Eric, are you receiving activity notification emails? Emails from "Contact Us" form?
Or you are not receiving any emails at all?

What are you using for SMTP?
Can you disable it?

I have just received verification email from your site.
Let me know if this issue is still relevant.

Hey Aliia,

I couldn't figure out what was going on with the notification emails not working, so I reinstalled Oxwall from scratch. You received the verification email from the new installation :)

I'm thinking a file must have been missing or corrupted. Luckily the site was only in beta so I'm not sweating too much with rebuilding it.

Thanks!

Eric, on another note, the email I have received had an expired verification link within it ( even though I clicked on it in 5 minutes after receiving it).  May be I got it when you were doing the reinstallation and thing got screwed up for some time.

You might want to test this yourself to make sure links are working and users can confirm their emails. Let me know if you will be able to reproduce the issue.

Hello,

I dont know what to do here. I have disabled SMTP as well as left it on. Emails get to the database only when SMTP is enabled. However, the table is not being cleared. I am on a shared hosting server and have opened several cases with them below is the corn job.

*****/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php

I told my hosting company the cron was not running but they confirmed it was.

Hello,The cron was running perfectly fine, please check the logs given below to verify this but it seems cron job is not connecting to database from the the command prompt. To fix this, can you let us know the script with database settings for cron job or else please update database host as 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost and check again.============ Sep 13 22:10:09 owain crond[18749]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 22:15:06 owain crond[29107]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php)  Sep 13 22:20:06 owain crond[8825]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 22:25:06 owain crond[18759]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 22:30:06 owain crond[27388]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 22:35:06 owain crond[6556]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 22:40:07 owain crond[16940]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 22:45:07 owain crond[25526]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 22:50:06 owain crond[2821]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 22:55:06 owain crond[11105]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 23:00:06 owain crond[20585]:(xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 23:05:06 owain crond[29189]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 23:10:06 owain crond[10240]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) Sep 13 23:15:07 owain crond[21292]: (xxxxxx) CMD (/usr/local/bin/php -c /home/xxxxxx/public_html/php.ini /home/xxxxxx/public_html/ow_cron/run.php) ============

Also, when I visit /ow_cron/run.php on my site the table clears.

I do not have access to ssh.Please help

You could use a free web cron service instead of relying on your hoster.

just do a google search for free cron service

hmm interesting. Any recommendations on the free cron services?

easycron looks good.

thanks for your help fbkca. It looks like emails are going out now. Much appreciated.
