Hello,

It had been a while since I messed with WWF, but I wanted to downgrade from my Invision Portal to standard WWF. Essentially all I did was download the entire site, the upload a fresh WWF site. I didn't mess with the SQL tables at all.

The forum seems to have retained its categories and posts, but registration is having issues. In some cases, the security images don't work, or partially work. Even if someone is successfully able to get through the registration process, upon attempting to login, they get the standard "Sorry, only members with sufficient permission can access this page" error.

Does anyone have any hints for me? Would you have a look at the site and see if you see anything glaringly wrong?

I will have a look and see if all of the security images made it to the site...

Thanks!!

Chris

this error would look to be session dropping.

is the website on a Windows 2003 box?

it looks like the sessions are being dropped to quick and the security images aren't being created correctly.

check if this is the case, also one method is setting the session time out higher, trhat has been reported to help a bit.

i would say its related to this not the portal.
