Hi,

I have installed the forum and most things work okay but I am having problems with email.php and also the registration email. It reports;

Warning: Server Error in D:\nightclubforum.co.uk\data\include\email.inc on line 142

Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at D:\nightclubforum.co.uk\data\include\email.inc:142) in D:\nightclubforum.co.uk\data\include\widgets.inc on line 159


I have looked extensively through your forum but can't find much info. I have tried the tests that you suggest to others and they all work okay - basically you can mail okay using mail() with PHP.

Any ideas? I thought you may have already sorted this for others so may have a fix to hand!

Thanks in advance, Sherka

The url is www.nightclubforum.co.uk by the way...

Does this error occur on email.php form or does it occur anytime FUDforum tries to send an email?

Also, could you run 1 more test for me please.

mail("Ilia <ilia(at)prohost(dot)org>", "Test Email", "Test Subject", "From: your_email\r\nReply-To: your_email\r\nErrors-To: ilia(at)prohost(dot)org");


See if this causes the error you are seeing.

Okie, if that code worked fine... then replace your email.php file with the one attached and then try sending an email using the email.php form.

It should work fine.

Sorry missed the previous question - it happens everytime FUD Forum tries to send a mail (mass email etc.)

Okie... try the attached email.php and let me know if email.php form works correctly or not.

If it does work without giving errors I will apply the fixes made to the rest of the email code.

Could you please join FUDforum's channel on irc ( irc.openprojects.net #fudforum) it would make it easier to analyze & solve the problem if we can converse real time.

If not let me know, I'll send you a debug script via email.

Sorry, I don't use IRC so it may take me longer to suss that than it will to send me the script!

Cheers, Sherka

I found the bug, it appears to have been a problem with your mail server since it didn't like the fact that PHP set sendmail_from field. Even though PHP docs explicitly say that option is for Win32!

Anyhow, I was able to fix the problem and you now have a working code on your server.

For everyone else who has this problem, the fix is in the CVS.
The 2 affected files are: core.inc and email.inc

Sterling work! I must admit, that is quite possibly the best bit of support I've ever had - nice one.

Thanks, Sherka
