contact us emails not working v1.3.8a

Hi there,

I have zen cart 1.38 and I have installed on a new server under a new domain name, shopping cart works in every other way accept the contact us email section, I was getting errors on name being more the 2 letters, email address not recognised.

I have made sure everything point to the correct domain name in the configure.php

Is there any other files I should check?

I have tried all email configuartion settings in admin > email options with no success, php, smtp, smtpauth

Any ideas why the contact us email is not working? I have a template on the zen cart but even when I go back to default template it still does not work.

I can send email within the admin interfece however.

Thanks in advance, Jay

Just to mention also, since I changed the configure.php to point to my domain with www. now when I enter an email address in the contact us form it does not accept it, just takes it leaving it blank and says required field?

I also have a configure.php bak file in the includes, should that be there?

just wandering if this is an issue with COWA as I can not register an account either??

message I get on setup

1054 Unknown column 'COWOA_account' in 'where clause'
in:
[select count(*) as total from zen_customers where customers_email_address = 'email address ################################' and COWOA_account != 1]

I am so hoping that I do not have to do a reinstall of zen cart!

That version has known serious security vulnerabilities. There's no good reason to use it on any live site, especially not a new one.

ok looks like I will have to start a fresh then with 1.50

installed that on another test folder and tried installing captcha antirobot registration and that wont load, sql patch wont load.

Happy days

If you've got specific problems with specific addons, it's best to address those in the support thread for those addons.
