Bonk on e-mail confirmation

AndyB

I just installed v2.0.18.4 and tested the user registration. The e-mail for confirmation never arrived and when I click on resend I get a Bonk error msg page. Is there a way to correct this? The site is andybennett.us/goodyearazforum

Thanks

Question: What is the first thing to do when you get a bonk?

answer: scan the last few pages of discussions that relate to what to do if you get a bonk error. then post your debug results.

put these in your config.php

$Configuration['Garden']['Debug'] = TRUE;
$Configuration['Garden']['Errors']['MasterView'] = 'deverror.master.php';

@underdog wouldn't it be cool, if the bonk page had a message or a link on it that told you how to debug a bonk page???? how to add the above debug statements or a link to how to debug?? It would reduce the number of discussions - "I got a bonk, what do I do" here by 25%.

ok I added it here and now I get a fatal error

next step use the "C" Code function so it is viewable.

it is generally not a good idea to show your salt or key information hopefully you can edit the pertinent stuff.

each statement in config.php should begin on a new line and end with a semi-colon.
you probably didn't put the two lines in correctly. go back to your config.php before you edited it and add the 2 lines correctly.

I think he took off... I see ...uuhm... another forum system at that address now :-)
I'll leave this one open for archive purposes...
