DX Auth 1.0.6 (Authentication library)

[eluser]aidanmcg33[/eluser]
I have installed dx_auth as per instructions and my captcha image is not appearing. I have checked that gd library is installed and double checked the directories listed in the guide. What could be wrong? I am not getting the image missing box, i dont get any <img

edit your .htaccess file

RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|css|img|js|captcha)

[eluser]aidanmcg33[/eluser]
Edit it to what?


this is what it currently contains:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|img|images|css|js|captcha|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

I added

RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|css|img|js|captcha)

...the captcha to the edit there and it started working for me...hmmm

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|css|img|js|captcha)

1- Check your php config. Is the GD2 extension enabled ?

2- The captcha do not appears each time. Try to validate the form with wrong data, and DX auth will make the captcha appears as a spam bot/bruteforce protection.

3- Check this in your DX auth config file :


// Registration
$config['DX_allow_registration'] = TRUE;
$config['DX_captcha_registration'] = TRUE;

// Login
$config['DX_captcha_login'] = FALSE;

I can verify that step 2 and 3 have been followed and it still does not work. How exactly do i verify that the gd2 extension is enabled?

You can run phpinfo() function and see if it's enabled or not.

Make sure 2 things

- your captcha folder is in the same directory as index.php (unless you changed it)
- Make sure you have write permission on captcha folder

Capchta folder is in same directory as index.php and i have given this folder 777 permission.

This is in the gd section of the phpinfo() results
