Hi,

I can no longer login on the frontend from my Home page after updating Joomla to latest release. I get an error message after clicking on Create a new Account, Retrive Password or Forgot your Username:

Create a New Acoount gives me:
Fatal error: Call to a member function def() on a non-object in /home/websterc/public_html/properties/components/com_user/views/register/tmpl/default.php on line 19

AND:
Fatal error: Call to a member function def() on a non-object in /home/websterc/public_html/properties/components/com_user/views/remind/tmpl/default.php on line 3

:confused:

Hi Scotty,
My email shows you asked for live url to see if it might be templet related,(see below) however I don’t see it in the forum. It is properties.webstercommunitynews.com if you need it: Thanks!

This problem has been reported by others on the Joomla Forum.

Do you have a live URL? I’d like to see if it’s template specific.

Yea I edited my post.

As the error is being found in a Joomla core file I presume the problem is not template related.

yikes! If you do a google on “com_user/views/remind/tmpl/default.php on line 3″ it throws up loads of sites with the same problem.

You are running PHP5 yes?

Yes, php 5.2.9. Strange thing is that my sub-domain does not allow login without error however my main domain (using telinne11) does not have a problem, I just checked it. Both where upgraded. Could that show it might possibly be the template then?

I think back when I upgraded both my domain and sub-domain (both have own databases) to 1.5.10 I had the same problem with my sub-domain using JA Rochea template.

thanks for you help!

No the error is a PHP error and nothing to do with the template.

Can you open /home/websterc/public_html/properties/components/com_user/views/remind/tmpl/default.php and post it’s contents here please?

Sandy in the file above on the second line can you change the ‘def’ to ‘get’ and then on your site click the ‘Forgot Username?’ link please.

Hi Scotty,
I changed it, but still not working.

Not much more I can do. I thought it was a PHP issue but your main domain site is wroking correct. I’m not good enough with PHP to trace the problem. It does seem to be a bug in Joomla as loads of sites have the same problem and I see one or two threads on Joomla forum about it but no solution.

I’d download Joomla full pack and overwrite all your existing files just to make sure all files are the latest. If problem is still there I’d post an other thread in Joomla forums.

Hi Scotty,

I found out it was a corrupt file problem. For some reason FTP corrupted some file(s) with the Upgrade package. I was instructed from Joomla.org to re-ftp the files and if that didn’t work to re-ftp the FULL package minus the installation folder. The latter worked!

That was weird but uploading the full package worked. Thanks so much for you help.

You will probably find that your download had become corrupted. I had this too so I restored to before the upgrade to .14, downloaded a fresh copy the re-uploaded and all was fine. From what I have been told, for a short while the update package on the Joomla.org server was faulty but they quickly replaced it with a good version.
