What terms did you try when SEARCHING for a solution:

Write your message below:

I saw another post with similar issue, but the user posted again saying they found a way to fix it by enabling global register?? I have no idea what that means... I've google'd those terms and did not find anything useful to explain what it means or how to do it. The 1.3 is an upgrade to the previous version, but I did a clean install because of some modifications we had made to the previous version for our own spam filter. In much need of utilizing the new Spam filtering.

The Image verification page continues to ask for the same number again after putting the correct number in. I have not been able to get it past this point yet.

Any help - would be greatly appreciated!

Can you try opening mboard.php in a text editor (like Notepad) and editing line 66 from

Code: Select all

if(empty($secnumber))
to this

Code: Select all

if(empty($mysecnum))
Save, upload to the server, CLOSE ALL YOUR BROWSER WINDOWS then try again.

Let me know if it helps.

YAY!

You can disable it by setting $settings['autosubmit'] to 0 in the settings file, but I don't recommend doing that. Upload phpinfo and session test files to your server (find them here viewtopic.php?t=82 ) and maybe we can find the problem.

As suspected, sessions aren't working on your server. Make sure this folder exists:
C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\php\session
and is writable by PHP scripts.

- OR -

change it (in your php.ini) to some other folder (like C:\Temp) and make sure it is writable by PHP scripts.
