In 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 if you have the private messaging module installed, and try to register I recieve this message:

403 Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /modules/profile/register.php on this server.

If I uninstall the private messaging module everything is fine. I have had this problem for a while but just figured out how to stop it.

PHP - 4.3.11
MYSQL - 4.0.25 - STANDARD

make sure you give permissions to the anonymous group for the profiles module

Have given the proper permissions, it only happens if the private messaging module is installed, so it must be a bug.

works fine on all my sites.. both 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 versions :S

I have 4 sites now running 2.2.4 and all of them if I install the private messaging module no one can register, if I uninstall it, anyone can register. Glad to hear it works for you but if you read the forums I'm not the first to report this, but I'm the first to find that uninstalling the PM module will fix it. But then no PM's on the site.

After looking at register.php I notice that on line 62 there is a { that doesn't have a } associated with it and on line 229 there is a } that doesn't have a { associated with it.

I don't see how it works at all. I thought if you had a { you needed to close it with }

If I am wrong please someone explain this to me.
If not then it is a flaw in register.php


Now I have 5 sites that will not allow registration if the PM module is installed. But they all work if I uninstall the PM module. And if I leave it deactivated NO registration is poissible, I have to uninstall it.

Thanks,

John

Also, check the permissions on the actual file, everyone should have at least read permissions

Shouldn't have to check perms on the file, it should work out of the box.

I havn't said anything for some weeks, but this niggling little problem has effectively shut me down.

the opening brace on line 62 is the opening brace for the one on line 229

the situation is a switch() function.. so all inside the switch statement are to do with that particular function.. as in each case = '';
