Hello,

I want to change the user's password. For this, I use the function

Auth::change_password($old_password, $new_password, $username);

But it works with all values in "old_password".

I don't understand why..

What type of Auth? Which Fuel version?

I'm using Simpleauth with the version 1.7.2 of Fuel

I can't immediately see how that would happen.

Could you create an issue for this at https://github.com/fuel/auth/issues ?

Before that, maybe I've not configured or used good the auth package, no ?

I've added "auth" in my config.php file in "always_load" section

I've created a "auth.php" config file with

...

'driver' => 'Simpleauth',

...

And a simpleauth.php config file with my groups and my roles

And then I use the auth functions to perform all actions I need, included the change of user's password.

Something missing ?

One precision after some tests :

The password is changed only when the old_password is correct but I haven't got any error when I enter a wrong old password.

I've found the problem ...

Here my code :

try

{

Auth::change_password(

$old_password,

$new_password,

$user->username

);

Response::redirect('user');

}

catch (Exception $e)

{

Session::set_flash('error', $e->getMessage());

}

But the change_password() function return a Boolean and not an Exception...

Sorry and thank you for your help :)
