PHP Mailer not working

[Naim]

Hi team,

Can someone help with the code below? I am not getting to the OTP page. The email account is in godaddy cpanel. The app is hosted in godaddy also.

<?php

session_start();

include "connection.php";

use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\SMTP;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;

//Load Composer's autoloader
require 'vendor/autoload.php';


function send_verification($fname, $lname, $email, $token){

    $mail = new PHPMailer(true);

        $mail->isSMTP();
        $mail->SMTPAuth  = false;
        $mail->Port = 25;
        $mail->Host = "localhost";
        $mail->Username = "username"; //SMTP username
        $mail->Password = "pass";
        
        $mail->IsSendMail(); 
        
        $mail->From = "username";
        $mail->FromName = "Name";
        
        $mail->addAddress($email);
        
        
        $mail->Subject = " OTP Verification!";
        $mail->WordWrap = 80;
        
        $email_template = "
            <h5>Here's Your Security Code:</h5>
            <h4 style='color: green;'>$token</h4><br/>

            <h5> 
            Hello $fname $lname <br/><br/>

            We've recieved a security request from your account. Please use the code above to login to your account.<br/><br/>

            Regards,
 
            </h5>
            ";
        
          
        $mail->MsgHTML($email_template);
        $mail->isHTML(true);    
        $mail->send();
    
    if(!$mail->send()){
        echo $mail->ErrorInfo;
    }

}

if(isset($_POST['username']) && isset($_POST['password'])) {

    function validate($data) {
        $data = trim($data);
        $data = stripslashes($data);
        $data = htmlspecialchars($data);
        return $data;
    }

$username = validate($_POST['username']);
$password = validate($_POST['password']);
$otp_value = rand(1000, 9999);


if(empty($username)){
    header ("Location: index.php?error=Username is required!");
    exit();
}

else if(empty($password)) {
    header ("Location: index.php?error=Password is required!");
    exit();
}

$sql = "SELECT * FROM login_js WHERE email='$username' AND password='$password'";

$result = mysqli_query($conn, $sql);

if(mysqli_num_rows($result) === 1) {
    $row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);
    if($row['email'] === $username && $row['password'] === $password) {
        $_SESSION['id'] = $row['id'];
        $_SESSION['jsid'] = $row['jsid'];
        $_SESSION['email'] = $row['email'];
        
        $jsid = $row['jsid'];
        $fname = $row['firstmiddlenames'];
        $lname = $row['lastname'];
        $email = $row['email'];
        
        
        $sql2 = "UPDATE login_js SET loginOTP='$otp_value' WHERE email = '$username'";

        $result2 = mysqli_query($conn, $sql2);

        if($result2){
        send_verification("$fname", "$lname", "$email", "$otp_value");
        header ("Location: verification.php?email=".$email);
        exit();
    } else {
        header ("Location: index.php?error=problem updating otp");
    }
    } else {
        header ("Location: index.php?error=Incorrect Username or Password!");
        exit();
    }
}
} else {
    header ("Location: index.php?error=Cannot Find the Username and Password");
    exit();
}
?>

We get these type of questions all the time.  I'm not sure what you mean by  "I am not getting to the OTP page" or what this has to do with phpmailer. 

If emails are not going out as expected, one reason would be that this wouldn't work with godaddy, as you'd need the hostname and whatever other credentials for their mail server.  

 

$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->SMTPAuth  = false;
$mail->Port = 25;
$mail->Host = "localhost";
