Help With Login Code

[iisthesloth]

Hey, for some reason everytime I try logging in, it is saying there is an incorrect password or email, though there is not. Can anyone find an error which may cause this? Thanks alot...

 

<?
if (isset($_POST['submitted'])) {
require_once ('../mysql_rolldc_connect.php');
  if (!empty($_POST['email'])) {
    $e = escape_data($_POST['email']);
  } else {
   echo "<script language='JavaScript'> alert('You forgot to enter your email address'); </script>";
   $e = FALSE;
}
   if (!empty($_POST['pass'])) {
    $p = escape_data($_POST['pass']);
  } else {
    echo "<script language='JavaScript'> loginView('toggleText'); </script>";
   $p = FALSE;
}

if ($e && $p) {
  $query = "SELECT user_id, first_name FROM users WHERE (email='$e' AND pass=SHA('$p')) AND active IS NULL";
   $result = mysql_query ($query) or trigger_error("Query: $query\n<br /> MySQL Error: " . mysql_error());
   
   if (@mysql_num_rows($result) == 1) {
    $row = mysql_fetch_array ($result, MYSQL_NUM);
 mysql_free_result($result);
 mysql_close();
 $_SESSION['first_name'] = $row[1];
 $_SESSION['user_id'] = $row[0];
 $url = 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
   if ((substr($url, -1) == '/') OR (substr($url, -1) == '\\') ) {
   $url = substr ($url, 0, -1);
 }
 $url .= '/index1.php';
 ob_end_clean();
 header("Location: $url");
 exit();
  } else {
     echo "<script language='JavaScript'> alert('Incorrect Email or Password'); </script>";
  }
  } else {
  echo "<script language='JavaScript'> alert('Please try again'); </script>";
}
}
?>

<div id="interface">
  <ul>
   <li><a href="javascript:loginView('toggleText');" id="switch">Login</a><a href="#" id="forgotpass">Forgot Password?</a></li>
   <li><a href="/traderp/register.php">Register</a></li>

Oh yeah, I'm using PHP 5...

[iisthesloth]

Anyone have any idea at all?? This is really stumpin' me

I've set here and looked at your code, doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it, hows your database look? Maybe if I know what the fields in "users" look like maybe I can figure out what is going on.

 

Although I have never used NULL as a activation value. I tend to use something like "TRUE" if they are activated, just to give the field a value.

As always, print_r($_REQUEST) and see what the variables are doing at the times you need them.

A simple trim(), stripslashes() or str_to_lower() might fix it.

 

 

And do you mean sha1 instead of sha? I'm just guessing, I'm not an SQL expert.

[iisthesloth]

hmm, i got this with the print_r($_REQUEST)

 

Array ( => petesaia@comcast.net [pass] => password [submit] => Login [submitted] => TRUE )

[mrjcfreak]

try sha1($_POST['password']) and see if it matches up with that the SQL is looking for.

Also remove AND pass=SHA('$p') from the query to see if it can match the email.

[iisthesloth]

SHA1 didn't work, i'm sure its encoded with SHA though. However when I took the AND pass=SHA('$p') where it trys to match it, it gave me this error from the mysql_error() function...

 

 

 

Notice: Query: SELECT user_id, first_name FROM users WHERE (email='petesaia@comcast.net'))

MySQL Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ')' at line 1 in /home/.navigator/iisthesloth/rolldc.com/index2.php on line 56

[mrjcfreak]

You have too many closing parentheses.

I meant in your PHP, just before your query, put echo sha1($_POST['password']) to see the encrypted string PHP is trying to match with the database...

 

Sorry I can't offer a quick fix, I'm just going through all the things I'd do to debug...
