Hello,

i have the following troubles using Web Wiz:

I downloaded the current version and tried to login as administrator. But it didn't worked. So I started searching ...

The message displayed was, that security code was not enterd correct. I debuged the function "loginUser" and the result was, that SaveSessionItem didn't saved the Captcha Code in the session variabela SCS.

I modified CAPTCHA_image.asp and saved the code with Session("testSCS") - and the code was saved correct. But the Captcha code, stored with SaveSessionItem is not stored ...

Any ideas?

Web Wiz Forums does not store session vaibales in the ASP session, it stores the sessions in it's own session system which uses the database so Session("SCS") would always be empty.

Are you by any chance testing the forum on a localhost? I suspect that this is your issue as this can cause problems with the session being read back in. If you are using 'localhost' to connect to your forum try '127.0.0.1' instead or vice versa.
