Re: [Phpwiki-talk] Trouble when changing a password.

[joel s. <fox...@gm...>]

I think I see what you mean.
Near line 933 in file WikiUserNew.php when the new instance of _FilePassUse=
r
is being created, a third parameter to the constructor line 20 of
File.phpis not being pased in.

constructor
    function _FilePassUser($UserName=3D'', $prefs=3Dfalse, $file=3D'') {

line 933 of WikiUserNew.php....

                    } elseif (in_array('File',
$dbh->getAuthParam('USER_AUTH_ORDER')) and
                              defined('AUTH_USER_FILE') and
file_exists(AUTH_USER_FILE)) {
                        include_once("lib/WikiUser/File.php");
                        if (check_php_version(5))
                            return new _FilePassUser($UserName,
$this->_prefs);
                        else {
                            $user =3D new _FilePassUser($UserName,
$this->_prefs);                            eval("\$this =3D \$user;");
                            // /*PHP5 patch*/$this =3D $user;
                            return $user;
                        }
                    } else {



If you could tell me how to reference the filename and pass it as the third
argument to return new _FilePassUser($UserName, $this->_prefs);
I could try that and test it and let you know if it fixes the issue.
