Under normal circumstances, User::getCanonicalName() should return the user name entered by the user. But I do not know what strange things happen inside User::getCanonicalName().

The problem has been solved. Looks like is the user to add his username to [[mediawiki:newusermessage-editor]] page, cause the user can't login and not run changePassword.php.
