SID-00202: Problem Adding UserId to password System

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	4.2.4	Perl version:	v.5.10
Category:	CategoryAuthentication	Server OS:	Redhat Linux 9.0	Last update:	15 years ago

Hi,

I managed to get Twiki up and running onto my server Did the intial config alright, now i am having problems registering users. I get this error when registering users :

There has been a problem adding your user id to the Password system.

This seems kinda ambigious to me as it does not specifically tell me whats exactly is wrong with the password system.

Any ideas on how to get this fixed? Or are there any logs i could see to check out whats wrong? Check the webserver error_logs, no indication of anything wrong.

Thanks in advance!

Discussion and Answer

Update: Now it is not able to register new users, it says that the admin (me) has disabled new user registration.

How is that possible when i check within the config page and Localsite.cfg is $TWiki::cfg{Register}{EnableNewUserRegistration} = 1; ?

What am i doing wrong?

Help Really need. Thanks

Check SettingFileAccessRightsLinuxUnix. Also check in configure that {UserMappingManager} is in TWikiUserMapping. Logs and warns are in .../twiki/data

if you are using path like below (across your configuration i.e space removed in the path) C:/Progra~2/Apache~1/Apache2.2/ in configuration then

then remove "~" from the namefilter ([\s\*?^\$@%`"'&;|<>\[\]\x00-\x1f]) using twiki configure

OR

(
remove the above mention character from LocalSite.cfg
$TWiki::cfg{NameFilter} = '[\\s\\*?^\\$@%`"\'&;|<>\\[\\]\\x00-\\x1f]';
)
