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

Hi Reini, I was able to confirm that file permissions are not the issue for the particular file where the passwords are stored. To verify this, I changed ownership and permissions to exclude apache, then confirmed that I cannot even login (as expected). So then I put permission back on the password containing file so that apach= e is allowed. Now I can log in (as expected) but I cannot run that preferece= s page to change password for my hand-created users in the password file. I get the same errors as shown in the first email. Could it possibly be the missing $_filename variable that you had mentioned below causing the stream open failure? Here are two more clues I can provide by doing some more testing. 1) if I don't modify password, but just change the email, I see this error at the bottom of page lib/WikiUserNew.php (In template 'body' < 'html'):1116: Notice[8]: Undefine= d property: _FilePassUser::$_HomePagehandle 2) if I click my loginName at the bottom where it says authenticated as SomeUser, to make a homepage for that account I get this error. Could you tell me what directory the mkdir context was likely to be in this situation so I can check and see why mkdir would have failed? (for now I have collected all the writeable directories that I knew about [wiki pages -- file db, session state] into one subdir and changed to apach= e ownership and put 777 permissions just to avoid perm problems) PHP Warning lib/pear/Cache/Container/file.php:339: Warning[2]: mkdir() [<a href=3D' function.mkdir'>function.mkdir</a>]: Permission denied [image: Valid XHTML 1.0!] <http://validator.w3.org/check/referer> [image= : Valid CSS!] <http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/check/referer> Page Execution took real: 0.605, user: 0.580, sys: 0.030 seconds, Memory: 13544944 lib/plugin/Imdb.php:50: Warning[2]: main(themes/film/lib/imdb.php) [<a href=3D'function.main'>function.main</a>]: failed to open stream: No such f= ile or directory lib/Request.php:436: Notice[8]: Undefined property: Request_AccessLog::$logtable On 3/6/06, Reini Urban <ru...@x-...> wrote: > > joel schaubert schrieb: > > I am learning how to setup phpwiki to require and manage passwords. > > My settings are to have phpwiki manage the passwords in a file, no bogo > > login, require passwords for any edits but allow viewing. > > > > This is working well, I add new users and passwords with either > > htpasswd, or I use the > > passencrypt.php page shipped with phpwiki and then cut and paste into m= y > > passwords file.
