SID-00671: Cannot create a new user

Status:	Unanswered	TWiki version:	4.3.2	Perl version:	5.8.8-14.10
Category:	CategoryRegistration	Server OS:	SLES 10 sp2 Linux	Last update:	16 years ago

When a new user tries to register, they receive an email with a link. When they click on the link it, they end up actually going to http://192.168.xx.x/twiki/bin/oops/Main/WebHome?action=verify;code=xxxxxx.nnnnnnnnn;template=oopsattention;def=post_method_only;param1=register;template=oopsattention;def=post_method_only;param1=register, which only says "Attention". A matching file is placed in working\registration_approvals, but nothing happens. If they enter the code manually, it takes them to the same screen as above.

This happened after upgrading from 4.3.0 to 4.3.2

Discussion and Answer

Hi - upgrade your {TWIKI_ROOT}/templates/registerconfirm.tmpl or similar template for your skin.

In the latest versions of TWiki, only "post" methods are allowed whenever topics created/saved, whenever users are created.

Sorry, guess I wasn't clear. The link in the email says http://192.168.xx.x/twiki/bin/register?action=verify;code=xxxxxx.xxxxxxxxx, but when you click on that link it takes you to that other oops page.

What comes in the email, does match /templates/registerconfirm.tmpl

Thanks
