Laravel Error 500 in Controller when using mail() - email

I am sending a AJAX POST Request to my Controller #ReservatioNController#send.
It is working without any problems, but when using mail() it always resolves in a 500-Error.
class ReservationController extends Controller
{
public function send(Request $request)
{
$adulte = $request->no_adulte;
$enfant = $request->no_enfant;
$animal = $request->no_animal;
$vehicule = $request->no_vehicule;
$msg = "Test! $adulte - $enfant - $animal - $vehicule";
mail('abc#abc.abc', 'ReservationTest', $msg, 'From: abc#abc.abc');
return 1;
}
Why?

It could be your mail settings in the .env file. Also, try checking your log files for more details.

ZF2 application - Dispatch error event triggered every time

I'am working on a Zend Framework 2 application and have a strange behavior concerning error handling. My code in Module.php:
public function onBootstrap(MvcEvent $e)
{
$eventManager = $e->getApplication()->getEventManager();
$moduleRouteListener = new ModuleRouteListener();
$moduleRouteListener->attach($eventManager);
$eventManager->attach(\Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent::EVENT_ROUTE, [$this, 'onPreRoute'], 100);
$eventManager->attach(\Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent::EVENT_DISPATCH_ERROR, [$this, 'handleError']);
}
public function onPreRoute(MvcEvent $e)
{
$serviceManager = $e->getTarget()->getServiceManager();
$router = $serviceManager->get('router');
$router->setTranslator($serviceManager->get('translator'));
}
public function handleError(MvcEvent $e)
{
$error = $e->getParam('error');
file_put_contents('error.log', $error . PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND);
switch($error) {
case 'error-router-no-match':
$router = $e->getRouter();
$url = $router->assemble([], ['name' => 'home']);
header('Location: ' . $url);
exit;
}
}
As you can see I'am translating the routes. This works fine. But on every request the dispatch error event is triggered too. The error.log file will be created every time. But the redirect will be only performed if the route doesn't really exist. I think it depends on the translator or is my code in Module.php not correct?
Resolved!
The reason was that the browser automatically requests /favicon.ico and that was not available :-)

ZF2 - Show just one error on forms

I can't seem to get ZF2 to show just one error message for failed form validation messages.
For example, an EmailAddress validator can pass back up to 7 messages and typically shows the following if the user has made a typo:
oli.meffff' is not a valid hostname for the email address
The input appears to be a DNS hostname but cannot match TLD against known list
The input appears to be a local network name but local network names are not allowed
How can I override the error to show something a little more friendly, such as "Please enter a valid email address" instead of specifics like the above?
OK, managed to come up with a solution for this. Instead of using the same string as the error for all validator failures as Sam suggested above, I have overridden the error messages in the InputFilter for the elements and then used a custom form error view helper to show only the first message.
Here is the helper:
<?php
namespace Application\Form\View\Helper;
use Traversable;
use \Zend\Form\ElementInterface;
use \Zend\Form\Exception;
class FormElementSingleErrors extends \Zend\Form\View\Helper\FormElementErrors
{
/**
* Render validation errors for the provided $element
*
* #param ElementInterface $element
* #param array $attributes
* #throws Exception\DomainException
* #return string
*/
public function render(ElementInterface $element, array $attributes = array())
{
$messages = $element->getMessages();
if (empty($messages)) {
return '';
}
if (!is_array($messages) && !$messages instanceof Traversable) {
throw new Exception\DomainException(sprintf(
'%s expects that $element->getMessages() will return an array or Traversable; received "%s"',
__METHOD__,
(is_object($messages) ? get_class($messages) : gettype($messages))
));
}
// We only want a single message
$messages = array(current($messages));
// Prepare attributes for opening tag
$attributes = array_merge($this->attributes, $attributes);
$attributes = $this->createAttributesString($attributes);
if (!empty($attributes)) {
$attributes = ' ' . $attributes;
}
// Flatten message array
$escapeHtml = $this->getEscapeHtmlHelper();
$messagesToPrint = array();
array_walk_recursive($messages, function ($item) use (&$messagesToPrint, $escapeHtml) {
$messagesToPrint[] = $escapeHtml($item);
});
if (empty($messagesToPrint)) {
return '';
}
// Generate markup
$markup = sprintf($this->getMessageOpenFormat(), $attributes);
$markup .= implode($this->getMessageSeparatorString(), $messagesToPrint);
$markup .= $this->getMessageCloseString();
return $markup;
}
}
It's just an extension of FormElementErrors with the render function overridden to include this:
// We only want a single message
$messages = array(current($messages));
I then insert the helper into my application using the solution I posted to my issue here.

