Severity: normal
Dear Moinmoin maintainer,
The mail-verification.patch adds the line:
mailok, msg = sendmail.sendmail(request, user.email, subject, text,
request.cfg.mail_from)
The second argument of sendmail.sendmail should be a list but user.email is
not a list!
This can be fixed by replacing the above line in the
mail-verification.patch with:
mailok, msg = sendmail.sendmail(request, [user.email], subject, text,
request.cfg.mail_from)
ie: the addition of [] around user.email
This bug stops external_account_creation_check.patch from working properly.
Please can you make this tiny fix!
If you need more info please let me know.
Many thanks
Alex Owen
PS: for sysadmin out there who want to monkey patch this you can do by
copying the action into your wiki instance as a custom action and fixing
there.
ie:
SUDO=sudo
$SUDO cp -p /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/MoinMoin/action/newaccount.py \
$WIKI/data/plugin/action/
$SUDO sed -i -e'/mailok, msg =
sendmail.sendmail/s/user.email/\[user.email\]/' \
$WIKI/data/plugin/action/newaccount.py
