Re: mojoPortal 2-2-8-2-c running on Linux with Mono-2.2, mod_mono and MySQL @ .NET 3.5

Yes, apparently the RSS feature has some problems with things not yet implemented in Mono.

I found that I can change from clear text to encrypted and it works but changing back to plain text I get this:

System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException: Bad PKCS7 padding. Invalid length 85.

at mojoPortal.Web.mojoMembershipProvider.ChangeFromEncryptedPasswordsToClearText (System.Object objSiteSettings) [0x00000]

and when I try to change from clear text to hashed its logging this error:

So these seem like Mono bugs.

Re: mojoPortal 2-2-8-2-c running on Linux with Mono-2.2, mod_mono and MySQL @ .NET 3.5

Is there no workaround, instead of HttpWebRequest.set_UseDefaultCredentials for example?

There may be a possible workaround in code but its better to report it and get it implemented in Mono.

So, due to mono bug, users cannot change their passwords? There isn't a workaround (for authenticated users)?

Thanks,

LB

I have to add some info. Using passwords "encrypted in db" and analyzing them in db, for some users, passwords were shorter then others. For these short passwords, I couldn't click the gear icon next to the user name: server reported the error:

2009-01-27 16:40:55,324 ERROR mojoPortal.Web.mojoBasePage - 83.103.117.254-it-IT - /Admin/ManageUsers.aspx?userid=11

Furthermore, these users could login using whatever password.

I had to modify password management to "clear text", getting wrong passwords in db (and emailing new passwords to users).

Hope this helps.

Re: mojoPortal 2-2-8-2-c running on Linux with Mono-2.2, mod_mono and MySQL @ .NET 3.5

Is this password issue still outstanding? i just installed mojo, and am facing it, can't change my password.

(am running on mono 2.2)

also i found the poll and surveys are broken too.

most everything else seems to be ok.

if i back date my mono to 2.0 (or 2.0.x) will i be ok?

or maybe password issue is fixed in a svn version of mono or mojo? its kinda a show stopper :(

-tl

submitting again, woopra is causing everything to screwup (i guess they are down)

Re: mojoPortal 2-2-8-2-c running on Linux with Mono-2.2, mod_mono and MySQL @ .NET 3.5

Yes, this issue was reported for Mono 2.2. I was able to change my password from the member list page by click the gears next to the user name. This goes to admin user page and allows directly changing the password. There is a bug in the password recovery control used on the user profile page.

I would not go back to older versions of Mono, if possible I would upgrade to Mono 2.4, though I have not yet had time to test it myself, hopefully some bugs are fixed.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: mojoPortal 2-2-8-2-c running on Linux with Mono-2.2, mod_mono and MySQL @ .NET 3.5

thanks joe,

on a different note,

yesterday i played with mojo fine for hours (for the first time), and the page rendering was always fine,

now all of a sudden today,

i get pages with no css, i.e. like "printer friendly",

i restart apache, and i get the first page fine, then a refresh or another page on the site, and no css

i tried another browser, changing skins, always the same, first page load is fine, rest no-css, log is below,

That looks like a bug in Mono.
