Summary0001683: Self-registration page shown even if no external source exists
DescriptionWhen updating from 4.0.1 to 4.0.5-2 there is a new feature :
"Self-registration is now enabled when a profile has at least one external authentication source" introduced in 4.0.4

I have no external source, but still get the guest/self-registration page.
I was feeling lucky and tried creating then removing external sources, or simply creating new internal sources, but it didn't work either.

I tried to add sources to the profile but was blocked by another bug : http://www.packetfence.org/bugs/view.php?id=1682 [^]

This bug is tricky as I also encouter this one :
http://www.packetfence.org/bugs/view.php?id=1681 [^]

Best regards,

Sylvain

Relevant lines in packetfence.log:

This line also seems to be linked in portal_error_log (it appears at the same time):

Use of uninitialized value in subroutine entry at /usr/local/pf/lib/pf/web/dispatcher.pm line 68.

After solving http://www.packetfence.org/bugs/view.php?id=1682, [^] I can say it happens only when no authentication source is selected.

Therefore the problem was caused by bug 1682.

Here, there's no important problem (it works fine if you have selected a source), but we can think about the behaviour of the captive portal when no authentication source is selected.

By the way, I can't decrease severity ;)
