Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-09 12:50:57] djlopez@mail.com I got 3 files, part of an eShop: config.php // contains $mailto func.php // contains sendmail(); send.php // calls sendmail(); OK, the problem was, I execute send.php: <? include("config.php"); include("func.php"); sendmail(); //now HTML-code ?> sendmail() contains: <? function sendmail(){ global $mailto; //and other vars //now last line mail($mailto, "Any subject", $body, "From: any@adress.com"); } ?> Now, PHP crashed without a reason, server error page appears, nothing wrote to the error.log! I changed the mail-function in: mail("the@recipient.com", "Any subject", $body, "From: any@adress.com"); Now it worked fine! Dunno if its a bug, but it was difficult to catch the error! Apache Server, tested with PHP 4.0.6 and 4.1.2 (err, sorry 4 bad english) greets, Lopez ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16516&edit=1
