Saving changed prefs (e-mail addr) causes error
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

Author: webmaster

Description:

  • clean installation of mediawiki-1.6.6 on local EasyPHP apache/php setup
  • changing sysop's email address on Preferences page
  • message: "A confirmation e-mail has been sent to the nominated e-mail address"
  • ... but no mail arrives
  • instead apache log shows this: [Thu May 25 10:09:36 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Filename is not valid:

w:/web/special:preferences

I have been looking through the code but I haven't found where the actual action
takes place that requests a new page. If someone would help me a little here,
I'd be happy to dig into it.


Version: 1.6.x
