I have 2 sites running Phpnuke and postnuke and the problem is that when users sign up the server were supposed to send them an email along with their password.... Well this isn't happening.... Can anyone hook it up with some information :)

I had the same problem with a couple message boards. Is your sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail ?

Yup...

Have you tried using

/usr/sbin/sendmail -t

Do you mean in the php script or within the configuration of php.ini on the server?

In the configuration script for the message board it should ask you to enter the destination of sendmail. You probabley have it configured like this:

/usr/sbin/sendmail

Try to enter this instead:

/usr/sbin/sendmail -t

In some distrobutions of PHP on Cpanel servers the mail() function isn't included....

Hi!
The first step would be to see if it is a sendmail problem or a php problem.
Here's what you could do. Write a simple program in php that would send you mail. If it works then there is something wrong with the way you have configured nuke.
Try something like this

<?
mail("yourname@yourdomain", "My Subject", "Line 1\nLine 2\nLine 3");
echo "It worked";
?>


If you receive a mail then there is something wrong with your nuke configuration. Else you must recompile php to support mail. This is quite easy and straight forward..


I hope this helps.

Have a great day :)

Its a Cpanel Problem with their owned compiled version of php i think.

I had the same problem. Did you try this:

/usr/sbin/sendmail -t
