[Phpwiki-talk] User creation

[Massimiliano P. <ma...@gm...>]

Hi,
    I have installed phpwiki 1.3.14 and I want to implement a private
wiki where all users need to authenticate before viewing/editing wiki
pages. Since I am using flat file as database I would like to employ
the "PersonalPage" method for authentication.

    The relevant part of the config.ini file is:

ALLOW_ANON_USER = false
ALLOW_ANON_EDIT = false
ALLOW_BOGO_LOGIN = false
ALLOW_USER_PASSWORDS = true
USER_AUTH_ORDER = "PersonalPage"
PASSWORD_LENGTH_MINIMUM = 6
USER_AUTH_POLICY = stacked
ENABLE_USER_NEW = true

    Within administration tool I haven't found a "create-user"
section, so I create a "Max" page (for user Max) and then chowned it
to Max. When I try to login to page "Max" I get the following message:
_____

PHP Warning

Warning: "PersonalPage login method:"

* You stored an empty password in your 'Max' page.
* Your access permissions are only for a BogoUser.
* Please set a password in UserPreferences.

_____

    But I cannot access the UserPreferences with user Max.
    I tried to edit the page metadata and insert the password
manually, but the message is the same.
    What am I doing wrong? You can find my config.ini attached. Php is
v5.2.6 on xubuntu.

Thank you in advance
