I couldn't add users since installing location module, and so I read and tried a few things. It seems from http://drupal.org/node/#635574 that location module somehow interferes with page_callback in the menu_router table for admin/user/user/create row.

I tried something out of curiosity and alarmingly it turns out that it is possible to use this path - admin/user/user/register - without being logged-in - to get a full listing of all users in the system!! It is not possible to do anything with the list - VBO has no operations in the drop down list - but THIS OBVIOUSLY SHOULD NOT HAPPEN! This happens on 2 of my sites with location module installed. It doesn't happen on my other sites...

Is it just me? I sincerely hope I am not raising alarm bells for something stupid I have done!
Please try it for yourself if you are using this module.

I'm not seeing this.

What is "VBO?"

Views Bulk Operations.
What do you get if you try this path as an anonymous user?

Access Denied, as expected for anything inside admin/.

I inspected the menu hooks for the location modules and found nothing suspect. There's always the possibility that location is tickling a bug in another module of course.

Hi bdragon,

Thanks for responding so quickly. May I ask what access permissions module/s you are using?

None, this is on my internal drupal 6 test site that I use to test changes to gmap and location. Core, location, gmap, cck, views, devel is pretty much all that's turned on.

So you don't have a real world live site?!
I strongly suspect one of my access permissions modules is conflicting with it. A process of elimination...

Location/GMap is one of my favourite modules BTW. I am very grateful indeed. They are excellent.

Without a solid steps to repeat I'm marking this as "postponed (maintainer needs more info)".

@michael38walker - if you could install a brand new site and try to reproduce the problem that would be very helpful.
