The recovery link sent to the user by email will not redirect you to the right page. Instead it comes up as a broken page. This should redirect you to the forgot password page inputting the token and user ID.

    I believe it is the problem with the link and where EdRepo is located. I will look into this and do some testing to see if I can get it to work with a full path given from the program rather than manually adding the path.

    Hi Chris,

    Good that you're logging all these - we need the records. I'd encourage you to think in terms of providing more context for each item. As a cold reader, I'm not sure where in the system you're working. I can guess that this is password recovery based on the second part of the description, but it would help more if that was in the title. e.g., something like "Lost password recovery link is broken" as a title. That would help someone browsing titles much more. Part of the key to creating good documentation is to always be thinking of your audience and what they need to know.

    Good work.

    GH.

    Fixed at Revision 304: I changed the code in the config files to represent the current directories. I was correct in saying the problem was where EdRepo was located. Originally EdRepo was only getting the base URL from /edrepo/ which was hard-coded into the system. I changed it so it would get the base URL from where ever it was installed. This allows the proper link to be sent when resetting the password.
