end or edit the index.php in the Your_Account module and include the correct link.

I guess I was looking way too hard for the problem, so hard I didn't even notice that... After reading it on other posts, I feel rather stupid now, thanks for your help, I'll try that now.

I assume here it means EDIT /modules/Your_Account/index.php file
I thought that changing in the preferences would right to the db not to that file.

Only use that method if the link was hardcoded in the Your_Account module. I think just changing the url in the preferences should be enough.
