new ladder - can't log in
Submitted by jkn on Tue, 05/02/2008 - 10:52
Hi All
i'm trying out the PHP ladder and have installed it on my server, run through the installation instructions etc.
But I can't log in, either as administrator or as my normal 'member' login. The default password is not working.
This doesn't seem to be related to the issue I read on this forum about two attempts being necessary. No number of attempts seems to work.
One thought: I am using email addresses of the form 'me+squash@blah.co.uk', and 'me+squashadmin@blah.co.uk'. This is because I filter using the part after the '+' on my local email.
AFAIK this is a valid thing to do; might it be that the PHP is barfing on this?
Thanks for your thoughts.

Hi there Thanks - that
Hi there
Thanks - that looks worth chasing down.
I've been browsing the code myself, partly in a bid to learn PHP. One thing i'm puzzled about - where is the password() function defined? it doesn't seem (understandably) to be built into PHP, but I can't find a definition in any of the include files.
I have been using v0.7.9 (build 145).
