Staes Pulldown Menu

[kobra]

I tested the local server with a fresh install of Z1.3.1 and got the same login issues when creating an account without any mods installed.

If I understand this correctly, this is bothersome...a bone stock ZenCart from original fileset with no alterations on a fresh DB and still got the bad behaviour???

Have you triple checked the unpacked distro? I have this on my local and find that in the heat of some excercise that I inadvertantly grab a file that I know(or believe) to be pristine and promptly forget that I might have also saved the changes to my distro set...next time I use for an install woe is me...and I just don't learn...

Bothersome is a bit of an under statement. You should have heard me swearing at the computer earlier. I was taken with rage like a scene from Fawlty Towers. Even threatened to thrash it with a wet tissue - all to no avail.

Nope - this is a fresh download of the stock install for ZC. It simply refuses to log in when I create an account. But to satisfy myself I am uploading the installation to the UNIX box and starting over with it.

Don't you just love it when you have everything set up nicely and it falls over for no reason - damn - I love this job :)

I will let you know if the new install works - most likely I have missed out a ; somewhere on a file and this will be the problem LOL

Well that did not work. Stock install of ZC and no products. Create an account and exactly the same problems.

But The email is actually getting sent despite displaying the error message in the browser.

So, it is not any of the add-ons. The only changes are the template mods (which don't include the create account page yet) and the Sales Report 1.4.

Sidebox Login Mod - installed
Sales Report 1.4 Installed
Column Grid Layout Installed

Added UK config for towns and villages modded from the UKTemplate Mod.

Other than this - stock install.

Aw NUTZ!

Quick update on this problem. The email verification error message still persists and is still unsolved I am afraid. I have managed to whittle down potential causes. Initially I thought it was a problem with the Date of Birth fields being changed but having spent all day reworking the code (and trying to use the pull-down menu mod which kept throwing a javascript error no matter what I did), I can say this is not the date of birth chanegs causing the problem.

At this stage I don't think it is a bug in Zencart either. I "suspect" it is a server configuration issue - open basedir problem to be precise. I will be able to verify this sometome tomorrow once I have chatted to the web host.

Two things are bugging me.

1) The DOB issue when trying to use the pulldown menu mod always throws a javascript error and I don't understand why. (Yes I can turn this off but that does not tell me why it does not work. Anyone who wants a copy of the code changes I made is welcome to have a peek.

2) The States Pull down menu is still showing as a form field instead of a pull-down when the account page loads. It should be a pull-down and I cannot find anywhere to make changes so this appears instead of the form field.

Suggestions most welcome. I am running out of ideas.

Update This is not a problem with openbasedir restrictions.

After account creation, the user gets presented with this message but the email is still sent:

Warning: strstr() [function.strstr]: Empty delimiter. in /home/assfash/public_html/shop/includes/functions/functions_email.php on line 91

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/assfash/public_html/shop/includes/functions/functions_email.php:91) in /home/assfash/public_html/shop/includes/functions/functions_general.php on line 41


assuming they even bother to get past the States Pulldown Menu issue, they then get the above message.

Since nobody has any clue on this and I cannot figure it out I will post a bug report in the Bugs Forum in the hope one of the Zencart Dev Team can respond.
