Cant upload any photos

[aluisi]

well actuly i guess the mail isnt working. i can send mail through the mail.php but not from the photopost site

[aluisi]

okay my php mail is set up. I registered in photopost and used my gmail address as my email address during registration This is the error I am getting in photopost

PHP Warning: mail(): SMTP server response: 550 not local host gmail.com, not a gateway in C:\Program Files\Ensim\WEBppliance\SiteData\Domains\trevorjames.biz\ROOT\Inetpub\wwwroot\gallery\register.php on line 281

I can send php mail with the test file at trevorjames.biz/mail.php

You need to define in your php setup the smtp mail paramters

You need to set permissions on the uploads and data directories under the photopost directory to READ WRITE EXECUTE 777 permissions. There is no way around this. You need to ask your host to do this.

i just set the files wide open and it still wount work. Dang it. About the mail where do I config the smtp paramiters?

[Chuck S]

You configure the mail thing in your php.ini file on the server. You enter the correct SMTP settings. I can not tell you what they are.

http://www.photopost.com/installphp.html

That is the install instructions with permissions. Try using gd2 as the image processor and see what you get.

Okay i switched to GD2 and I got a new error. One thing I notice after I installed the new version of php the php.ini file has all the old settings for the previous version of php.

GD2 Error

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagecreatefromjpeg() in C:\Program Files\Ensim\WEBppliance\SiteData\Domains\trevorjames.biz\ROOT\Inetpub\wwwroot\gallery\image-inc.php on line 84

You need to make sure the gd2 dll is in the extentions directory for php on your server and then fill in the php.ini and specify the extentions directory and uncomment the gd2 dll and that should enable gd2

[aluisi]

should i replace all the old php.ini with the new install on in my windows directory? Also should the path to the extentions folder have / insted of \ in the path name?

[Chuck S]

You can use windows paths in the php.ini file you just need to place the true path to the folder that has the extentions in it like maybe

C:\PHP\extentions

The php.ini you edit is the one that is being used by PHP
