Hi,

I am having big problems sending email via php scripts.

I have set up a test script...

[PHP]mail("user@example.com", "Test email", "Test email");
echo "this is an email test";
?> [/PHP]

and watched my maillog

When I run it from root, it works, and the mail is delivered. When I run it from the browser no mail is delivered

In the maillog for the failed attempts I get...

[PHP]Feb 15 21:33:51 servername qmail: 1045344831.225720 new msg 6193285
Feb 15 21:33:51 servername qmail: 1045344831.225790 info msg 6193285: bytes 262 from qp 5896 uid 48
Feb 15 21:33:51 servername qmail: 1045344831.228897 end msg 6193285
[/PHP]

Email works fine in cgi scripts from the server, but not via any php scripts on the server

Running 5.0.5 on RH 7.3

Any thoughts?

Try putting a from address in the headers


mail("someone@somewhere.com", "Subject", "Message", "From: Name n");

i think there is a post on this somewhere as to have to fix it

I have the same problem with my php scripts. Whitelisting 127.0.0.1./24 doesn't work.

This shouldn't be necessary if Psa is working properly.

I find this to be strange...as the above script sends mail everytime on my plesk 7.3 rpm box...(dual xeon btw here at RS).

here's my result:

Mar 12 02:58:38 plesk qmail: 1047459518.089612 new msg 5079176
Mar 12 02:58:38 plesk qmail: 1047459518.089787 info msg 5079176: bytes 245 from qp 4320 uid 48
Mar 12 02:58:38 plesk qmail: 1047459518.098607 end msg 5079176

Recieved nothing.

Dear Customer,

PHP is now properly sending mail. I changed a configuration setting in

/etc/php.ini

Here is what I changed:
[root@plesk mailnames]# grep qmail-inject /etc/php.ini
sendmail_path = /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject

For systems with qmail you need to use "qmail-inject" instead of
"sendmail".

If you have any other problems then please feel free to describe them in
detail and we will endeavor to address them to the best of our ability.

Thanks for using RackShack.net.

If you had to do that..then your symlinks for sendmail were not working properly...but anyway..glad it works for you now...

I have made the changes to [root@server mailnames] and in /etc/php.ini...to no avail.

I'm just reading up on symlinks.

What is the correct syntax to get this working?

Thanks!

for the plesk standard it would be:

ln -s /usr/local/psa/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail

for the rpm install it would be:

ln -s /var/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail
