Hi!

I've been sitting for hours to get the 6 digit confirmation at registration numbers to work. By some strange reason only like 2 or 3 digits show's up and the rest gets a error image. Why so?

And is there any way to remove the Confirmation feature from the register section? I feel that it's not really neccassary for my forum.

Thanks!

The security image part can not be dropped without editing a significant part of the code.

It sounds like if only a few of the images are showing that for some reason your server is dropping the session before all the images can be displayed.

If you have other ASP pages on your site make sure they are not using the session.abandon method to drop the ASP session, things that often have this are Chat Room applications.

It maybe best to run the forum in it's own web application, the simplest way to do this is to setup a sub-domain for your forum to run in.

On the oter hand it could be a corrupted file, so try reuploading files again.

Thank you!

I've removed the confirmation pictures now. But i still get other errors on the forum. At a new user registration i get the error message

"Sorry, only members with sufficient permission can access this page.

A security error has occurred with authentication.
Please ensure that all cookies are enabled on your web browser, and you are not using a saved or cached copy of the page."

Try it yourself : http://www.ljusare.se/forum

What's this about?. I have turned my IE to allow all cookies and cleared all the cachefiles but i still get this message. Can it be somekind of serverproblem?. I have a remote host so i can't change any of the settings for the server.


Thank you for your help!

It looks like for some reason your site can not correctly set and read back in cookies.

This is a common problem and there are lots of posts covering this issue if you do a search for cookies.

URL/IP/domain etc. masking is one reason that prevents cookies being stored correctly.

Looking at my cookie cach for your site it seems that you site is resetting the ASP session every few seconds.

This is where you problem lies, either there is a server problem, or as I mentioned in my previous post to you, an ASP application on your site is using session.abandon.

If you don't have other applications running on your site, contact your web host over trhis issue.

CuteFTP is a good program, I personally prefer flashFXP for uploading using FTP.

Hi, Well I know this is cover a lot of times in many areas of the forum. But I download thelates version of WebWiz the server where the forum is, have the lates MDAC and I still have the problem of the same X error instead of the numbers. I try all the subgestions and workaround you mention in the forum and in other topics and nothing.

Maybe in future versions of WebWiz on the Adminstrator menu can add a funtion that enable and dissable this. I hope anyone can help me or give a new idea to resolve this problem.
