Hi Beat,

I got this link

serapisbey.com/web/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbcaptcha/captchaindex.php?urlmode=image&captchasid=Sr2uoYRdjqAxTSsuGazZFwl5c1RKLhoX

and the error says "invalid session"

I tried being logged in to the site and not logged and the same error appears.

Thanks for the help

Gonzalo

I'm following this thread as well - my result was:

count(_SESSION) == 0



Image is of my install on Joomla 1.5.11 and CB 1.2.1.

Thanks,

Ernie

Dear Beat,

Thank you for all your kind support, unfortunately I still have the problem.

To determine if the problem was with my joomla installation I have tried two other installations on the same server on with 10.0.15 and another with 1.5; in both cases I got the same problem.

I verified all the components and modules and the only on which is not working is the captcha plug-in, your help will be appriciated.

It seems that something needs to be set on the server, I'm running OS X Server 10.5.6 below find some information on Joomla configuration details.

I am having the same problem, and I believe it is either a Permissions issue on the folder (which I've confirmed is 755 on my Unix platform, but the other issue I may be experiencing is because I'm using JMS2Win (MultiSites), and have copied sites using the same plugin. It could be related to something with the symbolic links that point to /components. Using MultiSites, many of my sites that have symbolic links to /components can't render the image or audio, and when examined further, show the same "session start issue" text as previously mentioned by someone else in this post. The sites that don't have symbolic links to /components work just fine - the captcha renders as expected. For now, I'm going to turn it off, because it's a "nice to have" instead of a "need to have".
