Troubles with KT_Email.class.php

[kopchinskiy]

Hi All,

I'm new here and love this place already. IMHO MXKollection is (was) the best tool ever created for a small website developer like me.

I can't find solution for the following problem:

User registration form is trying to send confirmation email but fails with a stack of messages (see below).

Server: localhost
PHP: 5.4.7
error_reporting = E_ALL ^ E_STRICT

problem start in line 225 of KT_Email.class.php:
$mail_object = &Mail::factory('smtp', $arrSMTPParameters);

Well, I'm not very good with php so I can't fix this and I also wasn't able to find the was to get rid of this warning.

Is there any solution&idea for this?

Many thanks for any help!

Hi Alexey,
Did you download the patched files.
Sure the fix is included in there.

Or post the lines of code here so we can take a look.

Hi Fred,

Sure I did and it solved many problems except this one. I guess it is something to do with PEAR but I'm not quite sure.

[Fred]

Post this line I want to check something.

PEAR.php on line 557

[kopchinskiy]

These are the lines from 549 to 562 of PEAR.php:

Code: Select all

if ($error_class !== null) {
            $ec = $error_class;
        } elseif (isset($this) && isset($this->_error_class)) {
            $ec = $this->_error_class;
        } else {
            $ec = 'PEAR_Error';
        }
        if ($skipmsg) {
            $a = &new $ec($code, $mode, $options, $userinfo);
            return $a;
        } else {
            $a = &new $ec($message, $code, $mode, $options, $userinfo);
            return $a;
        }

Do you see anything special here?

[Fred]

yes there are mistakes in the code.

Download this zip file here. It is my current files.

Note:
My settings is not set to error_reporting = E_ALL ^ E_STRICT so there might be more warnings.
Please let me know.

Hi Fred,

Thanks for the code! It didn't help though: email is still not send. I set php.ini to E_ALL so here is the error I'm getting right now:

Code: Select all

My php is 5.4.7 and PEAR seems to be enabled (as I see from phpinfo).
Well, this is not a disaster for me so if this takes you really much effort I don't mind if you leave it as it is. On my destination hosting (Lunarpages) with php 5.3.15 everything works just fine. phpinfo there doesn't show any PEAR. I guess they have some alternative installed on their servers (Phar?).

Many thanks for your time!

No we need to fix it.
Will take a look at the issue.

[Fred]

Change this line
C:\xampp\htdocs\includes\common\lib\email\KT_Email.class.php on line 223

from

Code: Select all

$mail_object = &Mail::factory('smtp', $arrSMTPParameters);

to

Code: Select all

$mail_object = Mail::factory('smtp', $arrSMTPParameters);

The isError() instances is a pear issue that I will look into.
Changing the display_errors value in the php.ini to "Off" suppressed these errors.
