Tell a friend sendmail error 64
March 05, 2009, 03:25:23 pm
Hi I'm getting this error when I try to use the tell a friend functionality
Code: [Select]

status

    A error occurred when CiviCRM attempted to send an email (via Sendmail). If you received this error after submitted on online contribution or event registration - the transaction was completed, but we were unable to send the email receipt.

    This is probably related to a problem in your Outbound Email Settings (Administer CiviCRM » Global Settings » Outbound Email). Possible causes are:

        * Your Sendmail path is incorrect.
        * Your Sendmail argument is incorrect.

    The mail library returned the following error message: sendmail returned error code 64


I can send emails from the backend without problem and the mail gets delivered despite the error message.
What can be wrong?

/Nils

this is a bit wierd. a google search on that error message basically says bad arguments passed

can u check your mail log and see if it gives you any more information.

finally u can add debug statements here: CRM/Utils/Mail.php, function send( )

and see if u can get any more details as to why its failing in the frontend etc

please report bck your findings
