re: PEAR mail with SMTP authentication not working

Hello,

I'm using Universal Email 4 with PEAR mail over SMTP with authentication. The location to pear mail (D:\Additional\PHP5\PEAR) is correct and the email account where using to send the email but we are getting the following error;

-----------
Warning: require_once(D:\Additional\PHP5\PEARMail.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in D:\HostingSpaces\stormproofings\stormproofings.co.uk\wwwroot\webassist\email\PEAR_Mail_using_SMTP_php.php on line 229

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'D:\Additional\PHP5\PEARMail.php' (include_path='.;D:\Additional\PHP5\pear;./;./includes;D:\Additional\PHP5\PEAR\;D:\Additional\PHP5\') in D:\HostingSpaces\stormproofings\stormproofings.co.uk\wwwroot\webassist\email\PEAR_Mail_using_SMTP_php.php on line 229

-----------
One thing we did notice was that the extension was appending the link to PEAR with Mail.php so D:\Additional\PHP5\PEAR was changed to D:\Additional\PHP5\PEARMail.php

Can you help please.

Thanks, Stephen

you need to add a trailing slash to the path to pear.

instea of:
D:\Additional\PHP5\PEAR

use:
D:\Additional\PHP5\PEAR\

the path to pear is uesed to find the Pear Mail.php file on the server

so it should be finding:
D:\Additional\PHP5\PEAR\Mail.php

it can only do that if you add on the needed \ at the end.

Hello,

I added the additional \ slash as recommended but the error still exists?

See below.

Thanks, Stephen

This means that either the Pear Mail package is not installed on the server, or the Path to Pear is not correct.

you will need to contact the host for assistance.
