| Dear Seth,
I'm having trouble getting attachments to work.
1. The script works fine when I don't require an attachment.
2. When I make the following changes:
#----- F I L E A T T A C H M E N T -----#
## $send_attachement specifys if you want to send an attachment with the auto response. ##
## Set $send_attachement = "1"; to send attachment with autoresponse ##
## Set $send_attachement = "2"; to not send attachment with autoresponse ##
$send_attachement = "1";
## IF USING A FILE ATTACHMENT YOU MUST CONFIGURE THE BELOW THREE VARIABLES ##
$attachment_nm = "mym.pdf"; ## file name of attachement ##
$att_path = "http://www.mydomain.co.uk/brochures/courses/mym.pdf"; ## Path to file attachement##
$att_format = ".pdf"; ## File attachement extension, or file type (basicaly .exstension ) ##
I get an "Internal Server Error".
I'm using Version 2.
I've tried $att_format = "pdf"; instead of $att_format = ".pdf";
I've tried $att_path = "http://www.mydomain.co.uk/brochures/courses/"; instead of $att_path = "http://www.mydomain.co.uk/brochures/courses/mym.pdf";
Any suggestions?
Many thanks in anticipation.
Best wishes

| Dear Seth,
Many thanks - I didn't realise it had to be the absolute path. The PDF attachment is now being sent with the html.mes file but it is being corrupted so cannot be opened in Adobe Reader. I've tried $att_format = "pdf"; and $att_format = ".pdf"; but the file is corrupted which ever I use.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks again for your help.
Best wishes

| Dear Seth,
Have just read "pdf corruption" but I don't think it has helped. The PDF file is on my server and opens OK in my browser. Would it help if I upgrade to Version 2.1.2? I have downloaded it. Can I upgrade by simply uploading bizmail.cgi or will I need to upload other files as well?
Many thanks
Ian | |

| You will need to re-upload all the scripts in version 2.1.2. You will want to anyway because there are new scripts and bug fixes on the latest zip.

| Ok firstly, the $att_path, needs to be the abosolute server path to the attachment. The URL path will not work.
so for instance it should look something like:
$att_path = "/home/user/web/brochures/courses/";
It should also not contain the file name.
