Hi Guys, 

ive recently moved our crm to a new server. php 8.3.6. not everytime , but most of the time when i try to log in to the cmsb i get the "Error: Password cannot be blank"  and we cant login, would anybody have any ideas? 

i have had this error: Password cannot be blank in /home/*******/admin/plugins/websiteMembership/websiteMembership.php on line 155 which is: loginCookie_set($userRecord['username'], getPasswordDigest(@$_REQUEST['password']));

any help would be useful. thanks in advance

Hi David, 

Can you fill out a second level support request here: https://interactivetools.com/support/request/

I'll take a look and see if it's caused by anything related to CMS.  If you can, also provide steps to reproduce.

Thanks!

HI Dave, unfortunately its on a local locked down server for internal CRM duties, so i cant give you direct access.

Hi David, 

Okay, can you see if the error gets logged to the error log and send me that at dave@interactivetools.com?

Under Admin > Backup, you could back up the error log table and send it to me. 

There might be some clues in there as to what is going on on the server.

hi Guys, did we get anywhere with this? i keep getting the error when anyone logs out, even logging into the CMSB via your login. 

im also reciving this error in yellow:

Unexpected output was sent by a program library or plugin.

Output was "

" (7 chars)

Developers: Check plugins and library files for accidentally added whitespace or other characters.

don't know if its related

Hi tim, thank you, i think it is related to http, https differences, we have forced it to use https and it appears to have sorted the issue currently and allows us to access the site now, im still getting the error regarding white space, ( is there a way to see any more info on this?) 

but for now forcing https seems to have ”fixed” the issue

Great to hear that David! The whitespace issue is usually caused by one of the plugins having some sort of whitespace at the top of the plugin file. One way to troubleshoot this would be to disable each plugin, see if the error goes away and then re-enable if it doesn't. Did you recently install or enable a plugin?

Hi tim, no its been there since i updated to php 8 , i have tried to remove as many plugins as possible to see if it would remove it, but no joy so far, was hoping there might be a way to have it log more info or something like that, but i will plod on going through each of my plugins and trim any possible white space ,but thank you for your help!
