First here is my info

XOOPS Version: 2.0.13.2
PHP Version: 4.3.8
MySQL Version: 12.22
Web Server Software (Apache/IIS/Other): Apache
Operating System: OpenBSD 3.6

A full description of the issue:

Ok here is my problem I have OpenBSD 3.6. My webserver is chrooted to /var/www/. I have mini_sendmail in that directory so that when I send out email to people that it is within the Chrotted area. OK when I type in

echo 'Subject: test' |mini_sendmail -v my email address

in the command line it works telling me that mini_sendmail does work. But when I sign up a new user with that same email address and tell it to mail the login stuff to that email address it say's email sent sucessfully but nothing comes to that email address. I have changed the php.ini file in /var/www/conf. I have changed it to sendmail and php() in the mail options in mail settings and they both say that the email was sent sucessfully but no email gets sent. Is there something I am missing?

Ok when I send it throught to PHP() it says this:

Could not instantiate mail()

But my php.ini is correct and I set up a user account so that it could log on for mini_sendmail. I even have the path. Also when I change it from php() to sendmail it give me no error but it doesn't give me an email.

Anyone go an answer for this?

Hi Rowejob,

I wrote a small write-up on how to get Xoops, mini_sendmail , and netPBM up and running on OpenBSD3.6 , some time in late last year.

You may want to have a look at it at this link here:

Xoops on OpenBSD3.6

Cheers!
