In order to isolate your problem to a php or coding error; run the php info script on the server and see what happens. If you get the list of php information, then the php is working.

Mark - I have also tryed an upload script which was giving me the problem in the first place.

Stretchr - I will get a copy of the scripts ready so that you guys can look at them... I just need to take out some information first (eg.. servers / passwords).

I should have those rdy by tonight.

Thanks for your time

Thank you. I'm very envious of your board. Excellent display and content!

Welcome to TWF, Stretchr!

zimbabwe, have you tried using forms for something other than email?

Stretchr — Thu, 17 Jan 2002 05:24:47 +0000

I have a couple of suggestions. My first post on this board so I apologize if I'm not exactly sure of the protocol here.

You might want to check that php.ini file more closely. I don't use PHP with IIS anymore, only Apache, but if memory serves, I've seen a similar problem before.

Also, when troubleshooting it usually pays to look at the first variable. Your php.ini was missing and you replaced it with a new one. Unless your backup didn't properly pass the permissions back to the server files, that probably isn't the source of your problem. If you were using 2000 instead of NT, or if encryption was enabled, that's a different story.

There several areas in php.ini that could impact you in the way you describe. It may not be exclusively a permissions issue, rather a combination of the two.

Finally, you might consider posting or pm'ing the file and have a fresh set of eyes look at it.

I know how frustrating this can be. Wanted to give you a couple of different avenues to pursue. Sometimes that helps keep us from going in circles.

HTH.

It is a form to e-mail script. The form is in HTML and the script is in PHP.

When you say 'simple form-mail script', do you mean forms in general or a specific script 'form-mail'?

MMC is the Internet Service Manager on NT IIS 4... I think that it stands for Microsoft Management Console or something like that.

what is MMC ?

Ok, now I got passed the problem of the error 405 by going into MMC and adding the PHP path and extension info. Now when I try to post something to a simple form-mail script, it comes back saying that every field is undefined. I double-checked to make sure that I was using POST and MULTIPART/FORM-DATA in the form and that all my input fields were named properly.
