Hello guys, ich have installed Mediawiki-1.6.5. Since some time email notification does not work any more on user registration, password change or page watch. How can I debug Mediawiki to see whats wrong?
First, upgrade to 1.6.9, which contains important security upgrades.
Second, check that you haven't accidentally disabled the options in LocalSettings.php and that the preferences are set. Note that you won't be emailed when a user registers unless using the NewUserNotif extension, and that a newly registered user won't be emailed unless email address authentication is switched on. No-one is emailed on password changes, so perhaps you mean lost passwords? No-one is emailed on page watches, so perhaps you mean "when a watched page is changed"?
I'd start checking the various error logs - PHP, mail transfer agent, etc. to track down the problem.
