Nabil Imran	Friday 02 October 2009 6:12:13 am Hello, I just ran into a very strange problem: I upgraded eZ from 4.0.0 to 4.0.3 to 4.1.4 to 4.2.0. Before and after that everything worked perfectly. Later I added a new User and changed some permissions, e.g. removed ezdhtml permissions and added ezoe permission to editors.. Thats all I remember I did so far and should not be able to cause any strange problems. But ... <b>Problem:</b> When I try to login to login with the new User or even ANY user and enter the correct password, I get redirected to a "Change password for user" dialog (<http://domain>/<anysiteaccess>/userpaex/password/2458). There I have to type my old password and enter a new one twice. When I submit the form, I get to the same dialog again in an infinite loop! O.o When I call any valid url directly, I can access the site, but I'm still logged out. I don't think it's a bug, I more think, that I messed up something, but I don't have any idea what it might be O.o Help!

The cause was, that I accidentally activated an extension called ezmbpaex that I imported while upgrading the system. My bad. omg

Hello,
I just ran into a very strange problem:

I upgraded eZ from 4.0.0 to 4.0.3 to 4.1.4 to 4.2.0. Before and after that everything worked perfectly. Later I added a new User and changed some permissions, e.g. removed ezdhtml permissions and added ezoe permission to editors..

<b>Problem:</b>
When I try to login to login with the new User or even ANY user and enter the correct password, I get redirected to a "Change password for user" dialog (<http://domain>/<anysiteaccess>/userpaex/password/2458).

Help!
