bondct Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 (edited) Hi... can someone type in an example of what the command line would be for Plans to send out email reminders... thanks... currently i am using /home/myuserid/public_html/calendar/email_reminders.cgi Edited October 7, 2005 by CharlieT Quote
TweezerMan Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 I'd suggest using the following: >/home/myuserid/public_html/calendar/email_reminders.cgi > /dev/null Quote
bondct Posted October 7, 2005 Author Posted October 7, 2005 ok that worked but the reminder emails are not going out. the on demand emails will go out but not the reminder ones... additionally the emails when someone wants a new calendar are getting messed up... for example the script looks like this $options{reply_address} = "calendar@saintjoseph-hewlett.org"; $options{from_address} = "calendar@saintjoseph-hewlett.org"; $options{new_calendar_request_notify} = "webmaster@saintjoseph-hewlett.org"; but the emails are getting sent to here webmaster-hewlett.org@server108.totalchoicehosting.com also when I do receive an on-demand test email it looks like it is coming from calendar-hewlett.org@server108.totalchoicehosting.com so basically everything is winding up bounced in the main horde account (the @saintjoseph is getting dropped and server id appended)... I am still working on it... but any advice would be appreciated... thanks... Quote
bondct Posted October 8, 2005 Author Posted October 8, 2005 also... despite the fact that the plans script is not giving the correct reply address, i guess my next question is if it will send the on-demand test email out... then when the cron job runs... why does it not send out the reminder email... obviously the reminder email will have the wrong reply address... but it should still send???

bondct Posted October 8, 2005 Author Posted October 8, 2005 (edited) ok i reloaded the script and now the correct from and reply addresses are showing up... but the cron jobs are not running yet... still testing and kicking it... (server 108 will probably hate me by the end of the weekend... but I am gonna get this thing working...) here is the cron command I am running * * * * * /home/MyAccountId/public_html/calendar/email_reminders.cgi the script is outputting to MyUserId horde mail... but is not sending emails to the address I specified for the email reminder Edited October 8, 2005 by CharlieT Quote
bondct Posted October 8, 2005 Author Posted October 8, 2005 ok before I waste anymore time on Plans Calendar... I have a question... Does it send out email reminders of events on TCH? or at all? I have spent a ton of time on this script and no luck with the email reminders... I am not a scripting God (obviously)... but this is not the first script that I have setup in my life either... experience tells me its probably something stupid... but I don't see it... the cron job is running and outputing the script... but I am not getting reminders... anyone here have Plans on there site that uses the email reminder feature that can help would be appreciated... thnx...

bondct Posted October 8, 2005 Author Posted October 8, 2005 ok for anyone watching this thread... i just got my first email reminder... the best I can figure... you can not make an event and have plans send the reminder within a 24 hour period... I say this because the first reminder that I just got was the first one I made that had a greater than 24 hour span from creation date to reminder time.... all the other reminders I made were event is in 30 min, send me a reminder in 15 etc...

TCH-Bruce Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Congratulations. Sorry you didn't receive any help on this. Guess none of the users here are using the reminder function. I know my wife has Plans installed on her site but doesn't use the reminder feature. Quote
TCH-Rob Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 I know my wife has Plans installed on her site but doesn't use the reminder feature. You might want to change that before she sees it. Quote
