Hello

My web app is based on DNN 4.0.2 and from time to time a user recieves the following message on the login page:

A critical error has occurred.
Input string was not in a correct format.

After some digging I found out that it happens because the user tried to login a wrong password and caused his account to lock.

It is possible to unlock this user via user accounts page available to the admin, but I could not find how to disable this lock.

Does anybody know how to disable the user lock (I don't mind that he tries a wrong password 100 times), also, does anybody know how to change the above message to a more understandable one (something like: you are locked, contact your admin...)

Thanks

Additionally, you may be able to alter the error message value in the localization files which are accessible in your Admin Menu > Languages page.

If you really must, you can change the source code, and then rebuild the DNN assembly.  You can get the source from the downloads page on this site.  Are you sure this requires a code change?
