I just realized yesterday, that nobody is able anymore to register an account at my site.

if somebody clicks at the "register" link eiter on the k2_user modul or the original joomla login modul.

i will get an error 500 (internal server error)

mobtivity.com/index.php/de/component/users/?view=registration

that is what it says.

if i disable the k2-user profile plugin, i will get the original joomla registration site and it is working fine.

any ideas or fixes?

i am already on 2.5.6 even on your lates SVN from today.

still the same thing. I dont really know any other plug in. is it maybe recaptcha? because k2 offers recaptcha and joomla itself now too?

i figured out the problem!

YouJoomla, are the worst coders in the world nothing is working and their plugins screw more up then making it better and the play the ball to me, if I tell them.

If I disable YJ K2 Image Slider it works again...

Hi I encountered a similar problem and found the solution as follows:

The new version of Joomla - 2.5 has a captcha form element built in - which is great. However, if you install K2 (2.5.6) this also uses the same ReCaptcha element. Unless you get the settings just right the two will conflict in strange ways. In order for the system to work you need to follow these three steps:

Disable the Captcha -ReCaptcha component in the Joomla Component Manager
Go to the User Manager and then to the Options (Users Configuration) and set Captcha to be "none selected"
Go to the K2 configuration and enable Captcha and enter your public and private keys.


If you don't follow all three steps, then both captcha's will be used but only one will be displayed (the K2 one I think) and you will get error messages similar to this:

"The words you typed did not match the ones displayed. Please try again."

Or if you disable just the K2 Captcha then you get this error message:

Empty solution not allowed.

thanks, that helped me a lot

This works for me. Thank you!
