Description

While creating the dummy survey for Icinga (Feature #14859) I realized that we’re probably missing PHP libraries if some day we want to use CAPTCHA.

I configured the dummy survey to require a CAPTCHA before opening before I wanted to prevent filling up our database with spam.

See https://survey.tails.boum.org/index.php/372383?lang=en.

I would try installing php-imagick.

Installed the requested package and https://survey.tails.boum.org/index.php/372383?lang=en looks better but I don’t see the equation I’m supposed to solve (BTW I bet the “solving an equation” terminology would discourage a bunch of my friends who’ve been traumatized with maths at school).

I’ll let you check what’s wrong and close this ticket if it’s nothing I should fix.

  • Target version deleted (Tails_3.5)
  • Parent task deleted (Feature #14540)
  • Deliverable for deleted (299)

I don’t know why the CAPTCHA is not displayed. I don’t have access to the logs so I don’t know if that creates an Apache error or something. I checked on the LimeSurvey website and couldn’t find any reference to this.

The next step would be for me to compare with my prototype installation and understand what it takes to have CAPTCHAs working there.

But for the time being I don’t really need CAPTCHAs and so I won’t fix that now as it seems more complicated than it looked at first sight (and now the dummy survey for the monitoring is returing HTTP 200 Success).

Also removing this from SponsorW.

There was nothing bad showing up in the logs but now I got a notification on the LimeSurvey interface:

Warning! The CAPTCHA settings won't have any effect because you don't have the required GD library activated in your PHP configuration.

I understand that it is about this library:

Could you install the php-gd package?