Zend redirector not working properly

I have just uploaded my app into a shared hosting environment and it does not seem to be working properly.
I have 2 plugins registered. One checks for session timeout and the other check for session is created after logged in.
the pproblem is that after the second plugin(security.php) kicks in it suppose to redirect the user to the login screen because session has not been created yet. Upon redirection the page displays :The page isn't redirecting properly.
I am not sure what is happenning since everything works fine locally.Below are my two files i mentioned here.
Security.php(here you can see that i have tried couple options, but nothing worked).
class Plugins_security extends Zend_Controller_Plugin_Abstract
{
public function preDispatch (Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract $request)
{
$auth = Zend_Auth::getInstance();
$moduleName = $request->getModuleName();
//$vc = new Zend_Application_Resource_View();
if ($request->getModuleName() != "auth")
{
$auth = Zend_Auth::getInstance();
if (! $auth->hasIdentity())
{
//$redirector = Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper(
//'redirector');
$flashMessenger = Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('FlashMessenger');
$flashMessenger->addMessage(array('message' => 'Sua sessão expirou. Favor logar novamente', 'status' => 'info'));
//$this->_redirect('/auth/login/',array(‘code’ => 301));
$r = Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('redirector');
$r->gotoSimple("index", "login", "auth");
//header('Location: /auth/login/');
//return;
}
}
}
}
timeout.php
class Plugins_timeout extends Zend_Controller_Plugin_Abstract
{
protected $_auth = null;
protected $_acl = null;
protected $_flashMessenger = null;
protected static $_ZEND_SESSION_NAMESPACE_EXPIRATION_SECONDS= 900;
public function preDispatch(Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract $request)
{
Zend_Session::start();
$moduleName = parent::getRequest()->getModuleName();
if($moduleName !='auth'){
if (isset($_SESSION['LAST_ACTIVITY']) && (time() - $_SESSION['LAST_ACTIVITY'] > self::$_ZEND_SESSION_NAMESPACE_EXPIRATION_SECONDS)) {
// last request was more than 30 minates ago
session_destroy(); // destroy session data in storage
session_unset(); // unset $_SESSION variable for the runtime
$front = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$_baseUrl=$front->getBaseUrl();
Zend_Debug::dump(time() - $_SESSION['LAST_ACTIVITY']);
header("Location:$_baseUrl/auth/login/index/timeout/1" );
}else{
$_SESSION['LAST_ACTIVITY']= time();
}
}
}
}
Any help is appreciated. I need to deploy this app ASAP.
thank you.
I think you want:
$r = Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('redirector');
$r->gotoSimpleAndExit("index", "login", "auth"); // Note the 'AndExit' suffix.
$r->gotoXXX() just sets the correct header and codes in the $response object, but allows the rest of the dispatch to continue. In contrast, the AndExit part immediately sends the response to the client and exits.
[Not clear why AndExit would not be required in your local environment, though...]

Zend_Auth Identity not persisting between controllers

Fairly new to Zend Framework 1.11 with Doctrine 2.
I have successfully created a login etc using Doctrine.
My current problem though is that the Zend_Auth instance works fine when I stay within the controller that the log in is within.
If I try determine the state of Zend_Auth::getInstance->HasIdentity() in any other controller it returns blank.
If I then go back to any page residing within the controller containing the login/authentication hasIdentity works fine.
I have even tried writing to the storage but this provides no joy.
My auth code is as follows which is the action called after clicking Login (Within MembersareaController)
public function authAction()
{
$this->_helper->viewRenderer->setNoRender(true);
$loginForm = new Application_Model_Login();
if($this->getRequest()->isPost()){
$usr = "";
$pwd = "";
$KeepLoggedIn = false;
$message = "";
$usr = $this->_getParam('username');
$pwd = $this->_getParam('password');
$pwdMd5 = md5($pwd);
if($usr !== "" && $pwd !== ""){
$GDSAdaptor = new ZC_Auth_Adapter($usr, $pwdMd5);
$result = \Zend_Auth::getInstance()->authenticate($GDSAdaptor);
if(\Zend_Auth::getInstance()->hasIdentity()){
$this->flashMessenger->addMessage(LOGIN_SUCCESS);
$this->_redirect('/membersarea/index');
}else{
$this->flashMessenger->addMessage(LOGIN_INVALID);
}
}else{
$this->flashMessenger->addMessage(LOGIN_MISSING_FORMVAL);
$this->_redirect('/membersarea/login');
}
}
Trying to seeing a person is logged in on the IndexController with the following code produces no results. hasIdentity returns a blank value.
public function indexAction()
{
if(Zend_Auth::getInstance()->hasIdentity())
{
$msg = "hasIdentity: YES";
}else{
$msg = "hasIdentity: NO";
}
$this->view->msg = $msg;
}
Zend_Session::rememberMe(); in the bootstrap solved this issue

