Hi,
I've managed to install oxwall. It looks great.
But, trying to invite friends is failing. It seems that no emails are sent out.
On the application side, everything looks fine. No error. But no email is received (tried yahoo and gmail addresses).
Any idea to debug it?
Thanks

On my server I've uploaded a php file with the following:
<?php
$to = "salmoliv@gmail.com";
$subject = "Hi!";
$body = "Hi,\n\nHow are you?";
if (mail($to, $subject, $body)) {
echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");
} else {
echo("<p>Message delivery failed...</p>");
}
?>
And mail are sent. So it's not specific to my server ...

Olivier,
You need to make sure that the cron job is properly configured. Here's the manual: https://lite.skadate.com/hello/docs/install/cron. Also check you notifications setting in your preferences: www.yourdomain.com/email-notifications

Hi Ross,
Thanks for the response.
The cron job wasn't running. None of the commands described in the manual worked. I had to use the following with my hosting company:
php -f /var/www/vhosts/FilerWeb03/<site>/httpdocs/oxwall/ow_cron/run.php
