Nabil Imran	Monday 01 February 2010 8:04:16 am Hello after upgrad vom eZ 3.8 to eZ 4.2 the register module makes some problems: I can register new users with no problem, but when I click onto the activation link, it says "permission denied". I already tried to allow user module all functions for anonymous users via admin frontend, but it still does not work. Are there any new configuration settings I have to apply? I found the AnonymousAccessList setting in the documentation. Could that be what I need? I never had to use that before. O.o What is the clean way to get the user activation to work? Thank you very much. btw: the log files don't say anything interesting
Nabil Imran	Tuesday 02 February 2010 4:20:13 am Solved The problem was that the registrationinfo.tpl template was overridden and did not contain the users node_id in the activation link. In eZ 3.8 this was not necessary while it is now. So the activation link was wrong for eZ 4.2. I could solve it by chainging {'Click the following URL to confirm your account'\|i18n('design/standard/user/register')} http://{$hostname}{concat("user/activate/", $hash)\|ezurl(no)} to {'Click the following URL to confirm your account'\|i18n('design/standard/user/register')} http://{$hostname}{concat("user/activate/", $hash, "/", $user.contentobject.main_node_id)\|ezurl(no)} So people upgrading from old eZ version to 4.2 an have their own registration template, might need this as well.
