*[Fixed 1.6.0] password_forgotten generates log file

Running "vanilla" v1.5.1 on localhost via XAMPP:

When I use the password_forgotten page, a log-file is generated with a number of the following entries:

[28-Sep-2012 15:19:25] PHP Warning:  sha1_file(/includes/configure.php) [<a href='function.sha1-file'>function.sha1-file</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\mywebsite\includes\functions\password_funcs.php on line 118

Please let me know what other information will be helpful.

Some changes were made in 1.5.1 to the password forgotten behavior. It now uses a different method of generating passwords. My test environment resides on a site root, so I did not notice this issue.

Try changing functions_password_funcs.php (starting at line 116):

  if (strlen($entropy) < 16)
  {
[B]     $entropy = sha1_file('/includes/configure.php');[/B]
    $entropy .= microtime() . mt_rand() . $seed;
    //echo "USING FALLBACK" . "<br>";
  }

To:

  if (strlen($entropy) < 16)
  {
[B]     $entropy = sha1_file(DIR_FS_CATALOG . DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'configure.php');[/B]
    $entropy .= microtime() . mt_rand() . $seed;
    //echo "USING FALLBACK" . "<br>";
  }

Let me know if this worked in your environment :)

Thanks, lhungil. I was so focused on the fact that it was a sha1_file call that I totally missed that the problem was actually a "missing" file. Your fix worked like a charm!

Thank You.
