php mail() function not working

[riquel]

anyway my problem is a permission one...

Could you please tell me what permission (CHMOD) should I put all my mail files to ??,

my mail() function ain't working because of these

Thanks

Not sure permissions. You might want to go to www.qmail.org, thats where I started. You could also fix the qmail issue by adding an MX record going to your hostname, I am not sure if that would work, but it might be worth a try.

HEY I think it's coming from SELINUX try writting "setenforce 0" into your root and see if it repairs. Beware, it's only temporary until the next reboot. See if it repairs anything

I fix this problem by upgrate for fresh OS version

same prob

Dear All!

I'm new with PLESK. Guess confixx was much more easy!

I've the same problem, PHP or Perl, sending mails with sendmail won't work. No error in runtime.

The PHP above works fine.

I found a lot in google, a lot people with same problem, but no solution. - Terrible!

This is my Perl:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use CGI::Carp 'fatalsToBrowser';

print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";

# Pfad zum SENDMAIL-Programm Ihres Servers.
my $sendmail = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';

# Empfaenger-Adresse.
my $recipient = 'Firstname <[email protected]>';
#Format: 'Name als Text <[email protected]>';

# Betreff der eMail.
my $subject = 'Mail Test';

# von wem kommt der Autoresponder
my $absender=$ENV{HTTP_HOST}.' <working_mailbox@my_plesk.de>';
#Format: 'Name als Text <[email protected]>';

open(MAIL, "|$sendmail -t") or die "FEHLER $sendmail: $!\n";
print MAIL "To: $recipient\n";
print MAIL "From:$absender\n";
print MAIL "Subject: $subject\n\n";
print MAIL "Hallo Welt!\n";
foreach(keys %ENV){
	print MAIL '$ENV{'.$_."}=>'".$ENV{$_}."'\n";
}

close(MAIL) or die "FEHLER Mail $sendmail: $!\n";

print "Mail wurde\n".
      "von Host '$ENV{HTTP_HOST}'\n".
      "an '$recipient'\n".
      "von'$absender'\n".
      "via '$sendmail' geschickt.";

exit;

That returns no errors.

I found this, sorry, its german:
http://hosteurope.de/faq/index.php?cpid=11073

Short translation:
In PHP you need a param "-f" with an email adress which is working in your PLESK.
e.g.
mail ($to, $subject, $message, $headers, "-f [email protected]");

At my server that returns an error, fifth param not allowed- something like that.

I really need your help!!!

Thx!

 

[esupport.org.ua]

It is a dns problem

 

[v5b3t]

can you explain that a bit, please?

Funny is, with web.de, something like gmx, I receive the mails from my perl program.

We test a lot, some adresses get mail, some not.

 

[wonski]

I'm also having problem with the PHP mail() function.

Its sometime can sent, sometime can't and return the following error:

PHP Warning: mail(): Could not execute mail delivery program '/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i'

The permission of that sendmail link is:

0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Oct 20 2005 /usr/sbin/sendmail -> /var/qmail/bin/sendmail

and permission for /var/qmail/bin/sendmail is:

12 -r-xr-xr-x 1 root qmail 9640 Aug 24 2005 /var/qmail/bin/sendmai

My /var/qmail/control/me file is correct, as it can sent out sometime.

Other servers which also with Plesk are alright. Only this particular server having the problem. Anyone know what could be the problem? Is that the setting or permission?

Thanks in advance

Wonski

emails will go to host like gmail, but not others. I set the me file; I use the test php form above and get mail sent for all emails I try. Only receive in a gmail type account though.

Any more ideas?

Could you plese enliten us all and give us the solution?

 

[Branislav Kovacevic]

This worked for me:

check out mta here:

/usr/sbin/alternatives --display mta

to chose from available MTA alternatives do:

alternatives --config mta

There are 3 programs which provide 'mta'.

Selection Command
-----------------------------------------------
+ 1 /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail
* 2 /var/qmail/bin/sendmail
3 /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix

selecting option 1 of 3 (default was option 2) fixed the problem for me.

Good Luck, hope this helps

I'm having exactly the same problem...
Sadly I can't find the file you are refering to. I tried to find them through the file manager and through the ftp but without success.
Could anyone help me please?

Thanks
