Setup Site Incorrectly

[Phil_b]

Hi all. I have been browsing the forums looking for a solution for sometime now and in the end im making this topic. Any suggested feedback welcome.

I added a new domain to my site so now on the box I have 2 site's running. As soon as this happened some time ago outgoing email stopped working. That is problem 1, outgoing email.

The second problem is as soon as I go into DA and edit my PHP.ini (say to change max_connections) the new value is shown in DA but does not filter through to my site's which still show the old value even after reboot.


Im unsure what I have done wrong right now, perhaps I set up the IP's incorrectly? Any help on this really is appreciated as I have spent so much time on these issues already.

What are the errors in your log file? (/var/log/exim/mainlog and /var/log/exim/rejectlog)

The second problem is as soon as I go into DA and edit my PHP.ini (say to change max_connections) the new value is shown in DA but does not filter through to my site's which still show the old value even after reboot.

DA (as far as I know) doesn't have an option to edit the php.ini. If a setting in your php.ini isn't showing up on a page with php_info(), then I would make sure that the php.ini has the correct permmisions and that the location is correct for that version of php.

Tom, thanks for the reply.

In the main log is is mainly email messages saying things like:

2006-11-08 17:48:51 1GhrXd-00083d-Eu <= [email protected] U=apache P=local S=5850 T="Forum Subscription New Topic Notification ( BuzzJack )" from <[email protected]> for [email protected]

2006-11-08 17:48:53 1GhrXd-00083d-Eu Completed

And in my reject log things like:

Insure what to do with this. In the 'File Editor' section of DA I can edit my PHP.ini.

Take a look here you have a few things you need to clear up with DNS before hotmail or many other email providers will work with your server.

Tells me that you need to provide authentication to be able to send email. If you weren't providing authentication before, then you problably had popb4smtp working and had done a pop3 request before trying to send email.
