Hi all,
I installed Mediawiki in a LAN environment. I specified the internal Microsoft smtp server in the "php.ini" to send out emails. However, the mails were not sent out although the local smtp server is listening on port 25. I do not really know what the problem is and would appreciate any help.
The computer is directly connected to a router and has an internal IP (192.168.x.x). The Wiki is running on Apache 2 on port 8080. The smtp server is listening on port 25 (IIS 5).
Thanks for your help.
Mei
You haven't given many details here to help out in troubleshooting. Are there any errors showing in the Apache log? Does the SMTP log even show a connection attempt when a mail is (supposed to be) sent?
I do have a short write-up available at http://www.datahead.org/wiki/index.php/Wiki_Setup_Information#Email_Settings that documents how I was able to get MediaWiki 1.5.x and 1.6.x to send email on a Windows-based server. Perhaps something there can help you.

Hi Matt,
Since I was also having SMTP problems, I followed your link.
Found out that I had to modify the ini_set line to include the PEAR directory.
My Wiki can finally send emails!
Thanks a lot for the tip!

Hi,
I have installed Mediawiki 1.6.7 and I can't find the ini_set line. There is only one ini_set line which is commented to set the "memory_limit". I copied the line
ini_set( "include_path", ".:$IP:$IP/includes:$IP/languages:/usr/local/share/pear" );
in there and changed it to my PEAR directory F:\pear. However, now I get errors that wiki cannot include other things:
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/SkinTemplate.php' (include_path='.:F:\wamp\www\mediawiki:F:\wamp\www\mediawiki/includes:F:\wamp\www\mediawiki/languages:/php/pear') in F:\wamp\www\mediawiki\skins\MonoBook.deps.php on line 8
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

Windows uses a different separator between each item in the list of paths to search. If I remember correctly, you'll have to change each of the : characters to ; and the path set should work properly.
