Critical error The registration confirmation email can't be send!

[orb353]

url orbconstruction.com/cpg/index.php
I just installed CPG 1.5. Install went fine. Configured everything in Admin control panel. The site is hosted by IX webhosting on a windows server. I first left smtp info blank. No email sent. I then changed to my domain mail server.
mail.orbconstruction.com   with correct user name and password. I get error page.
I also tried smtp.orbconstruction.com. It will not send registration emails, I get the error listed in tittle.

There is no SMTP server running at smtp.orbconstruction.com. There is one running at mail.orbconstruction.com, so that should work. Check Coppermine's error log to see what the SMTP error is.

[orb353]

\include\functions.inc.php

set up as mail.orbconstruction.com
I can log into horde with firefox into this account, using the username and password, that I also put into CPG.

Perhaps your host is blocking the outbound connection. You'll need to take it up with them.

[orb353]

I am chatting with ix webhosting, he said to change to blank, use sendmail, but use the username and password. Now it says the email was sent, but I do not receive it. I am still working with ix on their end. Any suggestions.

Thanks
Oliver

[orb353]

Nibbler,
I see that you registered, did you receive the confirmation email?

[orb353]

Ix webhosting created a test php  sendmail page. He dropped it into the cpg folder,for my domain, and it does send an email, and it gets picked up into my inbox. Coppermine still will not send the registration emails. I do not receive any error messages in coppermine, it just doesn't send them. The smtp fields are all set to blank.

Thanks
Oliver

Some time ago I had the same problem. The cause was that my webhost blocked specific domains as sender email address (gmail / google mail in my case). Please try to enter a different 'Gallery administrator email'.

[orb353]

I have tried all kind of stuff, OI could not get it send email, ecards or anything.
I eventually deleted  version 1.5 and uploaded 1.4- the stable version, and installed it. .Same exact deal. I tried all blank smtp setting, to use sendmail. It would not work. I used my dominan mail server. mail.orbconstruction.com  with my user and pasword, the same info i enter into other php mailers ,and outlook on my workstation machine. It still will not email registrations. With the smtp settings set my mail server it says


\register.php

    * Notice line 228: Undefined index: user_profile5

\include\mailer.inc.php

    * Warning line 1693: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to mail.orbconstruction.com:25
    * Warning line 1693: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to mail.orbconstruction.com:25

WHen the settings are left blank it does not give this message, the only notice it gives is
\register.php

    * Notice line 228: Undefined index: user_profile5

I changed the url address it is now
http://www.orbconstruction.com/pg/index.php

If someone wants to login and look at the settings
the login is orb
the password is 7777
this is the admin login.

sendmail should work. I chatted with IX webhosting last week and the tech wrote a little php sendmail page to test the sendmail function on the server. It worked correctly.this is the link to the test page.
http://www.orbconstruction.com/pg/mail_test_windows.php
It does send an email to at  oliver@sublime-salon.com

Thanks for the help.

[Nibbler]

Please post the source code for the test script.

[orb353]

<?php
// The message

$sendto = "oliver@sublime-salon.com";
$subject = "php mail test";
$message = 'Test message using PHP mail-from pg folder()';
$header = "From: webmaster@".$_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"]."\n";
$header .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n";

$message = 'Test message using PHP mail from pg folder()';
$subject='Test';
// Send

ini_set("sendmail_from","webmaster@".$_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"]);

if (mail($sendto,$subject,$message,$header))
{
echo 'Mail sent from pg folder!';
} else
{
echo 'Error! Mail was not sent.';
};

?>

Andre' ,
I have tried leaving everything blank, but I never get an ecard that was sent, or the registration email. I have tried it with my domain smtp server    mail.orbconstruction.com      with the user name and password. It then gives the error, Cannot connect to mail.orbconstruction.com:25   
The site is served on a windows server. I love the photogallery, I just want to work out the email issue. Any Ideas?
Thanks

[orb353]

This is the log using
mail.orbconstruction.com  as the smtp server.

You should change the phpcode@opentransfer.com to webmaster@orbconstruction.com and then keep the SMTP settings blank.

[orb353]

ini_set("sendmail_from","webmaster@".$_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"]);
or
ini_set("sendmail_from","webmaster@orbconstruction.com"]);



this needs to be inserted somewhere in the php code. I am not sure where to insert it replace current ini_set("sendmail_from"
Where should I put it?
Thanks
Oliver

[orb353]

I finally got it to work. The first time it runs the script it times out. After that it works perfectly every time.
I replaced the original php code with this in the mailer.inc.php  file
the bold is what I inserted

I replaced
ini_set("sendmail_from", $this->Sender);
with
ini_set("sendmail_from","webmaster@orbconstruction.com");


I then inserted
ini_set("sendmail_from","webmaster@orbconstruction.com");
            $params = sprintf("-oi -f %s", $this->Sender);

            $rt = @mail($to, $this->EncodeHeader($this->Subject), $body, $header);
in the ELSE clause, so it has no choice but to send the email

* Sends mail using the PHP mail() function. 
     * @access private
     * @return bool
     */
    function MailSend($header, $body) {
        $to = "";
        for($i = 0; $i < count($this->to); $i++)
        {
            if($i != 0) { $to .= ", "; }
            $to .= $this->to[$i][0];
        }

        if ($this->Sender != "" && strlen(ini_get("safe_mode"))< 1)
        {
            $old_from = ini_get("sendmail_from");
           //ini_set("sendmail_from", $this->Sender);

      ini_set("sendmail_from","webmaster@orbconstruction.com");
            $params = sprintf("-oi -f %s", $this->Sender);
            $rt = @mail($to, $this->EncodeHeader($this->Subject), $body,
                        $header, $params);
        }
        else



      $old_from = ini_get("sendmail_from");
       
      ini_set("sendmail_from","webmaster@orbconstruction.com");
            $params = sprintf("-oi -f %s", $this->Sender);

            $rt = @mail($to, $this->EncodeHeader($this->Subject), $body, $header);

        if (isset($old_from))
            ini_set("sendmail_from","webmaster@orbconstruction.com");


        if(!$rt)
        {
            $this->SetError($this->Lang("instantiate"));
            return false;
        }

        return true;

Please test with this version of mailer.inc.php without any modifications. Make sure webmaster@orbconstruction.com or something else at your domain is set as the gallery email in config.

Then you're not running Coppermine 1.5 are you.

[orb353]

I started with 1.5, could not get it to email, so I deleted 1.5 and uploaded 1.4. That is the version I edited and was able to get to work. I really want to use 1.5. So, I just created another db for 1.5 version, and I am uploading files as we speak. I will stick the file I downloaded from you into 1.5, and see if it works.
