Bug: Change Password does not work on Win2K
Thanks to your work, registering and password do now work on
Win2K with Apache. But you can't change or reset your password on
Win2K.
I fixed the
bin/passwd
perl script. See Fix record.
Test case
- Install TWikiRelease01Sep2001 on the configuration given below
- Register a user
- login, everything works fine
- go to
TWiki.ChangePassword
and change your password
- password is still unchanged
Fix record
I had to add some code from
bin/register
to
bin/passwd
. There is just no code to handle SHA1-passwords in
bin/passwd
The new script is attached to the report.
I have never programmed perl before, so please do not expect clean and bugfree code

Thanks for the fixes - your code looks fine to me anyway :)... I've committed this to CVS for the
TWikiAlphaRelease. I made one change to use 'require' instead of 'use', so that the conditional code is executed only at run time, avoiding problems on Linux/Unix.
I have also fixed the
ChangePassword page here on TWiki.org, which was pointing to MAINWEB, causing the OK button to break.
