Just setting up Portal... seems anyone that hits "Register" gets assigned a new account instantly. How do I require that a registration request be approved by an administrator role?

Strangely, this isn't working. I can try and add this property, but then after a minute or so the page refreshes and the property is not set.

Hmm, are the curly braces set correctly?

Yep, and typed in rather than copy pasted (to prevent extra characters being pasted in). Still doesn't work, curious.

Strange. I'm on 10.5.1 on Linux, works for me, the 'create an account' button is gone. Which version are you working with?

Also working on 10.5.1 on Linux. Hmm, do you think changing this through the web adaptor rather than on the server makes any difference? I accessed the admin page through the web adaptor to make these changes.

I doubt it - I also went though my web adaptor (on Tomcat, installed on the same box as my Portal). Is there anything notable in the portal logs?

Nothing notable. Also using Tomcat. 

I do get, "The web server was found to be stopped. Restarting it" which coincides with my attempts to update properties. Maybe there is issue where it knows it has to restart Portal to apply changes, but it is reloading an old configuration as it does so for some reason?

Which version Tomcat are you working with?
