#19822 [Fbk]: Server error using mail() function and ISAPI

ID: 19822 Updated by: mfischer@php.net Reported By: logico@avantel.net Status: Feedback Bug Type: IIS related Operating System: Windows 2000 Server SP3 PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip The latest NON-STABLE snapshot contains a more improved error handling so instead of the useless "server error" you will get the real error message from the server. Looking briefly at your line I think you're either missing an SMTP directive or the "sendmail_from" directive which both are required for Win32.

Check from the phpinfo() output to what value SMTP is set. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-08 15:49:07] logico@avantel.net Thank you for replying! That's not the problem because go the the cmd and type: telnet smtp.uservers.net 25 And it connects perfectly, I can do all the HELO, TO, RCPT, etc... and it works without a problem ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-08 15:10:22] iliaa@php.net The error you are seeing implies that there somekind of a problem using the SMTP server you've specified in you php.ini. Please verify that the specified SMTP server is avaliable and working correctly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-08 14:39:20] logico@avantel.net I want to use the mail function but it always trigger the following warning: Warning: Server Error in D:\Web\phpcollab\mail.php on line 3 I tried to run PHP as ISAPI and CGI and it's the same problem. The source of mail.php is: <?php mail ("logico@avantel.net", "My subject", "Line 1\nLine 2\nLine 3"); ?> I'm almost sure that this is a bug because I've installed PHP plenty of times in different machines and it's the first time I have this problem. Thank you in advance! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19822&edit=1
