register erros on new install

Post by bigdank »

Hi
i just installed a 1.0.6 portal version and keep getting the same errors.

If i go to register i can see the TOS page but clicking the accept button brings me to a blank page

I cant access the spam counter measures link in ACP either, both errors seem related as captcha is part of register page.

I have reinstalled this version 3 times and gone to the extreme of reinstalling the OS on my VPS and i still get the same error.

in my error log all i am getting is this:

Code: Select all

[Thu Aug 11 03:08:02 2011] [error] [client x.x.x.x] File does not exist: /home/mysite/mysite/home, referer: mysite. info/ucp. php?mode=register
[Thu Aug 11 03:08:02 2011] [error] [client x.x.x.x] File does not exist: /home/mysite/mysite/home, referer: mysite. info/ucp. php?mode=register
my root is /home/mysite/mysite
but the logs are showing an extra /home folder in the path??

What can i be doing wrong, i have reinstalled the DB, reinstalled the simplemath captcha plugin and tried different styles ALL of which fail to fix the issue.

Someone help! :beg:

Figured this out.
I found it really wierd that i could not register or access the captcha module via admin.
It seems as though if your php environment is missing the php-bcmath function the captcha in admin wont load because it cant display the examples.

I had debug on and still had no errors showing so this is very hard to troubleshoot.
But for anyone else having blank pages this would be a good place to start.

thanks for pointing it out! those types of things are hard to figure out since no one know exactly the modules enabled or disabled on peoples host's php version!
