When users try to checkout they get this...

When I confirm instead of getting a download button I get this message:
Email Error: Could not instantiate mail function.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ashley

Are you able to use the Contact Us or the Admin Email?

Re: When users try to checkout they get this...

The question is ... do any of your emails work from anywhere in the Catalog or Admin?

What version of Zen Cart are you running?

Is this a clean install or an upgrade? If an upgrade from what version and how did you make the upgrade?

What settings are you using for the Email Options for:

Send Copy of Order Confirmation Emails To
Send COPIES of order confirmation emails to the following email addresses, in this format: Name 1 email@address1, Name 2 email@address2

What are your settings for all of the Email settings up to the Send Copy of your Order Confirmation Emails?

Has this ever worked?

Has something changed on your server?

When did this stop working if it worked before?

What changes do you remember making since it last worked?

Re: When users try to checkout they get this...

I sent myself an email through the system. It worked. What happens is that people get that message completely by itself on a screen and no download link. But, when they check their email they get the link to their account there.

Re: When users try to checkout they get this...

None of the links in the top of your site work properly for My Account Shopping Cart etc.

Could you post your file, from the server, without your username and password for:
/includes/configure.php

Re: When users try to checkout they get this...

What version of Zen Cart are you running? 1.3.7 (it says the latest at the top)

Is this a clean install or an upgrade? If an upgrade from what version and how did you make the upgrade? (clean install)

What settings are you using for the Email Options for:

Quote:
Send Copy of Order Confirmation Emails To
Send COPIES of order confirmation emails to the following email addresses, in this format: Name 1 email@address1, Name 2 email@address2

I did have a 0 here to make it to where it didn't send me 1000 emails a day. I switched it back to [email protected] which is what it was before.

What are your settings for all of the Email settings up to the Send Copy of your Order Confirmation Emails?

Has this ever worked?

Has something changed on your server?

When did this stop working if it worked before?

What changes do you remember making since it last worked? Well, I answered my question by replying to your question. It was that I had changed the email to a zero. I changed it back and now it works. How can I make it so I don't get 1000 emails a day? LOL! Thanks for your help! I really appreciate it!
