Anti Spam image issue

BradC 29 Oct, 2008
I have study all the posts regarding this issue but none have helped.

The forms with the security image work fine on my local computer, but not on the live site. I just get the red x.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the component (3.0 STABLE), made no difference.

Thanks for the help

Hi BradC,

Please check the FAQ "ImageVerification doesn't work" - I think it's #30 (but the numbers sometimes seem to change).

Thanks Bob, I got this error. Any ideas what could be wrong? Looks like a call to the ISP.

Hi Brad,

Looks like that to me too - are all the checks on the Anti-spam tab looking OK?

Yes they are.

Hi Brad,

One more thought - try the 'without fonts' option please. If that works then check that the default.ttf file has been uploaded correctly. It should be in the components/com_chronocontact folder (might be worth re-uploading just in case it's corrupt.)

Then I think the next stop is the server logs and your ISP - this is only a small graphics job and shouldn't be causing any kind of server timeout.

Hi Bob

Uploaded the whole com_chronocontact folder from my working computer and made the change to 'without fonts' - no improvement.

I'll get in contact with the ISP

Regards
Brad

Hi Bob

It's now working again. UPDATE - ISP changed permissions on the components folder

This is what the ISP found in the error log.

Hi Brad,

Excellent, I'm glad it's working - though the anti-spam doesn't use MooTools so that looks like you've fixed two problems for the price of one.
