1) Questions and Answers : Getting started : Signup issues (Message 47750)

Hello,

Just wanted to drop a note that new users are generally unable to sign up due to a lack of Terms of Service on the sign-up page. I managed to get by this by adding this snippet to the sign up form:

<input tabindex="0" type="checkbox" name="agree_to_terms_of_use">


Additionally, after signing up, I got these errors:

Warning: simplexml_load_file(): I/O warning : failed to load external entity "versions.xml" in /boincdata/boinc/project/lhcathome/html/user/download_software.php on line 106

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in /boincdata/boinc/project/lhcathome/html/user/download_software.php on line 108

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /boincdata/boinc/project/lhcathome/html/user/download_software.php on line 108


Possibly related to the recent BOINC server upgrade?
