Same for me as well.

New Users go through the process. Get to the link confirmation page, click the finish form button and the resulting page reports "_ERROR". Nothing more, nothing less. And this same thing happens on two, possibly more, of my sites.

I have most of today to dive into this problem. If I find a solution, I will let you know what it is.

Silly fix.

On line 140 of file [root]/Your_Account/index.php, you will see the following line :

Code:

if(!$result) {

Change it to

Code:

if(!$db) {

The variable $result is not used. At least as far as I can see. But, the variable $db is used to pass the new user info to the $user_prefix_users_temp table. Without knowing too much about the Nuke db layer, I would assume the $db would return a true value if the query was a success. Anyway, change the code and test it out. This worked for me. Should work for you.

Can you browse your database? If so, is the user in the $XXX_users_temp
table?

Also, can you check your prefix setting in your config.php file? The first error thrown would have been because the user's temp info was not entered into the database. If the site could not find the users_temp table, you probably would not have even made it this far. Because you can, I would start to suspect the "activate" function is not finding the proper database table.

BTW : Is there now a "Trevor" listed in your users_temp table? There should be. And, I like your site. You should check out my Gothic Portal at http://www.gothicplanet.com . Smile
