Title: Local Server problem
Post by Zeekdragon on 09/19/05 at 16:36:23

After setup and installing everything seems to run fine, but no matter what computer I try to register a new account with I get...

I also tried changing the config file from
# Set this from 0 to 1 if the script is running with a real Web-Server
$config{'web_server'} = 0;

to 1 and back to 0 with the same results.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks,

That means: the script can't find the the path to the 'sendmail' prog.

Running
http://YourDomain/cgi-bin/eAuction161/eAuction.pl?action=test
also creates a user named Dieter.

If the error message means that the script cannot find the path to Sendmail, why did Zeekdragon receive the
Thank you for registering... email? Or did I misunderstand that part of his initial posting?

Actually all of this is displayed on the register screen on the bottom

I'm using JMail as my sendmail program, but all it is, is email dll files with Windows XP IIS http server

I got it to work.. seems that my config file had a typo in it that I missed.

I removed Jmail also and everything runs fine :)

I have this exact same problem as the original poster.

I'm not sure I can find that path either!

Suggestions appreciated.

:P

To find the path to sendmail - create a php file that has only :

Code:

<?php
echo "version is: <b>".phpversion()."</b><br>\n";
echo "Lots of info: <br>\n";
phpinfo();
?>

upload to your server, then call it in your browser - it will tell you all the variables you need --
be SURE to delete it from your server when done -- (Security Risk)
