Language string failed to load: recipients_failed

[zfred09]

I get this error when sending email, I'm using phpmailer, windows os, and my smtp server is remote.  How do I fix this error?

[code]
                                ini_set("include_path", ".:/path/to/phpmailer/dir");
ini_set("include_path", ".:/path/to/smtp/dir");
ini_set("include_path", ".:/path/to/phpmailer.lang-en/dir");
                                $mail = new PHPMailer();

$mail->IsSMTP();                                      // set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = "smtp.mydomain.com";  // specify main and backup server
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;    // turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = "username";  // SMTP username
$mail->Password = "pass"; // SMTP password

$mail->From = "support@mydomain.com";
$mail->AddAddress("blah@gmail.com");

$mail->Subject = "Blah";
$mail->Body = " Email text"; [/code]

[printf]

What are all the ini_set(s) for, each one will overwrite the other. If you need to include all those paths, then put them all to together and call ini_set() (1) time!

[code]ini_set ( 'include_path', '.;/path/to/phpmailer/dir;/path/to/smtp/dir;/path/to/phpmailer.lang-en/dir');[/code]

That should fix the phpmailer, not being able to find the [b]language[/b] directory!

That gave me the error message [color=red]Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: phpmailer in /blah.php on line 22[/color]

[printf]

Your on Windows, so be sure to use full paths...

IE:

[code]ini_set ( 'include_path', '.;C:/phpmailer-1.73/phpmailer/');[/code]


Or tell me where you have it installed and show the [b]exact code[/b] your using to create the object.

I have it extracted onto my desktop and then I uploaded the class.phpmailer.php and class.smtp.php and the language file to my remote server with ftp.  Heres the object code, [code]class PHPMailer

Ok I just took out the ini_set function and put this in [code]require("class.phpmailer.php");
require("class.smtp.php");
require("phpmailer.lang-en.php");[/code] About 75% of the time the email sends but ever so often I get the [color=red]Language string failed to load: recipients_failed[/color] error message.

Bump, does anyone know how to fix this?
