Variable names seem to be case sensitive in PHP. We're running PHP v5.0.4 on Windows Server 2003/IIS 6, migrating an existing installation from a server running Windows 2000 Server SP6. We're using the Sendmail utility found at http://www.glob.com.au/sendmail/ for mail functionality. The mail forms weren't working. We were getting "Could not execute mail delivery program in..." PHP errors. The IT staff was pulling its hair out going over IIS 6 and php.ini minutiae. Finally I noticed a variable name in the email form page that had a capital letter where it was defined and a lower-case when in was used in the mail() function. I fixed the capitalization and all is well. Beware. ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 206.169.207.38 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/66983 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66983/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66983/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66983/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66983/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66983/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66983/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66983 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/66983 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
