I suspect the problem is in the xoopsmailer and xoopsmultimailer, or the combination of them - and possible some expectations from module-developers thats not beeing met.
I believe the error can happen on all protecols, but I've only tried the PHP mail().

Both xoopsmailer and xoopsmultimailer have the phpmailer (which contains class.phpmailer.php and class.smtp.php) as underlaying layer.
Phpmailer is a seperate project (http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/), used by many other open source projects, and it's been stable (or at least unchanged) at version 1.73 for quiet some time. I'm quiet sure it's not where the problem lies.

The reason I've made changes to the class.phpmailer.php is only that it's the final destination for the message, headers etc. before it leaves the control of xoops.
The output shows errors, but not where those errors are comming from.


Peekay, you could try to go to the admin section, and in the system-popup, select to send mail to your users.
I'm quiet sure it will fail when you send out the message.
Best regards,

The problem still isn't resolved.

And yes, the XOOPS notification works (kind of), with some providers and not with others.

When I reported the bug to SF, I also uploaded a version of the class.phpmailer.php which will not send out your mails, but rather dump the mail() calling arguments onto the screen.
With this, I found that some parts of the XOOPS system does send mails with valid headers and other parts does not. Some doesn't even include the To: field - which is pretty important, IMHO.
And the same goes with modules. Some modules send out correct headers, others does not.

Glad to hear it worked out for you.

Did you check if it renders correctly in both IE 5, 6 and Firefox?

As you probably allready know, IE implemented the box-model in a different way to the rest of the world, so you may run into trouble with this implementation - especially on IE 5.

Strange phyton (!!!) error after upgrade to 2.0.15

I've just upgraded from 2.0.14 to 2.0.15, by copying all changed files to the server and then upgrading the system module.
After the upgrade I get a very strange error during login:

Quote:

Thank you for logging in, Admin.
If the page does not automatically reload, please click here


The site appears to work flawless - but that error really annoyes me. It's only shown during login.

I've tried to activate the debugmode in xoops, but it reports nothing.

Could it be due to some XOOPS error, or should I just immediately complain to my web provider?

Here's some quick code, written in notepad and only testet in IE, that makes that vertical bar you want.
I don't have access to an installed XOOPS to try to integrate it, but I'm sure you can do that yourself.

Here we go:

<html>
<head>
<style>
.test {
 background:#eee;
 padding: 5px 15px 5px 5px;
 margin: 0px 0px 5px 0px; 
 height:1;

 border-color:#fff;
 border-right-color:#000;
 
 border-width:0px;
 border-right-width:4px;
 border-style:solid;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
</body>
<a href="test" class="test">test</a>
<br>
<a href="test" class="test">test</a>
<br>
<a href="test" class="test">test</a>

</html>


Happy coding...

Re: How to change the favicon in Xoops? (argh...)

Be aware that IE is very tricky when it comes to favicons.
Many times it will only show the favicon after you have added the site to your favorites. Sometimes it's enough to just clean the cache - but thats only 10% of the times.
Firefox is much better to update the favicon - although it also sometimes fails (and you need to clear the cache).

Good luck.

I did some further debugging, and found that there appears to be more then one mail entry-point, and they all produces different (and sometimes duplicated or missing) headers.
Different modules and even different parts of the core send out more or less defective emails.
The entire xoopsmailer and xoopsmultimailer code should be scrutinised and fixed.

I've added more details to the bug I've opened at SourceForge:

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1550834&group_id=41586&atid=430840

I hope we can have this problem fixed as soon as possible.

Re: How Do I Make A Xoops Website On A Subdomain Of A Domain Already Using Xoops?

Daiyaan,

It's very simple to have multriple XOOPS systems installed on the same domain using either subdomains or just seperate directories of the root domain.

All you have to do is to upload XOOPS into new directories on your server, and then when you are installing the new XOOPS systems, make sure to change the database prefix, so the various xoops-systems does not use the same tables in the database. (Unless you have dedicated databases for each of your sub-domains)

A typical setup would look like this:

1.st XOOPS installation at root/
2.nd XOOPS installation at root/xoops2_name/
3.rd XOOPS installation at root/xoops3_name/
4.th XOOPS installation at root/xoops4_name/

This will give you any number of individual XOOPS instalations, each to be configures as you wish and no problems with interaction between the installations. This also means that you can have several different versions of XOOPS like this - you don't have to worry about upgrading them all at the same time.

Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Daigoro
