I have a client on my webserver who is complaining that users aren't able to sign up for access to his phpwebsite forums. What does phpwebsite need to have to play nicely with sendmail. I'm using exim, but there is a command /usr/bin/sendmail there for backwards compatibility with exim. (Mailwrapper scripts) when I just type sendmail at the prompt I get: patrick@bender patrick $ sendmail Exim is a Mail Transfer Agent. It is normally called by Mail User Agents, not directly from a shell command line. Options and/or arguments control what it does when called. For a list of options, see the Exim documentation. patrick@bender patrick $ Is this right, or is there something else I need to set up. Thanks for the help and Happy Holidays! Patrick Twohig. |

The account signup uses the PHP Mail function or PEAR Mail class. Check you can signup yourself, Check you've not disabled sending mail in your php config. Some hosts don't allow sending mail from php. Shaun aegis design - http://www.aegisdesign.co.uk |

There is a recent bug that may be causing this. I have posted it (along with a patch to fix it) in the project site on Sourceforge earlier this week. Does your PHP server by chance run with Safe Mode enabled? If so, then this bug is causing it - two problems specifically: 1) No users can register with the site 2) The "lost password" functionality will be broken as well. Please see two of the most recent bug filings at the project Bug Tracker: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=15539&atid=115539 # 1089617 # 1086940 Hopefully one of the project devs can submit my patches to the tree soon! The problem has to do with "safe mode" restrictions to the PHP mail() function. Let me know if you have any questions. Greg T.
