Hi Bill, any line numbers (or a complete stack trace?). My first _guess_ (and lets face it, I have never used the Turbine User security stuff) is something to do with the primary key probably being the login email address rather than an 'expected' ID. But this is purely a stab in the dark.
Send a complete stack trace (hopefully with line #'s) and I'll have a dig around in the source code and see what I can find. (is it 2.1 or 2.2?) cheers, Paul Smith > -----Original Message----- > From: Bill [mailto:bhalpin@;collaborativefusion.com] > Sent: Thursday, 14 November 2002 11:27 PM > To: turbine-user > Subject: More fun extending user > > > Problem Description: > > Followed the how-to and added several fields to user object. > Am able to > successfully login to system using default user account > ('turbine') and > can manipulate the user using defined methods.
