Working through Resetting Forgotten Password script in Lesson8 in CS5 with PHP

Hi,
I finished editing the completed scripts in lesson 8 to suit my users table in my mysql database. Originally I was getting a mysql error 1054 saying that "token" was a missing field. So I added a 100 VARCHAR "token" column in my users table. Now I am getting the following error message:
Notice: Undefined variable: token in "path to the request_reset_unsub.php script "\request_reset_unsub.php on line 33
An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions.
Also...I am still getting the
Request Received
An email has been sent to your registered address with instructions for resetting your password.
message but the email that the script is supposed to send does not get sent (probably because the try block ends and goes to the catch block before the script can send the message).
Can anyone shed some light on my dilemna?

Also, the same thing happened in step 5 when I tried to type $dbWrite->getConnection().
no code hints popped up at all.

Reset forgotten password glitch

Working through the Powers' latest book. Everything seemed to be working fine in local testing environment recently. When I uploaded the files tonight to the remote server and did a test of the forgotten password feature, I'm getting a message at the top of the Request Received screen (p. 293) that says "Connection refused" and not seeing the reset email come in. The request_reset.php code is below:
isValid($_POST['email'])) {        $errors = TRUE;      }      if (!$errors) {        $sql = $dbRead->quoteInto('SELECT user_id, first_name, last_name, email FROM users WHERE email = ?', $_POST['email']);        $result = $dbRead->fetchRow($sql);        if (!$result) {           $errors = TRUE;        } else {         // update database and send mail           $token = md5(uniqid(mt_rand(), TRUE));           $data = array('token' => $token);           $where = $dbWrite->quoteInto('email = ?', $_POST['email']);           $dbWrite->update('users', $data, "user_id = {$result['user_id']}");             }        $mail = new Zend_Mail('UTF-8');        $mail->addTo($result['email'], "{$result['first_name']} {$result['last_name']}");        $mail->setSubject('Instructions for resetting your password');        $mail->setFrom('[email protected]', 'Wild Felid Association');        $link = "http://www.conmolbry.com/WFRMA/reset.php?id={$result['user_id']}&token=$token";        $message = "Use the following link to reset your password. This link can be used once only. $link";        $mail->setBodyText($message, 'UTF-8');        $mail->send();      } } catch (Exception $e) {      echo $e->getMessage(); } }Peter

David thank you the first approach did not work but the second one did. At least I got the email with the token link. However, when I click on the link it takes me to an error page that says:
Not Found
The requested URL /WFRMA/reset.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
The reset.php file is sitting right there in the root directory. This is the reset_password.php code if it means anything in resolving this further hiccup:
<?php
session_start();
$errors = array();
$success = FALSE;
$_SESSION['nomatch'] = TRUE;
require_once('library.php');
try {
if (isset($_GET['id']) && isset($_GET['token'])) {
     $id = $dbRead->quote($_GET['id']);
     $token = $dbRead->quote($_GET['token']);
     $sql = "SELECT user_id FROM users WHERE user_id = $id AND token = $token";
     $result = $dbRead->fetchRow($sql);
     if ($result) {
      $_SESSION['user_id'] = $_GET['id'];
       $_SESSION['token'] = $_GET['token'];
       $_SESSION['nomatch'] = FALSE;
if (isset($_POST['reset'])) {
     // password reset code goes here
     $val = new Zend_Validate();
     $val->addValidator(new Zend_Validate_StringLength(8,15));
     $val->addValidator(new Zend_Validate_Alnum());
     if (!$val->isValid($_POST['password'])) {
       $errors['password'] = 'Use 8-15 letters or numbers only';
     $val = new Zend_Validate_Identical($_POST['password']);
     if (!$val->isValid($_POST['conf_password'])) {
       $errors['conf_password'] = "Passwords don't match";
     if (!$errors) {
       // update the password
       $data = array('password' => sha1($_POST['password']),
                     'token'    => NULL);
       $where['user_id = ?'] = $_SESSION['user_id'];
       $where['token = ?'] = $_SESSION['token'];
       $success = $dbWrite->update('users', $data, $where);
       unset($_SESSION['user_id']);
       unset($_SESSION['token']);
       unset($_SESSION['nomatch']);
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
Thanks.

Brief redux: Reset forgotten password

Referring back to the earlier thread, my issue was resolved in terms of getting the email with token successfully sent and the password reset feature operating as it is supposed to. However, the site I'm working on I hope to transfer to an organization here shortly. I don't want my email address in the mail_connector.php file. I'm also using the mail connector file with a contact form developed from lesson 8. So far that form is not working correctly from the remote server. I don't understand just yet how I further modify that file as I transfer the site and the reset feature continue to work for the client and could use a bit more guidance. Thank you.

