2 setup questions (eAuction)
01/24/05 at 20:26:18
 
First off, VERY nice script...... thank you

A couple of questions..... The script doesn't seem to be sending out emails. I"m trying to use SMTP and the relevant part of the config file is;

# 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'}            = '/Your/Path/To/sendmail'; # no additional options please
 
# or Configure your MAIL HOST (SMTP)
   #$config{'mailhost'}      = 'mail.rhtubs.com';    


Secondly, when I try to get my "lost" passsword the page that comes up says "You are on your local server so this is just for testing". But it's a real webserver and I have that setting in the config set as below:
   
# Set this from 0 to 1 if the script is running with a real Web-Server
   $config{'web_server'}      = 1;

Any ideas on either of these???

Again, GREAT script......thank you

Looks like the script can't find your sendmail program.
In this case the value of $config{'web_server'} has been set to '0'.
If you want to use the SMTP option, you must uncomment that line (delete the leading #)

well, I feel a bit foolish... thanks, i somehow missed that hash mark........... but, you might want to make a slight change to the downloadable file and move that paticular hashmark all the way to the left? As it is, it reads;

# 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

shouldn't it initially read,

# 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
