I recently had my hosting site update efiction to the newest version (it worked fine prior) , since that time my users are having continual problems with some of the following

Unable to change their password.  They can insert and go through the process of changing, only it does not take and their old password (or initial site generated one) remains. 

When and author tries to respond to a review the following is displayed    Error!We encountered an error. Please go back and try again.  The error log does not display anything.

2 questions -

1. Any direction on these?

2. Is it possible to simply install a fresh copy and retain the database info? How?

Here is the code to use to fix the review situation. It helped me.

Code:

if($adminloggedin || $uid == $useruid) {

 

Delete it, and add these lines instead:

Code:

$resultch = dbquery("SELECT uid FROM ".$tableprefix."fanfiction_chapters WHERE chapid = '$chapid' LIMIT 1");
list($authoruid) = dbrow($resultch);
if($adminloggedin || $authoruid == $useruid) {

Thank you.

i will try that fix once I know I can get around the password problem.

I have tried a fresh installation on another server and the same problem comes up with a password.

A fatal MySQL error was encountered.
Query: UPDATE fanfiction_authors as author SET password='1bcef13edbca2011fb8a7851b124f819' WHERE uid = '2'
Error: (1064) You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'as author SET password='1bcef13edbca2011fb8a7851b124f819' WHERE uid = '2'' at line 1

I've run into this problem is several fresh installations (not updates).

Would like to know, was this situation ever resolved with being unable to reset the passwords after reinstallation? Am currently having the same issue.
