Help! No email from form - 5/18/2006 7:50:14
I am using Yahoo as my host, and have FrontPage SE installed (I also did a reset later to make sure).
I created a form that is meant to collect some basic information and email them to me at my private email address.
I published the website, but when I click the Submit botton I get the following error message:
----------------------------
FrontPage Error.
User: please report details to this site's webmaster.
Webmaster: please see the server's system log for more details.
------------------------------
I do not have access to the log files on the system and hence cannot work out what is wrong. One thing I did notice it that when I access the form properties to modify anything I get a warning when I click OK: "this form cannot be configured to send results via email......". I choose Ignore.
I attached the HTML of the relevant page (replacing sensitive information with XXXXX).
Any idea what is going on here?
Many thanks in advance,
J.

Have you configured your FrontPage Extensions with a valid email address?
Is this the first form you've tried emailing on this host or have you been sucessful on other forms?

Yes, email if definately valid (I also ried with two more - yahoo and gmail ones).
This is my 1st attempt at using forms with this hosts - with no success so far...
Another thing - I created a new form from scratch - just one textbox, results saved to _private/form_results.htm (which is there), and I still got the same error message, which leads me to believe that it may not be related to the email at alll...
Any more thoughts?

Me too.
And you said you have confirmed FrontPage Xtn's are installed on the host? If so, I'd have to send this error issue Yahoo's (the host) way.

FPSE is installed properly - I just did a reinstall and the error is still there.
Yahoo support it is then...
Thanks again for taking the time.

I am now 99% convinced that there is a bug with Yahoo FrontPage Server Extensions service - something that their hosting service claims to support.
I just emailed their support team some specific questions - but I am not holding my breath...
I don't have another FPSE enabled host, but I put 2 sample pages containing forms on my site:
www.dogav.net/form_test_SaveAndEmail.htm and www.dogav.net/form_test_SaveNoEmaill.htm. One in meant to save the resutls and email them, one just the save them.
Both return the same error message as mentioned above.
