[3.3.x] Support Forum • Re: Email works ok except Admin not sent email when new user registers

$

I have the same problem, phpBB 3.3.14 fresh install.

The test email from ACP is sent. The acknowledge email to the new user is sent. Nothing arrives to the administrator mailbox.

I'm not using SMTP to send emails.

Email notifications are enabled in Administrator UCP for new user registration.

EDIT: finally the email arrived but it took some minutes, while the email to the user after he registered arrived almost instantly. As far as I can understand, the mail to the administrator is not sent on a time basis but when a forum event occurs (someone logs in? Administrator logs in? A new post has been written? I don't know...). The best solution I've found is using system cron instead and run every 5 minutes something like

Code:

/usr/local/bin/php /<the directory where phpBB has been installed>/bin/phpbbcli.php cron:run
You must enable system cron and disable phpBB periodic execution of phpbbcli.php cron:run by setting "Run periodic tasks from system cron:" to Yes (it's in "Server settings").

Ciao,
Max
