no emails sent

Hi

from a previous thread I modified the mail_php file

PHP:
---------
$mailObj = mail($mailTo,$mailSubject,$mailContent,$mailHeader, "-f".$mailFrom);
---------

for the security assist pages, make the same code change to the WA_SecurityAssist/Mail_PHP.php file.

***************

Since the modification (thanks for that) the email side of the user registration solution works perfectly however the pages created by the security wizard do not send emails.

I've attatched the php file can you see anything wrong

thanks

Ian

Please send a copy oif the security assist email password page so I can see how it was configured.

Hi Jason

I've attached the files you might want to look at

thanks

Ian

It doesn't look like you included the Email Password page. I need to look at the code on the page that you applied the email password server behavior.

Hi Jason

is this the file you want?

thanks

Ian

Yes, that's the page I needed.

Interesting it looks like it is configured properly.

When you submit this page, are you redirected to the photographers_LogIn.php page?

If you are not redirected to the photographers_LogIn.php page, change line 25:

"failRedirect" => "photographers_EmailPW.php",

to:

"failRedirect" => "photographers_EmailPW.php?failed=true",

and try again. when the page reloads, do you see the failed=true query string on the end of the address in the address bar?


try deleting the WA_SecurityAssist/Mail_PHP.php file from the server, then re uploading the modified one to make sure the changes are being uploaded to the server.

Hi Jason

OK I changed the code as you said and when I fill in the email request I am not sent back to the login page but I do see in the address bar

failed=true

Where do I go from here?

Shall I delete the pages and start again?

cheers

Ian

So that means that it is not finding the email address you are entering in the database.


Check the following:
Make sure you are using an email address the database.

Double check the UserEmail column in the photographers table to make sure that email addresses are being stored properly when a user registers.

Hi Jason

you were correct is that the info was not be ing written to the database.

It now is and the email is formatted correctly.

I filled in the password reminder and got all excited because it returned me to the logon screen.

However still not email received.

Off to beddie byes here now 10pm a

any ideas where I go from here

thanks

Ian

Try leaving the From Display Name blank in the Email Password server behavior.


Keep in mind that if you edit the server behavior, the mail_PHP.php file will be overwritten, you will need to add the -f argument to the mail() function call again.


make sure the email is not being trapped as spam also.

If all else fails, check with the host. Ask them to look into the SMTP server error logs to see why the server is not relaying the email.
