Trouble Authenticate User Encryption Error?

Trouble Authenticate User Encryption Error?

Today, I'm using WA for the first time. Started using the SA wizzard to create login pages - two different ways.

First without encryption - login works!

Second with encryption - Login page goes to a blank EmailPW.php page.

I've been reading the forums and tried:
- changing User Authentication
- checking database field names
- reconfiguring database password for encryption (not thru PHP script)
- checking session timeouts thru ISP using forum script - sessiontest.php


Stumped now - I'm giving some script to you. Sorry for the length. I'm not sure where to start. Hope you can help me.

Thanks in advance! Kathi

Are you testing logging in with Password Encryption using an existing registration that was created before modifying the registration page to store the password encrypted? Or have you created a New User that you are testing?

For the logging to succeed, the password must be stored in the database in the SHA1 encrypted format.

I can see from the code you supplied that the login page has been modified for Password Encryption so here are the other things to check:

1) make sure the password column in the database is set to hold 40 characters. The SHA1 encrypted password will be 40 characters long.

2) have you modified the registration page as outlined in the tutorial? On the registration page, the Dreamweaver Insert Record behavior needs to be replaced with the DataAssist insert record behavior so that the password will be stored in the DB in SHA1 format.

3) once the registration page has been modified for SHA1 encryption, you need to register a new user. Any user created before modifying the registration page will no longer function.

Changes in authentication errors

Jason -

Thanks for your help. I can see several mistakes in my code now.

The site locked out the members and I was unable to fix the login. I removed all php actions/code from the files. In doing this, I realized authentication was occurring in previous files stored in a folder 'old'. Also, there were duplicate actions in several files. The helper, groups, connections and config are new to me, so I couldn't trace the code.

After removing all WA code from all the files, my site visitors can view the pages. Yaa!

I would like to start from scratch. The first pages I created using SA wizzard worked great until I started changing authentication. Maybe re-install WA?

What do you suggest? Thanks in advance!

Kathi

I would like to start from scratch. My first How do I remove all WA coded files and from the site and start over.

go to modify Security Assist -> Access Pages manager and remove the access rules you have applied to any of the site pages.

Delete the WA_SecurityAssist and WA_DataAssist folders from your site.

Delete the pages created by the Securituy Assist wizard.

This should get you back to the beginning.

Starting Over - Deleting Files Created by SA

Hello -

I'm going to delete the files created by SA.

Is it necessary to delete folder WA_SecurityAssist and SpryAssets?

Thanks in advance - Kathi

it is not necessary to delete the spry assets folder, but you should delete the security assist folder to remove any of the rules you created.
