I was trying to figure out the issue that "forget password page" doesn't work for UCNRS. After changing the username/password for UCNRS in ldapweb.cfg file, it still doesn't work -giving an error "User not found in database. Please try again"

So I decided to try a nceas account, the page still doesn't work, gave the same error as the the UCNRS account.

I also monitor the error log of apache, both nceas and UCNRS accounts showed the same error message:

We tested unaffiliated accounts and they worked.

I guess "change password page" will have some problem.

Mike, when you work on this bug, don't user UCNRS account. This account may have more issues.
