What are your vBulletin email settings? Are you using SMTP? Do you use the -f option?

pran	08-15-2005 11:24 PM

I just enabled the -f option and this is what I received when I tested it again:

Looks good, So it seems SMTP users need to enable -f. I'll add that to the instructions.

pran	08-15-2005 11:48 PM

Not quite, remember that my desired "Reply-To:" value should be vbouncer-notify@kuro.ph and not kuro@bitstop.ph (this is the webmaster e-mail).

Hmm, so we now have had two different return paths and none of them is the one you set up? I can only think of wrong settings to cause this.

Double check all your settings, make sure the plugin is there, and activated, let me know your vB email settings and you vBouncer settings, then generate a subscription notifications (a reply to a thread) and let's check the headers.

pran	08-22-2005 11:58 PM

Hmm... for some reason, it's now sending as the vBouncer e-mail. However, I'm getting this in the logs:

Code:

vbounce.inc not found, or not readable. Only processing standard reports.

Have you uploaded all the files?

pran	08-23-2005 01:39 AM

Yes, vbounce.inc is in the same directory as the cron files.

And it has read permission set?

Are you running on a Windows server?

pran	08-23-2005 02:21 AM

Yes, it has the read permission set:

Code:

-rw-r--r-- 1 www www 4567 Jul 4 17:26 vbouncer.inc

This is on a FreeBSD server.

Try this. Open vbouncer-collect.php

Find:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (file_exists('./includes/cron/vbouncer.inc') AND is_readable('./includes/cron/vbouncer.inc')) {

        $REContext = parse_ini_file('./includes/cron/vbouncer.inc', TRUE);

}

Replace with:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (file_exists(DIR .  '/includes/cron/vbouncer.inc') AND is_readable(DIR .  '/includes/cron/vbouncer.inc')) {

        $REContext = parse_ini_file(DIR .  '/includes/cron/vbouncer.inc', TRUE);

}

This means your PHP was not compiled with IMAP. You might need to recompile, or use the file spool method.

tamarian,
After upgrading to 3.5 my vbouncer went dead and my emails started goign out with the plain nobody@server.mydomain.com return addresses for some reason. I downloaded the updated files, but upon trying to install them the database was erroring out saying the table data was already there. Should I delete what is there and reinstall it?

Thanks for the quick reply. I just did that but the emails are still going out with the nobody@server.mydomain.com as the return address. Strange...

Have you activated the plugins?

Thanks very much, appears to be working great, and deprecates the need for me to run my PERL script to do it :) Lovely.

10-06-2005 02:26 PM

New problem now. I got the return email addy to change by using the -f command in the control panel but now all the emails going out are sent with the webmaster email and not the vbouncer email. I think the hook fell out that engaged the vbouncer email. How can I get it back in?

G-man

10-06-2005 02:29 PM

OMG it works!! I imported the plugin and it works.... Thanks

I spoke too soon. When Cron runs vBouncer it errors out and I get:

You need to setup your vBouncer options in vBulletin Options -> vBouncer.

Hm I did that. Maybe I forgot something. Some options I don't even understand so it wouldn't surprise me.

But there is no "collection method" option or something like that.

Collection method mehod is either IMAP or a spool file. Make sure you check the diagnostics option in the vBouncer menu, to see if there are any errors.

Ok "IMAP/POP connection"

To be honest, I'm not sure what to fill in there.

Here are a few examples, replace the domain name with your own:
For local IMAP: {localhost:143}INBOX
For local POP: {localhost:110/pop3}INBOX
For remote POP: {myisp.com:110/pop3}INBOX

{localhost:110/pop3}INBOX didnt work
do i need to change the numbers or something?
Sorry if these are dumb questions...

These values are based on your email account setup. Think of them like any new account you setup for your server. Instead of local host, put the URL of the domain used for the email, and make sure you put the email username and password in the rest of the fields.

dutchbb

This isn going to work, too bad :(

fyi

{dutchbodybuilding.com:110/pop3}INBOX didnt work password is there...

Tamarian,

I have recompiled Apache with the imap setting on for php but am still getting the error. Here is a snip from the compiles:

Quote:

configure php-4.3.11...(--prefix=/usr --with-xml --enable-bcmath --enable-calendar --enable-ftp --with-gd --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local --with-png-dir=/usr --with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6 --with-imap --with-imap-ssl --with-kerberos --enable-magic-quotes --with-mysql=/usr --enable-discard-path --with-pear --enable-sockets --enable-track-vars --enable-versioning --with-zlib).... . . . . . . . . . . . . . Done

Do I need to turn something on in php.ini?

I don't think php.ini needs any modifications. What is the output if you click on the vBouncer menu -> Diagnostics ?

I am upgrading from the 3.0 version. Since I already have it installed, I assume I don't have to go through that again?

So I went to add the plugin and it says Invalid File Specified.

Any ideas?

Edit: thats for the CPNav one.

Let me know if this works smoothly without the install script, so I can add a note to those upgrading :)
