Hi,

We have an issue with our DNN installation (version 07.02.02 (303)).  Links in emails are taking users to a 404 Not Found page.  For example, the link in the password reset email and the link in the account verification email.

I changed the link in the account verification email from:

http://[Portal:URL]/default.aspx?ctl=Login&username=[Custom:0]&verificationcode=[Custom:1]

to

http://[Portal:URL]/Login.aspx?username=[Custom:0]&verificationcode=[Custom:1]

Notice that I've replaced 'default.aspx?ctl=Login' with 'Login.aspx' and this fixed the issue with the account verification email.  However, we still have a problem with the password rest email.

It looks like any url with 'ctl=????' isn't finding the module for some reason.

Has anybody else experience this?

Got it sorted.  Here's what the problem was in case it helps anyone else:

In the web.config there waqs a section like so:

<security>
    <requestFiltering>
         <denyQueryStringSequences>
              <add sequence="ctl" />
        </denyQueryStringSequences>
    </requestFiltering>
</security>

Which was denying access to any url with ctl in it.  Remove this and now it works fine.

Great Job on this.

I was having the same problem since following modifications recommended in Re-captcha suggestions.

 

Removing this section from web.config has also allowed '?ctl=' to function again.

'?ctl=register' is now removed through filtering.

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR IDENTIFYING THIS.
