Module: Group Auto-Email

Done. All it shows is :

However, I tailed the apache2 error log and saw this:

Please make sure the Event Logging module has its minimum log level set to "Debug" and that you are not filtering out the "Debug" level events.

The apache message tells us there is something wrong with the headers, which should show up as a debug level event. The only site-specific info put in the headers is the "System Emails From Name" and "System Emails From Address" set in the Admin Section -> General Settings page near the bottom. Could you check that those two fields do not have anything irregular in them?

Minimum log level is set to debug and nothing is filtered. System Emails From Name and Address appear ok. I looked at the group_autoemail.php file and found several instants of \n\n in the code. I changed them to \r\n and now there are no errors produced in the apache error log but mail is still not sent.

Argh, I think I gave you a bit of bad code. Please re-edit the group_autoemail.php file changing:

Language: PHP
foreach($mail_users as $user_id => $user_info) {
            if ($debug_i == 1) {
                if (function_exists(';event_logging_writelog';)) {
                    $testuser = implode(",",$user_info);
                    event_logging_writelog(array(
                        "message"   => "First user:\n\n".$user_id." = ".$testuser
                    ));
                }
            }
            if ((empty($user_info["phorum_mod_group_autoemail_user_unsubscribe_setting"]) || (!empty($user_info["phorum_mod_group_autoemail_user_unsubscribe_setting"]) && $user_info["phorum_mod_group_autoemail_user_unsubscribe_setting"] != "on") || $PHORUM["phorum_mod_group_autoemail"]["allow_user_unsubscribe"] != 1)

to:

Language: PHP
foreach($mail_users as $user_id => $user_info) {
            if ($debug_i == 1) {
                if (function_exists(';event_logging_writelog';)) {
                    $testuser = implode(",",$user_info);
                    event_logging_writelog(array(
                        "message"   => "First user:\n\n".$user_id." = ".$testuser
                    ));
                }
            }
            if ((!empty($user_info["phorum_mod_group_autoemail_user_unsubscribe_setting"]) && $user_info["phorum_mod_group_autoemail_user_unsubscribe_setting"] == "on") || $PHORUM["phorum_mod_group_autoemail"]["allow_user_unsubscribe"] != 1)

Well, now I get:

[Wed Jan 21 13:03:20 2009] [error] [client 67.98.187.69] File does not exist: /srv/www/htdocs/aaceonline/advocacy/images, referer: [www.aace.com]

and nothing in Phorum event logging. Also, the post gets posted to Phorum but blank page is returned after posting rather than returned to forum.

Ashley

It sounds like this file may now have some errors in it. Could you upload your edited group_autoemail.php file and I will review it for any possible damage. Thanks.

Yep, it was a missing paranthesis. Please re-upload this fixed group_autoemail.php.
