Hello,
I have successfully installed a mod that I found on JPDeni's web site for Secure Password Lookup. The mod seems to work well in all aspects but one.

When I am presented with the login page, I am shown a link which would apparently allow a new password to be mailed to out if the user had forgotten theirs. However, when I press that hyper-link the script directs me back to the exact same login page.

The code that runs this particular function is found in the html.pl script:


It appears that the code is mean to direct the user to the "sub html_lookup_form". But for some reason, that page never loads.

What I think is occuring is that somewhere there is an authorization check that is sending me back to the login form. After much searching, however, I was unable to find the code that would be causing this error.

I kindly ask for anyones help in this matter, as I have very little desire to re-install this mod again. I will be working on this error untill it is fixed, so I will respond to your posts as soon as I get them.

Thank you.

Well that depends what the meaning of "is" is...

Hmm...That is the correct link. Could you please save your default.cfg, html.pl, and db.cgi files as text files (like default.txt, html.txt, db.txt), and then save them to your server, and then post the URL where we can find the files, so we can look at them.

Regards,

I have gone through and replaced the entire email mod, and I think that has done the trick.

I appreciate your help!

First, let me say I love your db setup! The graphics really make it different! Second, I can't read the language but that's ok, the links are still in english . Here is what I have found which should fix the problem:

These lines:
should go right BEFORE:

So your code will look like this:

I haven't looked at the rest of the mod installation yet but go ahead and try this. The way you have it right now, it is in the wrong part of the IF statement so it never finds elsif ($in{'lookup_form'}) to send you to the E-Mail New Password page.

Hope this helps,
AJ
