Hey,

I’m having trouble creating a new user with the login\_engine signup  
method. Whenever I try and register a new user from the login page →   
register as a new user, I get redirected to the signup page with the  
message that an error has occurred since some email could not be sent.  
As such I can’t create any users. I followed the installation  
instructions at [rails-engines.org](http://rails-engines.org) (beautiful site by the way)  
religiously, added the config :use\_email\_notification, false |  
statement, but it didn’t work. Any ideas? If it’d help for me to post  
some of my code here, please let me know!

Thanx!  
Gustav

You definitely have this in your environment.rb?

module LoginEngine  
config :salt,   
config :use\_email\_notification, false  
end

If so, check your logs for any error messages, and try and post the  
relevant parts here.
