Unusual issue with user registration.

[badran]

I have a script that creats a new Board username, please see code below.


The issue is that I am getting the usernametaken error, this even happens on usernames that are not taken and that meet all requirements.

The strangest thing is that an account actually does get registered eventhough $userdm->save(); does not get called.

Any help would be appretiated.

    $newuserid = $userdm->save();
    $ReturnString .= "<li>Account Created.</li>";
