failed sending email error

Failed sending email :: PHP ::

DEBUG MODE

Line : 234
File : /mnt/web_j/d20/s36/a000mjfm/www/phpbb/nfphpbb/includes/emailer.php

the above error seems to be happening frequently when replying to posts and/or sending a private message. when i open emailer.php and attempt to go to line 234, i just get a message saying "line number out of range". this error isn't coming up everytime, just occasionaly on a reply to a post or pm. it's getting kind of irritating. can anyone tell me what this means? could it be just a bad email address for one of my registered users? i'm kind of at a loss here.

thanks!

Zitat:

That means there is a problem with your PHP SMTP setting, best thing to do is to set it in the ACP.

Go to the ACP->General Config->Scroll Down near end->Set the SMTP.

Make sure you select "Use SMTP Server for email" to YES.

i to have this error, and if i use the smtp server it gives a different error.

however i created a usergroup with just the admin and mod staff as members and it happily emails them without errors using either setting.

this is baffling me.

using sendmail
Failed sending email :: PHP ::

Line : 234
File : emailer.php

using smtp i can get a similar error

You have to set it to use SMTP.

Make sure you select "Use SMTP Server for email" to YES.

dude i tried it all ways up! smtp on, off half the settings missing etc etc
and it fails also that wouldn't explain why it emails members of the user group and not all forum members.

it seems to fail after sending a few emails out, like it hits one that it doesn't like!

I have a similar issue. When an e-mail is triggered I am getting:

Failed sending email :: PHP ::
DEBUG MODE
Line : 234
File : emailer.php

and if I switch to SMTP I get an error indicating the php file involved with SMTP.

Since my last post, I have installed phpBB2 next to phpBB2+ with its own database and phpBB2 is sending email notifications just fine with sendmail.

So the issue is that phpBB2+ is not sending e-mails with either sendmail or SMTP and it is printing this error:

Failed sending email :: PHP ::
DEBUG MODE
Line : 234
File : emailer.php

for sendmail and a similar error for SMTP while phpBB2 is working with no e-mail errors.

I also tried all the e-mail functions, mass mail, adding to a group, registration, post reply, etc. and none are working with phpBB2+ while all are working with phpBB2.

Can someone help with this. It is not a server issue. phpBB2+ is acting up.
Thanks,
Tom

And the user, password and host url for the SMTP are entered on ACP, too?

Yes, yes, yes!

Are you saying that the local mail function does not work?

Please address the issue here. Sendmail is working side by side using phpBB2 and will not work with phpBB2+ now help me find out why.
Thanks,
Tom
