No captcha image

skoobi 13 Dec, 2009
Hi im having problems with a few sites where it is not displaying the captcha image... I run my own VPS which has several sites with chronocontact on and most of them the captcha image is not working but on my site which is on the same server it is working fine... I have Apache 2.2 installed and there is the GD2 library installed...
If i click on full errors i get these 2 errors

Notice: Undefined variable: posted in /home/mountple/public_html/modules/mod_chronocontact/helper.php on line 112

Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$plugins in /home/mountple/public_html/modules/mod_chronocontact/helper.php on line 303

Has anybody got any suggestions...

Cheers
Chris

Hi Chris,

Is this just a problem with the module? - do the images show correctly if you open the form from the link in the Forms Manager?

Hi thank you for your reply... No the image is still missing when i go through the forms manager link... Ive just tried turning the sef off aswell and that didnt do anything either...

Right ive tried the components/com_chronocontact/chrono_verification.php link and i get an interneal server error... The permissions are set to 755 and ive cleared the mod_securtiy file and still i get the Interneal server error.. Ive even turned the Server firewall off just to test that...

Any ideas...

Hi Chris,

SEF shouldn't affect it, could be a problem with permissions or with the PNG filetype not being allowed. We've seen both of those posted here in the past.

There are some test in one of th FAQs that might help - please also check the server logs to see if there is any more info on what is causing the errors.

Right Ive got a workaround for it but im still not sure what was wrong...
I basicly started again but i was adding the form to an article by loading it as a module {loadposition}... I found the download for the content plugin and enabled the ReCaptcha plugin and that seems to work... For some reason the ReCaptcha doesnt work if i use it in a module in an article either...

Well its not the ideal way but its working...

Thank you for your responses...

Hi skoobi,

I just ran a check and the ReCaptcha plugin runs OK for me both using the ChronoForms plugin in an article, and using the ChronoForms module.

Using the module it can be hard to tell that the form is submitted if the module re-displays.

It will not work if there are two ReCaptchas on the same page - only one of them seems to display.
