Help with Joomla

[ten31studios]

I am building a site using Joomla! 1.0.14 and I seem to be having some issues.

I installed it originally on a server with PHP 4 but now we have changed servers.

I am running this on Php 5.2.4 and Mysql (not 100% sure what version)

 

the problem I am having is with, I am guessing, the phpmail function. I have been using the DF Contact component and it was working flawlessly before we changed servers. Now all I get is

Error: Mail has not been sent. Please try again later.

 

I have since tried 3 other components, including Joomlas built in one. I can't get this to work!

 

I should state that I am not very good with PHP (which is why I use Joomla and am asking for help here  )

 

Any help you could provide would be appreciated. If you need any more info please ask.

 

If this helps any this is the sql queries I see when I use debug mode...

If you didn't write the code, you need to post in third party scripts.

ok sorry, thanks

First thing to check is mail() working correctly.  Create a simple .php file and just send a mail out.

 

If that works, then you can troubleshoot the script, if it doesn't, the problem probably sits in your php.ini file.
