Speaking of creating accounts...

Users can still apply for accounts and these are created correctly.

Had the same problem. The "lost_email_patch" did add an option 'send_reset_password' that is tested in the file manage_user_create_page.php to determine whether you need to specify an initial password or not. But manage_user_create.php does not check the same variable and always expects a password.

I attached a patch.

Thanks, but that didn't do the trick for me :(

Unfortunately I'm hung up by other stuff so I can't investigate any further atm.

I'm sure it's something trivial - but never the less does it need fixing :)

Thanks again for quick response

There appear to be some extraneous parameters for creating user accounts.

For sure it was my fault when I sent the diff files. It's an patch integration issue. Let me check the original source code of the patch.

I was planning on applying the following patch:

diff -u -r1.19 manage_user_create.php

--- manage_user_create.php      14 Aug 2004 15:26:20 -0000      1.19

fixed in CVS

I don't see the change in CVS HEAD.

The latest I can see is version 1.19 as of:

Tell me if I'm wrong on that account (I did "cvs update" at my local box and I browsed sf.net's CVS server "Current tag: HEAD")? I also tried to apply your 3-line patch, but that didn't make any difference. Same error occur:

"APPLICATION ERROR #200
A required parameter to this page was not found."

Thanks in advance for fixing this :)

There seems to be a long lag (hours) between the CVS commit and it showing up in the web front end. The commit made manage_user_create.php v1.20.

available on sf.net now...
