Form wont send email

betovarg 30 Dec, 2009
Hi,

Im building a simple contact form which should just send an email with the data contained in the form.
In the debug, i can see the image verification is ok, validation is ok, but still I dont get the email in my inbox.

   1. Form passed first SPAM check OK
   2. Form passed the submissions limit (if enabled) OK
   3. Form passed the Image verification (if enabled) OK
   4. Form passed the server side validation (if enabled) OK
   5. $_POST Array: Array ( [text_0] => alberto [text_1] => 2345 [text_2] => [text_3] => [text_5] => arv@arvcr.com [text_6] => adsdfdsfg [chrono_verification] => KgpPH [button_7] => Enviar [96938b594f09701f2e5c96bb7fdc0a89] => 1 [1cf1] => d8837e4e244c4af6e19b73f7203b7d1c [chronoformname] => Contacto )
   6. $_FILES Array: Array ( )
   7. Form passed the plugins step (if enabled) OK
   8. Debug End


"Email the results" is set to yes, the setup emails is in green and pointing to my email.
(joomla 1.5 was installed through simplescripts)

Any thought on what may be causing this?
Thanx

Hi betovarg,

If you see 'enabled=1, disabled=0' in the Emails column of the Forms Manager then my best guess is that you don't have an email server enabled on your site.

Hi GreyHead!

Thanx for the quick reply.

This is rather odd. The site is a server in which I always tryout the joomla installs.
I actually see "enabled 1 disabled 0", I'll check with the server guys and let you know if i have another issue.

Thnx again.

I'm having the same issue.
Enabled = 2
Disabled = 0

My demo form does send the email to me, however the confirmation pages does state:

"Hey admin, you need to configure the emaisl addresses in the admin area for the real form to be sent to YOU"

However the form I created does NOT send emails to me. The debug file does not indicate that any emails are sent. Could the problem have anything to do with the "onsubmit" settings?

Thanks and happy new year!

Hi Bob, the form is attached. [subsequently deleted] Note also that there are two "date" fields which are not generating the miniature calendar. Not sure what the cause might be.

Thanks!

Hi wdemilly,

There is a problem with the Confirmation Page plugin which seems to block emails. I'm not sure why this happens and I don't think anyone has yet posted a fix.

The date pickers are working for me - the most likely problem is a conflict with something else on the page. Try adding &tmpl=component to the form url to see the form without the template. If the date pickers then work it is a conflict with the template code.

Hi Bob!

I have checked my server and everything is working ok. In fact, i can send emails through the Contacts component in Joomla. I have turned everything upside down and the forms arent working yet. I have this joomla install in a test server, so i haven't validated the install (I own the licence), can that be the source of the problem?

please help and thank you in advance!

Hi betovarg,

Have you disabled the Confirmation Page plugin?

Validation (or lack of) isn't the problem - it affects nothing except the strap line under the form.

It worked this time.
So the issue is related to the confirmation plugin only?
