[Bug 1089136] [NEW] "Add me as friend" results in error message

 

Public bug reported:

Reproduced on demo.mahara.org (1.6 stable)

When you have 
- your friend settings set to "New friends are automatically authorised" and
-  the "Friends" block on your profile page and
- made your profile page public and
- do not yet any friends and 
- a person who is not logged in views your profile page,

they see the "Add me to your friends" button. When they click on it, the
generic Mahara error message

"Mahara: Site unavailable 
A nonrecoverable error occurred. This probably means you have encountered a bug in the system"

comes up instead of logging you in and adding you to the list of friends
of that user.
