    Posted by jluong posts: 9

    Hi,

    I am new to Tikiwiki. I have installed it on a Solaris box. So far so good. I set up an email notification for new user registration as admin. I created new users, but still I don't get any email.

    The PHP info page shows that my sendmail_from = no value and sendmail_path = /usr/lib/sendmail -t -i.

    This command below works on the Solaris box where I installed Tikiwiki and PHP.

    echo hi | mail myaddress at site.com works.

    Any suggestion where I can troubleshoot. In the Admin, General page, I set the sender email to a valid email address.

    Thanks,
    Joe

    We just use the PHP mail routine

    www.php.net and search for mail and base your tests around that. Could just be a PHP setting somewhere.

    You can try using the log of my setup at: http://219.93.41.229:86/wiki/tiki-index.php?page=Setting+Up+Email+Update. I had problems too. Mind, this log is for beginners, i had no idea what i was doing and went down many dead-ends before finding out what the problem was. All i really needed was the client authorization setup for sendmail for relay server. Your problem is probably different, but just in case my log might be useful.

    Sorry didn't read your post properly, it looks like a different problem.
