Title: e-mails w/ sendmail
Post by aecvizpro on 05/04/06 at 22:57:07

Hi;
I have the script running, but e-mails are not appearing to be sent out. I get a msg. on the screen like "You are on your local server
so this is just for testing"

here are my settings:

# The name of your servers cgi-bin directory
$config{'cgi_dir'} = 'cgi-bin'; # Default for most servers

# The cgi-bin subdirectory where your eAuction.pl will be stored
$config{'auction_dir'} = 'eAuction161';

# The Path to a 'NON-WEBACCESSABLE' directory of your system
# Maybe you have to chmode it if you use your own setting

$config{'get_path'} = 1; # Set this from 1 to 0 if you want to use your own setting
$config{'basepath'} = '/home/aecvizpr/public_html/eAuctions';

# You need to assign either a mail program or
# a mail host so e-mails can be sent out.
# Configure your MAIL PROGRAM

$config{'get_mail'} = 0; # Set this from 1 to 0 if you want to use your own setting
$config{'mailprog'} = '/usr/sbin/sendmail'; # no additional options please

# or Configure your MAIL HOST (SMTP)
#$config{'mailhost'} = 'http://YourSMTP-Host';

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

That means "the script can't find the the path to the 'sendmail' program."

Take a look at the following thread on this forum, it might help you:
