[ZendTo] Recaptcha suddenly falling for multiple users

[Burns, Richard H.]

I apparently upgraded and didn’t know it. I restarted apache, but it still shows Version 4.12 on the splash screen. The easiest way to verify I was running the new version was the “How secure is ZendTo” link on the main page which says it was introduced in 4.19-4. It appears the upgrade PHP script doesn’t change that setting.

If you're already running ZendTo on the server, just update the RPM/DEB file via yum or apt-get.
No need to do a fresh installation at all.

The installer is designed for *new* ZendTo servers.

Cheers,
Jules.

I tried some test accounts, and from the link of the user who first reported it to me with the same result. I also tired switching browsers and switch OS platforms with the same result. No one is in the Google site but me, and likewise no one gets into the server. But I verified the keys anyway and they are correct.



I gave a valiant effort to update to the new version, but stop during the rebuild of PHP. My server has mysql-5.5.45-1.el6.remi.x86_64 already installed, but the installed wanted mysql-5.1.73-7.el6. I could remove that, but then it wanted to remove zendto.noarch as a dependency and I could see that breaking the site. I may have to spin up a new server to transition to the new version.



During the process of the install, I found I was having troubles access the outside repositories. We have done some firewall changes, so I rebooted the server and both the repositories AND the ReCaptcha started working. I don’t quite why that affected it, but it seemed to.



Thanks for the help!
