Hello, I'd like to change my gerrit username to "fjakop", can you please do this for me?
Thanks.

The registration of a new email adress fails too. I get the confirmation and do click the link but then the Gerrit page goes black and shows "invalid token".
I am logged in to Gerrit at the time i click the link as the manual states.

I've updated your record and flushed the cache so this should be done.

Comment 3 Frank Jakop CLA 2015-09-15 01:25:44 EDT
Thanks, but registering a new email adress still fails with "invalid token"
Comment 4 Frank Jakop CLA 2015-09-15 01:27:07 EDT
Is reopening the rigth way or should I file a new bug report for the "invalid token"issue?
Comment 5 Denis Roy CLA 2015-09-15 07:51:44 EDT
We actually don't allow registering other email addresses in Gerrit, since the email address (and your identity) is tied closely to our IP rules.

The next version of Gerrit should have an option to disable registering additional email addresses, since we've asked for that feature.
Comment 6 Frank Jakop CLA 2015-09-15 08:04:46 EDT
So how do I change the email address? The one registered will expire soon.
Comment 7 Denis Roy CLA 2015-09-15 08:05:39 EDT
You have to change it at your account:

Closing.
