If this implies I have to ask all registered users to register again, this is not an option! Or do you mean only the new users on the new 2.1.1 system? (not a problem at all) I've imported all the users of the 1.7 instance to the new 2.1.1 instance since my question as submitted This also explains why "AnneKoekkoek" was 'active'; this is because i overwrite with the import the not activated account I've tested some of these imported users, did not give a problem to login or wrk with the system 2.1.1 Changing the xwiki class xwikiusers does sound like a tricky exercise; I submitted a question about this class two, three days ago... I wonder what will happen if you export users that are created on a certain class definition of xwikiusers and import them into a xwiki with a new defined or changed class defenition of xwikiusers (by example the type of the hashkey?) > > This should be fixed on our side too, so that the validation code also > works with hashed keys.

This means that somewhere a different key was generated. Explained above; I think you see the key of the 1.7 instance; and in the mail the key was generated by the 2.1.1. instance What is the best way -Change the class definition of key to plaintext (if this implies asking all existing users to re-create a new account, this is not a option) - Change the code of the validation script; can I do that my self? I need some instruction on how? -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
