Problem with Registration Form

petergoeswest 05 Jul, 2012
Hi,
I am having some trouble with the Chronoforms Joomla User Registration form. When I try to submit a form I get
Could not instantiate mail function.
An error was encountered while sending the registration email. A message has been sent to the administrator of this site.

I am pretty sure that I followed the tutorial correctly. Also after trying to submit if I try to submit the form again using same login & email details it says that they are already in use, When I check in Joomla Admin / User Manager there no mention of the account i tried to submit, I also searched the database for relevant username & email again can find no trace, error message says a message has been sent to site admin, but again I can find no trace of that. I am able to use the same user / email if I try to use the default Joomla Registration Form.

I am using Joomla 2.5.4 and Chronoforms V4.0 RC3.21
Joomla User Registration:
joomla override: yes
user activation: yes
send activation: yes
random password: no
auto login: no
display status: yes

USER MANAGER:
allow user registration: yes
new user group: registered
new user account activation: self

here's the code I am using [attachment=0]Rego Form.txt[/attachment]

Thx in advance Pete.

Hi petergoeswest,

If you use the Joomla! variables JURI::base() for the URL and JPATH_SITE for paths - this can avoid many problems with having to hunt down and replace urls and folder paths.

There are other variants on these - check the Joomla! docs for more details.
