Re: Emailing Form Data with an Embperl Script
I am trying to setup the following example script, which emails form data,
but I am running into some problems.
http://perl.apache.org/embperl/Examples.html#input_htm
I have installed Net::SMTP. My embperl is working. My mod_perl is also ok. I
am running Sendmail as my mail server, which is also working. For some
reason though, when I initialized EMBPERL_MAILHOST and EMBPERL_MAILFROM in
my httpd.conf ( PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_MAILHOST the_mail_host ), it does not
take any affect, in my maillog it has the mail host as localhost and domain
as WWW-Server, which are the defaults. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Houman A.

Normaly that should be ok, but I have seen sometimes problems with "scoping"
of PerlSetEnv inside the httpd.conf. Try to put them directly before the
PerlHandler HTML::Embperl
does this change anything?

That is very possible, but I put them directly in a virtual host where I
have another existing PerlSetEnv variable in the format of the following...
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_MAILHOST ________________
PerlSetEnv EMBPERL_MAILFROM ________________
Where should they be if this is incorrect?
Thank you,

Maybe you have these directives at the wrong place in your httpd.conf ?
