Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

thank you. I tried again just now. It still didn't work, but I got a different error message:
"Method not allowed: The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL /index.html."
I'm trying to load up a simple newsletter registration form on my homepage. www.amyfrazierworkshops.com. Thanks!

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

Why have you set the form action to be action="http://www.amyfrazierworkshops.com/index.html" ???

It should be: action="http://www.amyfrazierworkshops.com/ABVFP/dbts_abvfp.php"

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

I wanted to add, that since I'm putting the form into my homepage, I have named it http://www.yourdomain.com/index.html, per the tutorial.

Thanks,
Amy

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

sorry, didn't see that you'd replied. I guess I got the info backward, misunderstood that note in the tutorial I just reference. I will make the change and let you know. Thank you!

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

Ok, I changed the action, and now I'm back to the illegal form submission error page. Can't figure out where I'm going wrong with this...

Thanks,

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

Well, I backed all the way out, deleted the files from my computer and FTP, and re-installed the ABVFP.v2. Now the message I get when I go to
http://www.amyfrazierworkshops.com/A...ts_install.php is

"You don't have permission to access /ABVFP/dbts_install.php on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request." I checked several of the file permissions, and they were at 644.

I was able to get further last time before I hit a logjam. Any ideas where I'm going wrong?



Thanks,
Amy

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

Hello again.

I'm still having the same problem. Is there something I'm not doing correctly when putting a form on my index page, I wonder? In the ABVFP cp I have the Form URL as http://www.amyfrazierworkshops.com/index.html per the instructions in the question field.

When you say " This happens when the form URL is different from what is declared in the ABVFP control panel as form URL," I'm a little confused, because the form URL is the same as my index page URL...and that's what I have listed in the Control panel.

I found the problem with the permission, btw. But I'm now officially back to where I started with "Illegal Form Submission." and a little bleary-eyed. Thank you for helping!

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

In your menus, the home page is typed as http://amyfrazierworkshops.com/index.html

without www. Even a www. missing is interpreted bt the script as a wrong referer and it gives you this error pessage.

Type, as form URL in the script, http://www.amyfrazierworkshops.com/

and make sure that in your menus the index page is provided the same way

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

It appears that all is well. Thank you very much!

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

I'm having a bit of a problem.

Everything appears to work great EXCEPT that the e-mail that comes to me from the form has a blank To: field. I set it up in ABVFP admin area but it's not there on my e-mail and thus I get a "A message that you sent contained no recipient addresses, and therefore no
delivery could be attempted." in my mail client that the e-mail is supposed to go to.

This is the header info in the error e-mail

To:
Subject: Custom Order Submission
X-PHP-Script: www.amonaug.com/ABVFP/dbts_abvfp.php for 71.86.192.31
From: aldarontav********.com
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
boundary="==Multipart_Boundary_xe660289746d3e93e78 de4cc91aefefd9x"
Message-Id: <E1Jc6Bn-0007zg-7a@voda23.voda23.com>
Date: Wed, 19 Mar 2008 16:51:15 -0500

On the auto-responder e-mail that goes to the submitter everything is great, works perfect.

Opening up dbts_abvfp.php in wordpad I have this
// now we'll build the message headers
$ndmailhead = "From: $ndemail\r\n" .
"MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n" .
"Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\r\n" .
" boundary=\"{$mime_boundary}\"";

Shouldn't there be a "To: " line in there or is that someplace else in the script that I missed?

I'm not very experience in scripts but can make out some things sometimes.

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

No, this is not correct. The scripts follows a loop to send to all email addresses. so the to: is hardcoded in the loop.

Check your email address in the script. Make sure that there are no whitespaces or " , " where there should not be. If you wish contact me with your ABVFP login details and the form URL so i can have a look.

Re: Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor

Just an update.

Thanks for the help Navaldesign (AKA George)

Apparently my problem was in Outlook Express 6 account setup of the emails. When I went into the webmail provided in the control panel (Horde) the emails were fine. So instead of trying to figure out how to setup Outlooks correctly I'll save myself the headache and use the webmail.

Thanks again