Reset Forgotten Password

Is there an API that will allow me to reset the password of a user who forgot their password?
I saw in article in posted ( http://technet.oracle.com:89/ubb/Forum83/HTML/000411.html ) but I am wondering if this will change the password in the OID or in the Portal Login Server.
Thanks

You could use a temporary LDIF file as a simple solution to do this:
dn: [user's DN here]
changetype: modify
replace: userpassword
userpassword: abc12345
It you go about it this way, you will have to worry about protecting the security of the LDIF file (e.g., it should have OS permissions 600 and should be removed right away after running ldapmodify). A better solution would involve using JNDI code or the DBMS_LDAP package to set the password to a new value.

Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

Resetting Forgotten Passwords

The password lookup facility is not working!
I have tried several times in the last week to get my password emailed to me without success.
As if that wasn't frustrating enough, the little box that pops up after you submit your email address, says if you don't get a response in a reasonable amount of time, click here. That takes you to the general Contact Home, and guess what, there is no way to contact OTN from there, by phone or otherwise.
Establishing a new account every time you forget a password is not a good solution. After all, I only have two email accounts.
Can someone in OTN please send me my userid and password for this email address?
Thanks you,
Richard

Need to reset forgotten password HELP! No software

I was given a iBook g4 by my mom
She cannot remember her login password
Can anyone help be reset? I don't have any software!!

Carol:
The easiest way to do it with the install disk. It is important to have the install disk so that you can run diagnostics and repairs on your computer. You can get the original disk that shipped with your computer by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753). Be sure to have the computer serial number or other information handy. There is a service charge of around $60. for this service.
To access the computer without the disk follow the directions for Making the Setup Assistant reappear. This will set up a new admin account with a new password. Once you have done this you can go in and access the old admin account or delete it.
Good luck.

Question about reset password in lesson08 of David Powers (Dreamweaver CS5 with PHP)

I'm at the page 299 that found a problem in reset password. I managed to received email of link to reset password. In the reset password form, why no checking of password length entered or password unmatch with confirmed password input ? Instead it displays error message of 'Sorry, there was an error. Make sure you used the complete URL in the email you received. The URL can be used to change your password only once. If necessary...' The error message of 'Passwords don't match' or 'Use 8-15 letters or numbers only' not processed.
Please help !
Thank You

I can see the 32 characters attached to URL and also I can see the 32 characters stored in database. It actually can reset the the password if entered within the requirement of 8-15. But when I entered less than 8, it does not show the error message of 'Use 8-15 letters or numbers only'.
I noticed that $_SESSION['nomatch'] was assigned to True after the validation of 8-15 length. Below is the code for reference.
<?php
session_start();
$errors = array();
$success = FALSE;
$_SESSION['nomatch'] = TRUE;
require_once('library.php');
try {
if (isset($_GET['id']) && isset($_GET['token'])) {
          $id = $dbRead->quote($_GET['id']);
          $token = $dbRead->quote($_GET['token']);
          $sql = "SELECT user_id FROM users WHERE user_id = $id AND token = $token";
          $result = $dbRead->fetchRow($sql);
          if ($result) {
      $_SESSION['user_id'] = $_GET['id'];
            $_SESSION['token'] = $_GET['token'];
            $_SESSION['nomatch'] = FALSE;
if (isset($_POST['reset'])) {
          // password reset code goes here
          $val = new Zend_Validate();

Dreamweaver CS5 with PHP, not getting it to work with virtual Host

I have not got far with the book so far. I am still on the second chapter where you set the Virtual Host but after setting up the Dreamweaver site definition and doing the test. I get the error that page cannot be found.
I ask if I can mail the text file of the http.conf and the httpd-vhosts.conf to anyone to see if I screwed up somewhere . I am running on Windows 7 with the WAMP setup.

Mr. Powers,
I used your included file httpd-vhosts.conf. And it did something since now I get a new set of errors.
( ! ) Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0
( ! ) Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required 'C:/vhosts/phpcs5/lesson02/site_check.php' (include_path='.;C:\php\pear') in Unknown on line 0
But I checked the properties of the folders and unchecked the 'read only' permission but still gets checked again. I am using Windows 7 64-bit.
I checked on the web nobody says any solutions about it, they only imply that is a permissions issue.
I apologize, I found out the chapter files were encrypted... thanks
