PLEASE Help with FormMail!
I have a deadline to get this form working and it's not!!! I don't know what to do. I don't know too much about form mail and I usually run the .wizard and it works great. But for some reason it's not working. I contacted the company where the website resides and they said it should. They have no special permissions or settings.

The form is here:

http://www.egetec.ca/contact.html

And I'm attaching the FormMail text. If anyone can help I would be eternally grateful. Thanks.

#!/usr/bin/perl -wT

try getting rid of the -wT

The site's runing on win2k and IIS and you shouldn't need that.

Just try

#!/usr/bin/perl

Not 100% sure that will work, but try that first before you go messing with the rest of the code.

Also for your address textarea, you have one too many quotes for the size attribute.

Ok. I'm now getting a different error:

The form attempting to use FormMail resides at http://www.egetec.ca/contact.html, which is not allowed to access this program.

If you are attempting to configure FormMail to run with this form, you need to add the following to @referers, explained in detail in the README file.

Add 'www.egetec.ca' to your @referers array.

What should I do?

from the above text file, you already have that set.

@referers = qw(www.egetec.ca);

try setting it using this format.

@referers = qw(dave.org.uk 209.207.222.64 localhost);

or something similar to that.

I really don't know, but you can try that.

just search the entire perl file for @referers.

each time it finds that string, see if there's a setting you can change.

basically what I'm saying is you may need to set the ip address of the referrer and say it's localhost too instead of just displaying the domain name.

so maybe like this.

@referers = qw(www.egetec.ca 207.164.233.6 localhost);

Not sure.

Tried that and still no luck. I'm waiting to hear back from the host now but the last time I spoke to them they told me the permissions were fine. So I don't know now.
