I tried again and confirm the version number. I never got this pannel saying that my request will be processed by an adminstrator. Maybe the installation was incomplete? Is this pannel outside the standard src files? I receive the mail as administrator, but the accout is already valid BEFORE I validate it.
This was working in previous versions, i.e. the entry was not created at all. And login wasn't possible.
We went back to 2.8.0 as the server is regularly crashing with 2.9.0 and we have to keep it alive for our running experiment. We are trying to isolate and reproduce the problem...

Try to use the simple config file, and see what happens there. Maybe it's a config option you use differently in the experiment. If you identify the config option which triggers the problem, I can probably reproduce it and fix it. Concerning crashes of 2.9.0: We have it running stably for our experiments, that's why I released it. But there are major changes since 2.8.0, mainly the Kerberos authentification (actually people from CERN asked for that). So it could be that in your case there are problems I don't see. In that case you have to test with which options in the config file the problems start. If elogd crashes, a stack dump would maybe also be helpful for me.

Dear Stefan, after a long time I managed to get a test setup. The line that creates the misbehaviour is
Guest Menu Commands = List, Find, Login, Help
which seems inocuous! But with this line a user with inactive account can login without validation. Without this line I get also the proper web page indicating that the account has to be activated when I register as new user.
Another little annoyance: When a user is prevented from login ("The account is currently deactivated") there is NO WAY to login, as any action with Elog tries to use the (non activated) username and password. I can't get back the login page!
