Description

I installed Tiki 5.3 from Fantastico and then ran the setup script.

I was able to create some new users and assign them to groups.

The problems manifested when I attempted to change the default admin password and the password that I forgot for one of the new users.

Upon clicking "Edit Account Settings" next to the user, tiki-adminusers.php is displayed with the user number (e.g. tiki-adminusers.php?user=3).

There are three buttons, clicking the one to "confirm" the action causes tiki-adminusers to display a form for editing the password, email, etc. for the user.

"Saving Changes" causes tiki-admin users to again present the three buttons, this time without any user number on the URL.

Clicking to "Confirm" adds a "#" sign to the end of the URL, but nothing seems to happen.

The original password is unchanged and other values entered on the form are unchanged.

Solution

This is a known regression from 5.3, see http://tiki.org/ReleaseNotes5.3Question
This is fixed in 6.0.
