I just reverted to the old version of captcha - buggy as it may be.

site got the wsod earlier today due to:

[Thu May 10 12:23:49 2007] [error] [client 64.230.47.73] PHP Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in /home/dm_50/sites/all/modules/captcha/captcha.module on line 194, referer: http://openconcept.ca/

Steps to reproduce? Did you install the form-store module?

patch didn't work for me, all it did was give me a different error message now.

Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in /path/to/modules/captcha/captcha.module on line 197

Line 197:
$form['#validate'] += array('captcha_validate' => array());

I had installed the form_store module. Just upgraded it to the latest version, tried it again and it seems to be working now (which is great).

I try the patch above.. but still get "Cannot use string offset as an array" resulting from these lines.

200 $_SESSION['captcha'][$seed]['success'] = FALSE;
201 $_SESSION['captcha'][$seed]['form_id'] = $form_id;
202 $_SESSION['captcha'][$seed]['form'] = $result['form'];
203 $_SESSION['captcha'][$seed]['new_value'] = $result['value'];
204 $_SESSION['captcha'][$seed]['preprocess'] = isset($result['preprocess'])? $result['preprocess'] : FALSE;
205 $_SESSION['captcha'][$seed]['module'] = $challenge[0];
206 $_SESSION['captcha'][$seed]['type'] = $challenge[1];

there are more of these type of lines in the number lines below these ones.

I'm using the following:
- Drupal v5.1
- Form Store & Form Collect v5.x-1.0
- Captcha v5.x-2.1

also applied patch "captcha.inc__1.patch" from this post: http://drupal.org/node/143778#comment-247398

Thanks

Version:

5.x-2.0

» 5.x-2.1

This seems to stem from the issue that $seed is grabbed from the token in the form and for anonymous users there is no token in the comment form. did a print_r($form) and found no token for the picking. All the errors (except the +=) seem to come from that.

This is a serious issue that needs a litle fixing.

Are you using the latest version of form_store? Any page with a newsletter wasn't working before I added the latest version of the form store module and added the simplenews block to the list of forms.

My issue is with anonymous comments. If you do a print_r($form) you'll find that anonymous users don't have a token to be read in and that's what's creating a bunch of the problems, i think.

mrgoltra, Unfortunately you can't delete or edit posts.

mefer, I don't know enough about the token that is supposed to be passed to know if this would have an effect or not. I just know it works now and didn't previously.
