| Does anyone have any ideas?
PHP 5.2 was compiled from source, the mail path is set to /usr/sbin/postfix
in php.ini, and apache has been restarted. The mail path shows up in
phpinfo().
A trivial PHP script, written to see if mail could be sent from PHP,
returns this error:
*Fatal error*: Call to undefined function mail() in *
/var/www/junk/testmail.php* on line *9
*The docs say that mail is a core function, like so:
"There is no installation needed to use these functions; they are part
of the PHP core"
It's a UBUNTU server, so when compiling I sudo'ed and configure / make /
checkinstall (instead of make install) worked fine.
However, in phpinfo() under the "standard" heading there is no :
Path to sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i
like there is on our production server.
Suggestions and advice will be welcomed.

Further note: It was suggested on the php-general list that sendmail binary
was not present. This was a fresh Ubuntu installed. sendmail is installed by
default, but not enabled. I had picked exim, but removed it an installed
postfix.
Remove the package and recompile? How do you tell the ./configure that the
system is using postfix instead of sendmail?
