Ultimate Form Mail Script Error ?

[skeptismo]

Hello to everyone,

 

Sorry to bother, but I'm totally newbie to scripts etc. I tried to install a FormMail script which I found on the TCH forums, and I started with Ultimate Form Mail

 

I tried to install the UltimateFormMail script into my site.

I've done the following:

1. created a folder named "scripts" under my account

2. created a folder "ultimate_form_mail" under scripts folder

3. modify the mailit.php with my mail address to send the requests.

4. modify the html page with the following :

action="/scripts/ultimate_form_mail/mailit.php"

 

but when I tried to test the script, I got the error :

The requested URL /~qwertyc/scripts/ultimate_form_mail/mailit.php was not found on this server.

 

(Note that "qwertyc" is my account name)

 

What is wrong with that ?

 

(can I use another easy to configure script ?)

 

I forgot to tell you that in my account I have not set DNS records yet (I use it for test purposes only). Maybe that causes the problem or not ?

 

Thanks to all

Well, my first question would be "Is that file actually there?". Next would be to try http://IP in fromt of the path and see if that changes things. I dont use the script so I cant be sure. You can wait here for someone that does and see if they know or ask over on Jacks site what the problem might be, he made the program.

Your problem is likely do to the non DNS issue.

Try changing the

>/scripts/ultimate_form_mail/mailit.php

to

>scripts/ultimate_form_mail/mailit.php

Hard to see but I removed the front slash.

 

I think it has something to do with not regocnizing the root folder as DNS hasn't propagated yet.

 

Further more. I advise you to go to:

UFM script support forum

 

Your question will be answered by Coder or me (as a regular visitor of that forum and satisfied user).

You could even try the search option there and look for a similar problem.

But try my solution first

BTW. The support there is as good as the support here
