It really bugs me.

I have a big site that is accessed on a daily basis by ~ 100 people. I have in my db around 2000+ pictures and the site is doing great.

The problem I have is the activation link "thing". In my case it sends the activation link with the XOOPS_URL (http://allcrews.mielus.ro) doubled, like this:

http://allcrews.mielus.rohttp://allcrews.mielus.ro/modules/profile/activate.php?op=actv&id=21&actkey=1f1774fa

I noticed the site didn't get any new subscriptions about the time I upgraded from 2.2.2 to 2.2.3.

I know users registered since I have them through my inactive users (in XOOOPS' admin). I also got emails from ppl telling me that they didn't receive the activation link corectly so they aren't able to login and post in forums / add links or whatever ...

I read in the forums people who upgraded to 2.2.3 have the same problem like me but I didn't find a sollution (not in the forum and not by myself either, even thou I did try).

Did someone solved this mistery?
If not I hope it will be a patch or something really soon.

Thanks,
Alex

PS: Not only my users! I got frustrated, too, when I tried to test if the activation link is sent properly

First job for the beta testing team, until we get the infrastructure finalised:

Could you try replacing
if (!strpos(XOOPS_URL, "http")) {
        //Relative URL used, calculate absolute URL
        $protocol = strtolower(substr($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'], 0, strpos($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'], "/", 0)));
        define("XOOPS_ABS_URL", $protocol."://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].XOOPS_URL);
    }
    else {
        define("XOOPS_ABS_URL", XOOPS_URL);
    }

with
if (strpos(XOOPS_URL, "http") === 0) {
        define("XOOPS_ABS_URL", XOOPS_URL);
    }
    else {
        //Relative URL used, calculate absolute URL
        $protocol = strtolower(substr($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'], 0, strpos($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'], "/", 0)));
        define("XOOPS_ABS_URL", $protocol."://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].XOOPS_URL);
    }

in include/common.php (around lines 119-126)

Then see if it fixes the activation link as well as other links in emails.

Thanks


Hope this helps.

Thanks, JMorris!

That did the trick!!

One other thing. When a user logs in for the first time after activation (admin activation in this case),
they see the following:

_US_ACTVMAILOK

kapeman,

I believe you may have stumbled into a bug. I'm verifying it now.

Best Regards,

I'm not sure if this is related or not, but when I tested the activation link, the activation success page displayed duplicate Login and Main Menu blocks.

PHP Debug Output only refers to the aforementioned bug:
Notice [PHP]: Use of undefined constant _US_YOURACCOUNT - assumed '_US_YOURACCOUNT' in file modules/profile/activate.php line 71
Notice [PHP]: Use of undefined constant _US_ACTVMAILOK - assumed '_US_ACTVMAILOK' in file modules/profile/activate.php line 76

I am having the problem that mails are not send at all. When I register a user everything works fine, but the activation email is not sent. PHP Debug gives no error messages.
When I want to send an email to users through the Admin Panel it doesn't work too.
I tried PHP Mail() and sendmail, with no luck. Any ideas?

Me too!
I made a fresh install of version 2.2.3.
When registering a user the activation mail is not sent due to an error.
But I do get the information mail that a new user has registered.
When sending the avtivation key manually from the admin panel it also works - so I guess the mail settings are ok (using SMTPauth with the appropriate Username and password)

Can someone help?

Thanx

I forgot!

I am running my own mailserver and there is not even a rejecting notice in the log. Seem that the activation mail did not reach the mail server???
