Hi,

Using v11.01 (upgraded from v9.69)

Some users on my forum can't change their own password in the MEMBER CONTROL PANEL and can't login with the XMLHTTP login form.

After investigation it seem that member with special characters and spaces in their username can't do both.

If blnEncryptedPasswords Then
   strPassword = strPassword & rsCommon("Salt")
   strPassword = HashEncode(strPassword)
End If

For some reason , the HashEncode(strPassword) never return the same password as the one stored in the DB for the users with spaces or special char. , at least for the HTTPAPI.asp.

But theses users can login in the forum no problem, only issues are : changing password and login with the HTTPAPI.asp method LoginMemberCookie .


Any idea or solution ? 

Thanks
