class Huntgather_Registration_IndexController extends Mage_Core_Controller_Front_Action
{
const XML_PATH_EMAIL_RECIPIENT = 'contacts/huntgather_registration/recipient_email';
const XML_PATH_EMAIL_SENDER = 'contacts/huntgather_registration/sender_email_identity';
const XML_PATH_EMAIL_TEMPLATE = 'contacts/huntgather_registration/email_template';
const XML_PATH_ENABLED = 'contacts/huntgather_registration/enabled';
public function preDispatch()
{
parent::preDispatch();
if( !Mage::getStoreConfigFlag(self::XML_PATH_ENABLED) ) {
$this->norouteAction();
}
}
public function indexAction()
{
$this->loadLayout();
$this->getLayout()->getBlock('registrationForm')

$this->_initLayoutMessages('customer/session');
$this->_initLayoutMessages('catalog/session');
$this->renderLayout();
}
public function postAction()
{
$post = $this->getRequest()->getPost();
if ( $post ) {
$translate = Mage::getSingleton('core/translate');
/* #var $translate Mage_Core_Model_Translate */
$translate->setTranslateInline(false);
try {
$postObject = new Varien_Object();
$postObject->setData($post);
$error = false;
if (!Zend_Validate::is(trim($post['product-name']) , 'NotEmpty')) {
$error = true;
}
if (!Zend_Validate::is(trim($post['serial-number']) , 'NotEmpty')) {
$error = true;
}
if (!Zend_Validate::is(trim($post['date']) , 'NotEmpty')) {
$error = true;
}
if (!Zend_Validate::is(trim($post['name']) , 'NotEmpty')) {
$error = true;
}
if (!Zend_Validate::is(trim($post['email']), 'EmailAddress')) {
$error = true;
}
if (!Zend_Validate::is(trim($post['address']) , 'NotEmpty')) {
$error = true;
}
if (!Zend_Validate::is($post['data-privacy'], 'NotEmpty')) {
$error = true;
}
if (Zend_Validate::is(trim($post['hideit']), 'NotEmpty')) {
$error = true;
}
if ($error) {
throw new Exception();
}
$mailTemplate = Mage::getModel('core/email_template');
/* #var $mailTemplate Mage_Core_Model_Email_Template */
$mailTemplate->setDesignConfig(array('area' => 'frontend'))
->setReplyTo($post['email'])
->sendTransactional(
Mage::getStoreConfig(self::XML_PATH_EMAIL_TEMPLATE),
Mage::getStoreConfig(self::XML_PATH_EMAIL_SENDER),
Mage::getStoreConfig(self::XML_PATH_EMAIL_RECIPIENT),
null,
array('data' => $postObject)
);
if (!$mailTemplate->getSentSuccess()) {
throw new Exception();
}
$translate->setTranslateInline(true);
Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->addSuccess(Mage::helper('huntgather_registration')->__('Your registration has been processed. Thank you for registering your product'));
$this->_redirect('*/*/');
return;
} catch (Exception $e) {
$translate->setTranslateInline(true);
Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->addError(Mage::helper('huntgather_registration')->__('We were unable to process your registration. Please make sure you have entered all required data in the form below'));
$this->_redirect('*/*/');
return;
}
} else {
$this->_redirect('*/*/');
}
}
}
Form submit getting error
(We were unable to process your registration. Please make sure you have entered all required data in the form below)

Answer 1

I think you got an exception while sending email. You should replace
Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->addError(Mage::helper('huntgather_registration')->__('We were unable to process your registration. Please make sure you have entered all required data in the form below'));
With
Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->addError($e->getMessage());
to get problem exactly.
