[0.5.2] Can't login and self registration not working

[jeffshead]

When attempting to login or self registering a new account, I get a "SERVICE CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE! Error No. [500]" on the screen and the following errors in the log:

Any ideas?
I just performed a clean install of RC 0.5.2. It used to work in RC 0.4x. I also noticed there is no password field in the users table of the RC 0.5.2 database but there is one in the RC 0.4x database.


UPDATE:
I manually added the password field to the database and it now seems to work. Is this a bug in the RC 0.5.2 release? Shouldn't the installer have created the password field?

The password field is required for the 'savepassword' plugin. It is not part of the default database structure. This is not a bug.

Thank you for the reply. It's been a while since I've installed RC and I just don't recall manually adding that field to the database.

Please change status to solved.
