On other hosting service I have had major problems using the sendmail function (i.e. mail()) from php. Basically the script times out waiting for sednmail to return from the function call.
Anyone else had this problem and is there a solution?
Notice from m^e:
Make your topic titles as descriptive as possible. Topic title to message body relevance is counted as a big factor on this board, and is the key to elicitation of good replies from other members.
Hai, The problem you are facing is not in PHP, but in your hosting provider. One reason is that you have no permission to use sendmail, second is that IP address si not in the list of allowed domains for the receiver.
Check out with your host and check your script with other hostings. Then you will know what the real probelm is?
My guess is that sendmail has been disabled but somehow mail() is allowed in PHP. So php tries to call sendmail but there's no reply (hence the timeout).
If this is the case your host could disable mail() in PHP aswell.
Other option is that sendmail isn't just working, because of heavy spamming or something.
I haven't really read much about sessions, i usually study PHP by viewing other's codes and
learning from it. Here's what keeps on popping out when I open the page. CODE Warning:

We have to make something in PHP for school, so I decided to make a complete photoalbum. One of the
things that it can is creating and storing thumbnails, but here is where the problems start. The
thumbnails have to be stored in a subfolder called 'thumbnails', if this folder doesn't
exist, my script creates this folder and everything works like it is supposed to be. But it
doesn't do that the way I want. The folder is made with: CODE mkdir($thumbnail_folder,
0777); but when I check it via FTP, it is set to 755. Even worse is that I can't acce....
This is quite a bit of problem I am facing, and I cannot point exactly where I am going wrong. I
have been lurking around here at the Asta Host forums with regard to login and user authentication
scripts and I have got as far as this: - Starting a session - Registering a session variable -
Using the variable to check if the user is authenticated or not. - Authenticating the user through
MySQL database - Logging of the user, by setting the session variable to un-authenticated I have
been able to achive the following things too that I think is not related to this proble....
For the new version of my website I'm trying to make a very simple newssytem based on php. Each

I am not the most regular contributer to PHP Builder but every now and then there is just a question
from a newbie or someone that can not be fixed. I do not know if it is that they do not know how to
ask the question but this one has been going on too long. It seemed from the question that they
asked that they wanted to insert some data froma text file into the MySQL database. So after looking
at their query (the original question) QUOTE Here's part of my code: Code: $result =
