Hi,

Trying to help someone with a new 2.0.15 installation. When a new user is registered, the email is sent okay, and then when the user activates the account, we get the message ...

=======
Selected account is already activated!
If the page does not automatically reload, please click here
=======

and then the URL has the activation key appended, and tries to redirect, and goes round and round and round, ... for ever.

There have been complete re-installations, and the same problem appears. We have applied the CVS mods, just in case that was the problem, see https://xoops.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=3323&com_id=31687&com_rootid=31660&#comment31687

Any clues ?

I thought this bug - http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xoops/XoopsCore/trunk/htdocs/include/checklogin.php?view=log

may fix it, because XOOPS is installed within a sub folder. Applied the new file (which seemed to be the same as the version from 2.0.15 anyway), but the problem still occurs.

I have applied Security Image (Catpcha) hack and automatic activation at the moment.

The message is coming from this define in /language/english/user.php

define('_US_ACONTACT','Selected account is already activated!');


and is displayed from user.php

if ($thisuser->getVar('actkey') != $actkey) {

        
redirect_header('index.php',5,_US_ACTKEYNOT);

    } else {

        if (
$thisuser->getVar('level') > ) {

            
redirect_header('user.php',5,_US_ACONTACT);

        } else {


I have compared an earlier version of user.php to the version included with 2.0.15, and found these differences ..

L59         } elseif ( $xoopsUser ) {


R59         } elseif ( !empty($_GET['xoops_redirect']) ) {
              
header('Location: '.$_GET['xoops_redirect']);
          } else {


the "left" side is the earlier version, so in version for 2.0.15, it has extra code for the redirect, which is the problem, the 'redirect' has the activation key/code in it, and keeps looping.

This version of user.php (# 630), which is included with XOOPS 2.0.15 is part of the branch, but not part of the core.

http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xoops/XoopsCore/branches/2.0.x/2.0.15/htdocs/user.php?revision=630&view=markup&pathrev=630

I don't know how the CVS all fits together, but version #2 of user.php is what is shown to be as part of the core for 2.0.15

Is this strange, I don't know ??

We might try the earlier version of user.php, and see if this problem still occurs.

This is a very embarrassing problem indeed.

It is the first encounter a user has with a new site.

It has been reported on Sept. 15, 2006.

Does anyone have any solutions?
