New Ubuntu Server and PHP

manpreet Best Answer 3 years ago

I just installed a fresh version of Ubuntu 14.04 Server on one of my computers. I installed everything to make it run like a typical web server (including PHP). My problem is, I have a contact form written in PHP that I'm running on my site and in it, I have a fail safe in case something goes wrong with submitting the form, which is what is happening. The script runs fine on any other server. But on mine, it goes to my message failed function every time I try to submit the form. I happen to think it's something wrong with the way PHP is configured on my server. Any ideas?

Here is the PHP script if anyone wants to test it:

message = trim($_POST['cf_message']);

if (empty($field_name) && empty($field_email) && empty($field_subject) && empty($field_message) && !preg_match("/([\w\-]+\@[\w\-]+\.[\w\-]+)/", $field_email))
{
    ?>
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    message))
{ 
    ?>
    
    
    
    message from...";

    $body_message .= 'A message from a user of...'."\n\n";
    $body_message .= 'From: '.$field_name."\n";
    $body_message .= 'E-mail: '.$field_email."\n";
    $body_message .= 'Subject: '.$field_subject."\n";
    $body_message .= 'Message: '.$field_message;

    $headers = "From:";

    $mail_status = mail($mail_to, $subject, $body_message, $headers);

    if ($mail_status) { 
        ?>
