If this implies I have to
ask all registered users to register again, this is not an option!
Or do you mean only the new users on the new 2.1.1 system? (not a problem at all)
I've imported all the users of the 1.7 instance to the new 2.1.1 instance since my
question as submitted
This also explains why "AnneKoekkoek" was 'active'; this is because i
overwrite with the import the not activated account
I've tested some of these imported users, did not give a problem to login or wrk with
the system 2.1.1
Changing the xwiki class xwikiusers does sound like a tricky exercise; I submitted a
question about this class two, three days ago...
I wonder what will happen if you export users that are created on a certain class
definition of xwikiusers and import them into a
xwiki with a new defined or changed class defenition of xwikiusers (by example the type of
the hashkey?)
I've migrated a application from xwiki 1.7 to
xwiki 2.1.1
The process i've executed is started with a clean distribution of
xwiki2.0
If configured the wiki to multi language and that registration is
required
Use of email verificatiion to "Yes"
Check Active fields for authentication to "Yes"
I've manually copied the scripts of welcome and confirmation to the
Validation e-mail content and Confirmation e-mail content
After that i've exported the wiki and importing the XAR; making sure I
did not overwrite any document in XWiki space.
Testing the registration gives the following result (we use gmail as
SMTP service)
User registers and receives the request for validation; result OK
User clicks on the link to activate the account
The website shows up OK
but the validation fails with message;
"There was a problem validationg your account, please contact a
administrator"
The link in the email is the following;
http://cdlsworld.devxwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/AccountValidation?validk…
Since i'm hosting the site at XWIKI.com i have no access to the file
system to check if the key is as expected from xwiki.cfg file
How to solve; help greatly appreciated
Just tried to register a new account, and noticed that the activation
key is stored as a hash in the database, although it is expected to be
plain text in the code. This means that the XWikiUsers class must be
changed so that the Validation Key property has PlainText storage type.
This means that all users who tried to register while this hash was
active will have to re-register with a different account.
This should be fixed on our side too, so that the validation code also
works with hashed keys.
See http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4712
That particular user (AnneKoekkoek) seems to be
activated already (try
logging in),
Explained above...
but the activation key in the object is different than
the
one from the mail. This means that somewhere a different key was generated.
Explained above; I think you see the key of the 1.7 instance; and in the mail the
key was generated by the 2.1.1. instance
What is the best way
-Change the class definition of key to plaintext (if this implies asking all existing
users to re-create a new account, this is not a option)
- Change the code of the validation script; can I do that my self? I need some instruction
on how?
