validate_new_user method error

[.M.]

Hi

I'm stuck with this error on the /registration/validate_new_user
method.

Any advice? I've tried this on 0.4 and 0.5 and created a new project
specifically to see if I've done something by mistake with the
boilerplate Identity code.

A couple questions:
1) Paste your code from promote_pending_user method into http://paste.turbogears.org/
and give us the link.
2) Are you using SQLAlchemy or SQLObject?

The code that is failing is trying to find the columns/properties that
a RegistrationPendingUser has and copy them to the new User, but that
isn't working for whatever reason.

Here's my promote_pending_user_method

http://paste.turbogears.org/paste/9481

Using SQLAlchemy

These are the commands I'm using to quickstart project

tg-admin quickstart -t tggenshi --sqlalchemy
tg-admin update -t 'turbogears registration'

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Looks like the .c attribute was removed in the 0.5 release of
SqlAlchemy (I'm assuming you're using 0.5). Try this (untested):

# in imports section
from sqlalchemy.orm import class_mapper

And then something like:
http://paste.turbogears.org/paste/9494

If that doesn't work, you can always assign each field manually. e.g.

new_user = register_model.User()
new_user.user_name = pending_user.user_name
new_user.email = pending_user.email
...

Partly works, doesn't transfer all fields but does some.

Thanks. I'll post you a patch when I get it working.

I'm stumped Patrick.

Your code didn't transfer user_name and I couldn't work out how to use
the Column object so i went with option two.
