Potential members get error, they run away.

Greetings,

It seems that members, or potential members are getting errors when trying to register. Luckily I have had two report the issue to me, otherwise I'd never know about it.

Here's the error they sent me:

Expand: Error Error

I of course don't know what to do with that….

So um… yeah. It needs fixed. I am not sure if I should put this in the tracker or here, so I put it here.

Also it seems that they are not getting emails t

Oh, sorry about that.

Could you see if passing #16 through an edit fixed it? It's like what we had before I think.

If that does not work, manually edit that field_16 column to allow nulls.

I'll give a more thorough response probably on Monday.

So, it is an unused bundle, and on phpmyadmin, for 16 I do not see "NOT NULL" anywhere…

I'll keep searching though because I do need this resolved.

Actually, I THINK I resolved it.

I put a default value of N/A in for column 16.

I then registered an account. No errors.

Yup, seems to work - now to squash the not sending email issue.

Ah, well done - I think that would be due to MySQL quirkiness, it's remapping NULL to the field default when the field doesn't allow null (I think).

I'll still come back and take a look, as obviously this is not something that should happen. It's likely related to upgrading.

I got an email to come through. I'll mark this as solved. Sorry, I don't know what I did to fix it, if I did anything at all.
