No email when adding new comments? - lupker - 2007-02-16
Hi all,
I was wondering, will an email be send to the emailadres in the zp-config address when someone adds a new comment to a photo?
If so, it does not seem to work for me.
If not: maybe a nice little addition to the next version?
Thanks,
Gr,
Mark

this works for me without doing anything special so maybe check your bulk/spam folder.

Comment notification does not work on IIS windows servers.. Not sure if that is what you are using or not but that is a possibility.

Hi there
I'm working on a project where we're using IIS. I would normally work on Apache, and the above post about comment notification not being possible on IIS is a bit worrying. Is this still the case - and if so, is there a workaround?
Are there any other functions that are known to not work on IIS?
Thanks
Alastair

It still does not work on IIS. Comments and Modrewrite do not work with Zenphoto on IIS. modrewrite for the obvious reason that it is an apache module.
Otherwise I run many many galleries on IIS and that is the only thing that do not work.

I filed a bug on the trac system. Mail sending is out of order when the server is in safe_mode status...

I provide a quick fix in that particular case.

Safe Mode is not recommended for use with zenphoto, thus it may not be prudent to consider it a "bug" in the zenphoto code, as Safe Mode is not realistic for proper PHP server operation. This is a snippet from a post that the developer, Tristan, mentioned a while back (and I quote):
- Contact your host and tell them you want Safe Mode disabled, and point them to the following site: http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.safe-mode.php
- PHP with Safe Mode on is basically debilitated, so I wouldn't pay for it if I had a choice. It is of course up to you though.
But I'll leave that up to Tristan to ultimately decide, but I gather from his previous posts that he is not entirely happy about safe_mode on the webserver where zenphoto is installed.

Hello,
I won't reply to you on the safe_mode goals and constraints... I don't think it's the good place to talk about that. Nevertheless, don't forget some people can not do anything else that working with safe_mode...
With only a minor change, mails with safe_mode can be generated. It's easy to do, does not add lot of complexity and provide the wanted feature. That's all that I want :-)
