Question

When I'm using BulkRegistration to register new users, the program adds the new users to the TWikiUsers list and the users appear also in the .htpasswd file but it doesn't create the respective UserTopics which are necessary for BulkResetPassword (without a UserTopic the new users do not appear in the password reset list).

Strangely, after clicking the button "Bulk register these people", I get a page without content (only the TWiki logos, frame elemenst, etc.) but there is no error message or warning.

When I created the user topics manually, the rest of the registration process seemed to work fine.

The problem only appeared after an upgrade to version 4.1.2 (the previous version was 4.0.5 and worked fine).

What could be the reason?

ALERT! If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

Is there anything in the error logs?

Does TWikiRegistrationAgent has the permission to change the Main web? Perhaps you have set the CHANGE permission in Main web to TWikiAdminGroup only?

You are right. The TWikiRegistrationAgent actually didn't have the permission to change the Main web. I changed that and tried it out and everything works fine now. Thank you very much! smile
