World of *Nix

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Warning

Message: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to ssl://smtpdomain.com:444 (Unable to find the socket transport “ssl” – did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?)

Filename: plugins/class.smtp.php

Line Number: 121

Mailer Error: SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host.

If i dont use “$mail->SMTPSecure = “ssl”;” (in core php test) it works fine.

Any Help?

hi, did you configured it correctly ?
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // enable SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPSecure = “ssl”; // sets the prefix to the servier
$mail->Host = “smtp.gmail.com”; // sets GMAIL as the SMTP server
$mail->Port = 465; // set the SMTP port

$mail->Username = “username@somedomain.com”; // GMAIL username
$mail->Password = “xxxxxx”; “

thank u for replying vaia .
