Pipe Emails

Hey,

I am trying to write a script for my ISPConfig install. I am trying to pipe an e-mail to my php script but I am getting this error:

cannot append message to destination file
/var/www/web7/web/network/email/email.php: cannot open file: Permission denied

This is my config:

.forward:

|/usr/bin/php /var/www/web7/web/network/email/email.php

email.php: chown - postfixostfix chmod - 755

<?php
// read from stdin
$fd = fopen("php://stdin", "r");
$email = "";
while (!feof($fd)) {
$email .= fread($fd, 1024);
}
fclose($fd);
$message = 'bla' ;
mail('[email protected]', 'Backups', $message);
?>

Any help would be great!!!

Many Thanks

Chris.

 

Ok,

I have made some changes and this is not working, I am going to look at other ways of doing this.

 

What's the output of

Code:

ls -la /var/www/web7/web/network/email

?

 

Hey,

This is the out put:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 web7_techtest phpmyadmin 211 2007-10-28 18:01 email.php


Many Thanks

 

Can you post the full output? I wanted to see the permissions of /var/www/web7/web/network/email as well.

 

ah sorry!!!

Looks ok. Do you get any errors when you run

Code:

/usr/bin/php /var/www/web7/web/network/email/email.php

on the shell?

 

I don't get any errors, it just sits there, and does nothing.

Thanks

Chris.

 

That's ok.

What happens if you do this as the user that should receive the mail?

 

Ok, ran it as web7_user and still get no errors.

Many Thanks