CodeIgniter: Cannot redirect after $this->email->send()

i have the following code which sends an email from a posted form:
$this->load->library('email');
$config['charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';
$config['mailtype'] = 'html';
$this->email->initialize($config);
$this->email->from('info#mysite.com', 'Scarabee');
$this->email->to('info#mysite.com');
$this->email->subject('Message via website');
$data['msg'] = nl2br($this->input->post('msg'));
$data['msg'] .= '<br><br><b>Verstuurd door:</b><br>';
if($this->input->post('bedrijf')){
$data['msg'] .= $this->input->post('bedrijf').'<br>';
}
$data['msg'] .= $this->input->post('naam').'<br>';
$data['msg'] .= $this->input->post('adres').' - '.$this->input->post('postcode').', '.$this->input->post('gemeente').'<br>';
$data['msg'] .= $this->input->post('tel').'<br>';
$data['msg'] .= $this->input->post('email');
$message = $this->load->view('email', $data, TRUE);
$this->email->message($message);
if($this->email->send()){
$success = 'Message has been sent';
$this->session->set_flashdata('msg', $success);
redirect('contact/'.$this->input->post('lang'));
}
else{
show_error('Email could not be sent.');
}
Problem: the email gets sent with proper formatting (from the email view template), but the page then goes blank. For instance, if I try to echo out $message just below the $this->email->send() call, nothing shows up. Redirecting, as I’m attempting above, obviously doesn’t work either. Am I missing something? Thanks for any help…
Update
Traced the problem down to a function inside /system/libraries/Email.php (CI's default email library). Commenting out the code inside this function allows the mail to get sent, as well as a proper redirect:
protected function _set_error_message($msg, $val = '')
{
$CI =& get_instance();
$CI->lang->load('email');
if (substr($msg, 0, 5) != 'lang:' || FALSE === ($line = $CI->lang->line(substr($msg, 5))))
{
$this->_debug_msg[] = str_replace('%s', $val, $msg)."<br />";
}
else
{
$this->_debug_msg[] = str_replace('%s', $val, $line)."<br />";
}
}
The line that caused the error is: $CI->lang->load('email');
Go figure...
UPDATE 2: SOLVED
I had this in my controller's construct:
function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$this->lang = $this->uri->segment(2, 'nl');
}
I guess there was a conflict between $this->lang and the _set_error_message function which also returns a "lang" variable (see var_dump further down).
Solution: changed $this->lang to $this->language, and everything's hunky dory!
Thought I'd post the answer here in case anyone else is ever losing hair with a similar problem :-)
It's likely that an error is occurring when you attempt to send an e-mail which is then killing your script during execution. Check your apache and PHP error logs ( /var/log/apache/ ) and enable full error reporting.
You could, for debugging purposes, try doing this:
...
$this->email->message($message);
$this->email->send();
redirect('contact/'.$this->input->post('lang'));
This should redirect you, regardless of your mail being sent or not (if you still recieve it, you can assume that the redirect would be the next thing that happens).
My own solution looks like this:
...
if ( $this->email->send() )
{
log_message('debug', 'mail library sent mail');
redirect('contact/thankyou');
exit;
}
log_message('error', 'mail library failed to send');
show_error('E-mail could not be send');
$ref2 = $this->input->server('HTTP_REFERER', TRUE);
redirect($ref);
By using the above code you can redirect to the current page itself
and you can set your flash message above the redirect function.
