[Solved]"TECHNICAL ERROR: unable to save account" on OPC

[Artizzz]

Hello!

 

I have noticed problem with account registration in OPC.

When I fill in registration form in OPC and click Save I get error:

 

TECHNICAL ERROR: unable to save account

Details:

Error thrown: [object XMLHttpRequest]

Text status: parsererror

 

 

Although it throws error, after removing error message and refreshing page all seems ok.

 

And this error are in version 1.4.6.2.

no one knows how to solve it?

I have posted an example on how to debug the ajax call, so it will return the full string that the server returns (which is likely to show the error) http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/118800-technical-error-unable-to-add-to-cart/page__st__20__p__606750?do=findComment&comment=606750

 

You may also be able to see this in the "console" in firebug (without make the changes).

 

Once you know the exact error, post it here for more help

In firebug I get error:

<br />
<b>Warning</b>:  mail() [<a href='function.mail'>function.mail</a>]: SMTP server response: 530 SMTP authentication is required. in <b>.....\tools\swift\Swift\Plugin\MailSend.php</b> on line <b>161</b><br />
{"hasError":true,"errors":["Cannot send email"],"isSaved":true,"id_customer":32,"id_address_delivery":"37","id_address_invoice":"37","token":"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"}

It seems I don't have email sending option because I'am testing on localhost, am I right?

If yes, then why I don't get same error on regular registration form?

It looks like the OPC is trying to send an email, not sure why you did not have the issue in the regular checkout, but wither way, it should work if you use a live server or add mail capabilities in your localhost
