First - Congrats on the new release - looks great!
Just upgraded to play around a little and when I post new comments I get the error:
There is no mail handler configured
and I do not get a email notification. Am I missing a setting somewhere? I have the default zenphoto_sendmail plugin enabled.
Thanks -

Then go to your plugins page and do an APPLY.
Unfortunately changing line 6 of zenphoto_sendmail.php does not solve it.
line 6 of zenphoto_sendmail.php already looks like this $plugin_is_filter = 5|CLASS_PLUGIN;
Also let me know whats the url of plugin page.
Thanks,
Mallik
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,

Please elaborate in detail. Thanks for your patience and help!

Can you help me?

So now I am locked. The admin account is created but I can not login since I don't get my new password on my email.
>>>You really should know that there is an administration backend you have to login to use Zenphoto at all. There you find the tab...
solutions mentioned in this thread don't help because I can not login to admin account. I guess I need to so some changes directly in DB.
which will have same effect of "click the apply button on plugns page"
to break this dead lock.
I hope I was able to explain my problem.
Thanks again for looking into this,
Mallik
After installing you should have entered a user name and a password of your choice. With that you should be able to login. No captcha needed to create that inital account at all.
If you enter the captcha you actually reset the password. Of course if your mail handler is not configured no mail can be sent. Now you have to follow this instructions:

Well, how shall I/we know that when you don't tell all info to your issue in the first place? You talked about comments...
>>> sorry I guess I should have created a new thread for this though I did mention in beginning that I am doing fresh installation of latest release.

>>>I tried this but it did not work. If it had worked I wouldn't have come up with this issue in first place. Can you test this use case with the current release and confirm the issue.

Please let me know if I should create a new thread for this.
You will have to look into your server's error logs. If you don't know where these are aks your host the same Where did you explain anything to this? You have to access your database using a tool like phpMyAdmin and delete a table (that's not the same as a "tab"...). If you don't know how to do this again ask your host.
zenphoto_sendmail.php
Where is it located? I have the latest version of ZP.
Error posting comment:
* There is no mail handler configured
I tried disabling zenphoto_sendmail and then re-enabling it, and I still have the same error message.
As stated in the second post in this thread, I changed line 6 to read
$plugin_is_filter = 5|CLASS_PLUGIN;
Sorry forgot the version: 1.4 [6454] (Official Build)
I don't know what you mean by "running support updates". Is there some feature for automatic updates?
ZenPhoto was installed via AppsUniverse provided by the host.
The process to manually upgrade seems a bit of a pain for a minor release. I tried to check the changelog (clicked on the link on the download page) to see why I might want to upgrade, but the page is blank.
You need also to enter an email address on the main options to be able to send mails. It might be that mailing does not work on your server or the mail address is not right. Maybe also ask your host.
Current version is 1.4.0.4 and we state clearly in several places (like the forum rules) that we can't support installation helper scripts.
The upgrading is actually really easy. Thanks for the note of the changelog link on the download page. That links has a slash too much at the end (it would not have been that hard to find that category on the news section's sidebar though....)
You come across as frustrated and rude when talking to users. But I am getting frustrated and angry because you seem to feel that you are superior. You accuse me of not reading the forum rules, but you can't even be bothered to read my post properly.
I ALREADY TOLD YOU THAT I CLICKED APPLY ON THE PLUGIN PAGE. That is the second time you have told me to do something that I already clearly stated in my first post.
I'm telling you that the fix stated in the second post of this thread did not work for me.
If I am reading between the lines correctly, you are saying, "We don't care. There is a new release. Use that and don't expect any help from us in applying your own fix."
Maybe you don't say that outright because you are not trying to be rude, but it's not working. I'm beginning to regret choosing this script.
Above you tell you use 1.4 which is clearly not the current. You did not tell if you tried that yet. There is no upgrade script, but how to upgrade is explained on our site. It is really not that hard.
We don't support these helper scripts because we don't know what they do and we had often issues reported that were directly related to them doing something wrong . So we actualy don't care for these, right, and are a little tired to explain this all over again (exception might be SimpleScripts now as these guys had contacted us a while ago to improve their script - We don't know if they managed it though yet).
Of course we care for our users and want Zenphoto to work for all but servers are not all the same. It may still be that the mail handler on your server is not configured correctly itself. Did you contact your host or consult its FAQ if anything special is needed?
