Changing Passwords

[johndo...@gmail.com]

Hi Samuli.

Another two Questions:

- Editing the Userpasswords via Admin is no longer working. If you click the Keyicon under "Users" and set a new Password, its not possible to save the new Password.
- If you give Users the Permission "Change Password", theres no Option to edit the Password under the Useraccounts?

Hi Samuli, 

I've the same problem...
I can't neither change the password of Admin nor the users !
A pop-up appear " Request failed".

Any solution ?

Up !

Was this related to https://github.com/sjarvela/mollify/issues/5 (and thus no more relevant)?

If not, could you get the PHP error log? The message "Request failed" itself does not yet tell anything

Hi Samuli.

Thanks

"enable_change_password" => TRUE,
"no_udev_random" => true,

fixed the Problem.

Hi,

I tried this

"enable_change_password" => TRUE,
"no_udev_random" => true,

 

but it did not work.
I still get

Request Failed
RESPONSE error {0:104, 1:Feature disabled, 2:403} Required feature not enabled: change_password

Any help?
Many thanks!!

First of all, don't use "udev_random" unless you are certain it is required. It controls how password library generates random sequences (https://github.com/sjarvela/mollify/wiki/Backend-configuration-options#disable-devurandom-access-no_udev_random). This has nothing to do with enabling/disabling the feature.

Secondly, latest version has this feature enabled by default, so you should not need to enable it explicitly.

But in the end, "enable_change_password" alone should control the feature, and if it does not, perhaps it is in wrong place in configuration.php. It should be in first level in the $CONFIGURATION array.

Thanks, now it works

Its true in the latest version "enable_change_password" is set to true (default) but located in Settings.class.php
I did not know that I have to set it in configuration.php

You are not supposed to edit anything else but configuration.php. All other files are replaced in update, so changes are lost.

Feature default values actually come from Features.class.php. Sure settings.class.php has the all the "enable_nnn" defined there, but those default values are not used for features, they only mark all possible settings supported. But don't modify these files.
