Can't create accounts

Nuke Soldier Joined: Jan 30, 2003 Posts: 34 Location: USA

When someone tries to create an account they are told their email address is already being used. This happens no matter what email address is entered. Any help is appreciated.

Analyzer is at www.outdoorscentral.com/analyze.php

I have contacted my server provider and they are in the process of upgrading php and mysql.

Most everything else is working, but just cannot create new accounts.

Thanks

please search the forums before making a post in the future. This has already been fixed.

i'll get ya a link if u want, but it'd probably be quicker to search for it urself

Fact is..I did search. But, the fix I found as shown below:

as for the new user bug, I found the fix on phpnuke.org.

in the same file, on line 79 change Code:
userCheck($username, $email);
to Code:
userCheck($username, $user_email);

Doesn't work for me. My index.php inside Your_Accounts has the line at 79

userCheck($username, $user_email);

We are still getting the message that the email address is already registered.

Is there another fix that I am missing here?

Thanks,
Bill

Hmm, I don't recall seeing the fix here. I'll have to try it myself. Sorry about that if it wasn't previously here.

Ah yes: http://nukecops.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=1063#1063

Now I wouldn't have found it unless I used "user_email" as the query. Wink

Zhen, are you having this problem also? I seem to have located a fix for all my problems, but this is a real problem for me. Trying to create accounts and having it tell us the email address is already registered regardless of which email address we enter, sort of puts up a large roadblock.

I tried the fix(es) shown here but it didn't work for me.

If anyone has something I could try I'm sure open to suggestions.

Thanks for helping a dummy like me understand some of this,

Actually I don't have that problem -- yet, I just referred to the algorithmic search.

AI, I'm running the 6.5beta6 with Fix pack 3 installed.

that's mildly odd, cause Fix Pack 3 had the fix for that problem in it. It's worked for everybody else.

Can you download the analyze file from our downloads section and upload it to the same directory as config.php so we can see if we can spot if anything looks wrong?

Thanks

Yes, www.outdoorscentral.com/analyze.php

As I pointed out in earlier threads I am getting warnings about PHP and mysql and my server provider is working to install the new versions for me. Perhaps this will fix everything.

I have Nuke 6.0 installed on the same server and have absolutely no problems whatever with it. Everything works on my 6.0.

Thanks for your input and help

I'd wait till ur host has upgraded ur PHP and MySQL versions before hazarding a guess as to what the problem might be if not them.

Especially if Nuke 6.0 works fine, and the fix fixes everything else.

A couple times I've seen that an upgrade has fixed some strange unexplainable problems. Do me a favor? Load up the 1.8x test analyzer from http://nukecops.com/anal.tar.gz and re-link it for us?

Hmm.. your dbuname is missing from your config.php file.
