shoot me...
I've come accros this a couple of times (in different sites) and still...
I use fr lang pack, last dev release...
it's about the cnt.23 // email contact form content part ...
cannot get it to work, I usually don't like to beg, but I'm in a hurry...
OG "explained" it a while ago, to be honest, didn't understand it...
I know some posts talk about it, but could not find the solution (and the worst part is that I think I already did it ... grrrrr)
Thx for any help, really.
Cheers
Anyone??????????????????????????????????????????????????

Kosse,
I just went through this in a project I'm working. Suprisingly, your problems probably do not relate to the language file. The error messages resulted from the server not having an SMTP server running on it. This thread was very helpful to me -

Let me know if you have further questions.

Hi Ben,
thank you for your reply, at least I feel less lonely
The thing is that I watched that topic (and even posted in it) and ...sadly that is not my problem as I always use the same provider for my sites and the mail function does work on the other ones, so I guess it's not the server.
I pointed to the language file because I remember (but not quite good enough) I had to tweak something to make it work on my other sites, the problem is that I can't remember WHAT I did
stupid but true...
So, I'm still stuck and any help/hint/solution would be
really appreciated...
Cheers

Hi Kosse
Could your problem be related to this:
Code: Select all
$BL['be_cnt_field'] = array("text"=>'texte', "email"=>'email', "textarea"=>'texte (multi-lignes)',
"hidden"=>'caché', "password"=>'mot de passe', "select"=>'sélectionner le menu',
"list"=>'menu de la liste', "checkbox"=>'checkbox', "radio"=>'bouton radio',
"upload"=>'upload fichier', "submit"=>'bouton d\'envoi', "reset"=>'bouton reset',
"break"=>'séparateur', "breaktext"=>'séparateur (texte)', "special"=>'texte (spécial)');
Cheers,

Ok, finally what I did (as I couldn't find the solution ??? ) was setting the mail function in conf.inc.php (/config/phpwcms/conf.inc.php) to smtp and not the default mail function
So, in conf.inc.php around the last line I modified this:
Code: Select all
// smtp values
$phpwcms['SMTP_FROM_EMAIL'] = 'webmaster@piezoworks.be'; // reply/from email address
$phpwcms['SMTP_FROM_NAME'] = 'phpwcms webmaster'; // reply/from name
$phpwcms['SMTP_HOST'] = 'localhost'; // SMTP server (host/IP)
$phpwcms['SMTP_PORT'] = 25; // SMTP-Server port (default 25)
$phpwcms['SMTP_MAILER'] = 'mail'; // default phpMailer: smtp, mail (default), sendmail
$phpwcms['SMTP_AUTH'] = 0; // sets SMTP_AUTH to ON/OFF
$phpwcms['SMTP_USER'] = ''; // default SMTP login (user) name
$phpwcms['SMTP_PASS'] = ''; // default SMTP password
to this:
Code: Select all
// smtp values
$phpwcms['SMTP_FROM_EMAIL'] = 'webmaster@piezoworks.be'; // reply/from email address
$phpwcms['SMTP_FROM_NAME'] = 'phpwcms webmaster'; // reply/from name
$phpwcms['SMTP_HOST'] = 'localhost'; // SMTP server (host/IP)
$phpwcms['SMTP_PORT'] = 25; // SMTP-Server port (default 25)
$phpwcms['SMTP_MAILER'] = 'smtp'; // default phpMailer: smtp, mail (default), sendmail
$phpwcms['SMTP_AUTH'] = 1; // sets SMTP_AUTH to ON/OFF
$phpwcms['SMTP_USER'] = 'smtp@piezoworks.be'; // default SMTP login (user) name
$phpwcms['SMTP_PASS'] = 'mypass'; // default SMTP password
That worked (perelandra gave the hint)
Hope to know one day why it didn't work, anyway now I know for the future:
Use smtp with auth ON, so all is fine,
hope someone can benefit from this too.
And... many thx Ben/Yves for support
Cheers

Thx, Kosse!
Your hint did help to solve my problem with formulars as well!
BTW: It also works with "sendmail"

I got the same trouble and came here for help. Trying SMTP solution I find out that for me, i just had to change this line
Code: Select all
$phpwcms["default_lang"] = "en"; //default language
to french, and it works fine. But i don't know if your default language is french "fr" as mine...
